Set all folders to "make available offline" on macOS
In the new macOS FileProvider API version of Dropbox, is it possible to recursively set all folders to "make available offline"? If so, does this setting persist for newly added sub-folders? I've r...
Yes, marking a folder as available offline will make all subfolders available offline as well, in perpetuity.
I am using MAC and I had to install Dropbox again (Dropbox Professional with 3 TB). However, now after re installing Dropbox, all my Dropbox files can be opened only when I am online. When I open a file, then it is also stored in my MAC.
How do I get all those files also stored in my MAC (as they have been there)?

Hey Katriina, thanks for your post today!
If you want to make all your Dropbox files available offline, so you don't need to be connected to the internet to access them, simply right click on the Dropbox folder itself and choose "make available offline".
Keep in mind that offline files will take up space on your hard drive.
I hope this helps!
Hi Hannah, right click function does not work when using MAC. What is the alternative way of doing what you suggested? And on other question: what to do if I want to choose certain folders which are accessible when working offline?

If you control-click on files to get the context menu to make them available offline, the same principle will work for the Dropbox folder itself.
Do you see a different behavior on your end?
Could you also please clarify your second question?
