Where's all the links (green ticks) gone?
I know that the end of Public folder support is from today, but ALL links from my Dropbox folder have now gone. I can't share a file from ANYWHERE in the folder. There are NO green ticks.
I've ...
- I'm not wrong at all. See https://www.dropbox.com/help/9199 'Symlinks' section for at least one page where they say you need the original files in the Dropbox folder and links elsewhere. Just because its 'worked until now' doesnt mean it was supposed to.
And yes. Reinstalling will keep all safe. - Ok, I downloaded the new Dropbox (it's always done this automatically - why did it suddenly STOP today?) and now I have my green ticks back.
You did, after all, have a solution that worked for me. For that I thank you.
But why oh why did you have to complicate matters with all that nonsense about symlinks? They work, they've always worked, they continue to work. Let's leave it there.
What do you mean by "Finder integration"? I've never done anything like what you say before. I just used to open a Finder window and there was everything in my Dropbox folder with a green tick against it. Now there are NO GREEN TICKS. Not anywhere in the Dropbox folder.
Sometimes the ticks weren't there, but if I quit the DB app and re-launched, they reappeared. Not today.
By the way, I've just checked in DB Preferences AND in Finder Preferences AND in System Preferences, and there is nothing there called "Finder integration". You'll have to explain what on earth you're talking about.
