Dropbox StaffHi andy011, welcome to our Community!
On your new Mac, do you have the new File Provider update, where the Dropbox folder must be located in ~/Library/CloudStorage?
If you could also let me know the OS you're using with your Mac, that'd be amazing.
Can you hover your mouse over the little Dropbox icon on your menu bar, next to your WiFi, and check the version of the app that you're using there?
Let me know more!
Checked my old Mac (intel) and the folder is in: /Users/***/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox
Tried setting up the new Mac the same way. Unlinked DB, selected the new path and it says: Error with selected folder.
Can't create a Dropbox folder in the requested location.
Any suggestions?
