Upload app sync speed is very slow on macOS.
macOS: Sonoma 14.6.1
Dropbox desktop App, auto update is on, currently v209.4.3661
Dropbox Advanced - 310TB
Speed Test: 110Mbps Download/24Mbps Upload
Been using dropbox for 10+ years wit...
I might've fixed it.
I logged out of dropbox then uninstalled and reinstalled dropbox.
Logged back in.
It has a lot of indexing to do but it is moving quickly, I'll let it run overnight and reassess in the morning.
Same issue here but reinstall didn't help. Also what's weirder is it's only happening on one computer on the network. Laptop runs fine. Desktop is mucked
You may have already done this, but just in case... make sure all files are 'Online Only'. My issue was on my desktop and not my laptop... but I realized one of my larger folders was set to save locally and it took up all my hard drive space. I made it 'Online Only' and things got back to normal.
I desire it to live locally though and I've set it to an external drive. One thought is to try it on the local ssd but this doesn't explain the slow browser upload. It's almost as if something in the MacOS doesn't like the Dropbox servers
Understood. Another thing is to make sure MacOS is up to date (if it's not already). Of course, sometimes updates can cause these problems, too. Hope you figure it out!
