I am beyond perplexed and exhausted, I have spent my entire day trying to force DropBox to finish syncing with my new macbook. It partially synced, there are several hundred thousand files that appear to have been synced, but I cannot force it to finish the job. It has been stuck for five hours on 'syncing is interrupted' and I have no solution. It has been indexing files on and off during that entire time without any progress. I have:
- Updated my OS to the most current version.
- Quit the desktop application multiple times and restarted my computer multiple times.
I don't really know what else to do because the application doesn't give you many options to manipulate the application.

SDRSF123, I’ve merged your post here, as it’s similar to the issue discussed in this thread.
Can you please check Hannah’s post above, and let me know what’s the file count that your Dropbox app is syncing? Is it possible it’s more than 300k files, which could potentially cause a syncing issue?
