Transfer Dropbox Backup to New Mac
I recently bought a new Mac and used the Apple Migration Assistant to transfer all of my data from my old machine to my new one. This included the Dropbox folder and everything else. The migration went smoothly (in the past I have had issues migrating the Dropbox folder) and now I have all of my files on my new machine exactly as they appeared before. I used Dropbox Backup on my old machine, and so the Music, Movies and Pictures folders are stored inside the hidden folder titled "Mac" in the main Dropbox folder, and their original location is replaced with an alias. I now would like to set up Dropbox Backup on my new machine to backup these folders exactly like it did on my old one. However, when I go into Dropbox preferences, it asks if I would like to backup my Mac and shows all of the unticked options for folders to backup. I was wondering what the best way to setup Dropbox Backup on my new computer would be? Do I have to delete the backup, move the folders back into their original location and create a new backup? Or is there a way of telling Dropbox that this machine should inherit the backup of my old machine? I am still currently in possession of my old machine so I can access things from there if necessary. I thought it would be best to wait and hear the correct way of doing this, since I have tried in the past to fix things very quickly myself making the situation worse, as I have seen other people with similar stories do.
Upgrading hard drive, but keeping hard drive letter, how?
Hi, Dropbox is snynced on my internal data hard drive (D:). I installed a second one (currently (E:)), that I want to sync the DropBox to. BUT I really have to keep the drive letter (D:), because all my files a linked that way. Was is the best way to do this? I don't want to risk anything. Bandwith is good enough to sync fresh. Thanks for your help!
Dropbox showing up several times in Privacy and security > Files and Folders > Word on MacOS Ventura
While using Dropbox, I have been asked several times to grant Word acces to a file in some Dropbox folder, running (perfectly) on MacOS Ventura (I installed it on the previous version). Maybe this is why Dropbox is now mentioned several times in the MacOS System Settings > Privacy & Security > Files and Folders > Word, as shown in the image below. How can I remove those entries? I hoped uninstalling Dropbox would also clear them, but it didn't.
