Exactly the same problem here. It never seems to stop syncing. After syncing 250K+ files it sticks on syncing the last 126 files for hours and hours. Same goes form me, never had to install this beta.
I'm so fed up with Dropbox after fiddling for hours. Cannot reinstall stable version on the Mac because after running the stable version for a few seconds it's shuts down and reinstalls and runs the beta-version again. How dow I get back?
[edit: I should have first unchecked ‘early releases’ in my profile that solved the forced beta use. But going back to stable version is not without problems]
Same here, stuck since > 1 day at 'syncing 9.455 files'. Not happy about my dropbox folder location having been moved without asking..
New created files are not being uploaded, is there any way to make syncing work again without starting all over from scratch?
Such a frustrating experience and support also not very helpful at all. I would advise people to stay far away from these beta’s of Dropbox. I learned my lessons after a day of managing file/folder problems and ending up with a clean install.
Thanks Dropbox for this fantastic beta ‘experience’.
What I don't get - even after installing the stable again(140.4.1951) I cannot chose my local folder location anymore, it's "stuck" in /Users/username/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox. Any idea?
Update: removing the device online in my dropbox account and downloading the offline installer for latest stable (and re-sign in) did the trick. Now syncing from scratch but at least back in the old folder location.
