Lost Finder Integration in OS X 10.11 (El Capitan)
Hi,
since a few days it seems that I have lost the Finder-Integration in OS X 10.11.
Synchronization works fine, but I'm missing the Dropbox-Icon (in the sidebar the folder looks like a regular f...
I had the same issue and was able to get overlay icons back using by doing this:
- Completely uninstall Dropbox. I used Clean My Mac but you can do it manually using these instructions https://www.dropbox.com/en/help/41 Do everything in the 'For Advanced users' section.
- Do not move Dropbox folder to the trash
- Download and install latest version of Dropbox
- Re-login to Dropbox and if you had only certain folders selected to sync redo your Selective Sync settings.
- Save settings
- Relaunch Finder Option+Right Click Finder icon in Dock > Relaunch
Hope that helps.
I upgraded my macbook to El Capitan and the dropbox folder was gone from the finder sidebar. I signed into the dropbox.com website and downloaded dropbox, then I installed it. Still not in the sidebar. Went to the finder Go dropdown menu and clicked on home. The dropbox folder appeared in alphabetical order. Then I was able to click on it and do CTRL CMND T (also in the file menu) and that put it back. Apologize if that's not the problem the rest of you are having.
