Issues with Mac DB Update (v175.4.5569)
After the latest update on my Mac Intel laptop (13.4), DropBox has been horrific. -DB folders placed in the Favorites sidebar disappeared, and I can't recreate them. Drag and drop does nothing. -...
I may have fixed my problem. My previously reported partial fix, failed after a reboot (Starting...:infinity:️). So I tried the new beta v 176.3.5105. Still a perpetual start (with no reported errors).
So I signed out of DB on my laptop, uninstalled the app, and deleted all of the DropBox related files. I used this as a guide. https://cleanerone.trendmicro.com/blog/remove-dropbox-macos-or-windows/ I needed to use Terminal to delete the actual DB folder in the /Users/"name"/CloudStorage/ location. Reboot. Then installed the beta (I'd burnt too much time with v175.4.5569 already). After sign-in, DB started syncing almost immediately.
- DB folders can once again be placed in Sidebar >Favorites.
- Copying, moving, and deletion of files is now without endless "Preparing..."
Everything appears to be operating normally.🤞
I've had all the same problems after doing the DB Update on my desktop Mac. My two Macbooks which I did not update seem to be running fine. As several people commenting here, this has been extremely disrupting. All the suggested fixes seem to be tentative, and they're also ones that only tech people could understand.
Please tell us that there will be a downloadable fix -- a new update -- to this problem!
