Is the current dropbox version for macOS known to be buggy and are fixes in sight
Signed up to a 2TB plan as I believe that Dropbox is one of the best and also can do incremental updates The issue is that the app on macOS seems to have constant issues with syncing and marking numerous files as "sync error" The same set of files on OneDrive does not do this This is on an M1 Max with 32GB running 14.2.1 Any pointers to fix this would be welcome as I've not resorted to using Dropbox through CloudMounter Note: The files in question have no funny characters in them. All are [A-Z][a-z][0-9] in format __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Update on2023-12-23: After doing a bit of further exploring on the forum, I logged and logged back in which resulted in: This created a folder calledDropbox (2023-12-23 10/51) - This I imagine can be deleted? When logging back in (after the initial sync) it asked for the to upgrade the file provider which I allowed it (which is strange as I did this previously as well) It placed the newly synced files in the same place as previously After an attempt to sync to the same set of folders, it had the same issues, but When creating an entirely new set of folders and coping all my files to them, I had no more sync warnings This leads me to believe that there is a bug and certain states that the software gets itself into are not "caught" by the app for self rectification. A suggestion is that devs should ensure that the app is more "self-healing" and also do some stratification of the generic "sync error" allowing a user to have more insight into what is going on I'm monitoring but so far, so goodWill I be forced to update Dropbox, and if so, when will this be, and what will happen?
My last post was moved into a thread that had already been solved but didn't answer my question, so it just hid it. I'd appreciate an answer to the questions below. I'd like to know if/when I will be forced to update to the new Dropbox? As mentioned, updating Dropbox and moving my files to /Library/CloudStorage will not work for me, so I need to plan accordingly. Currently, I haven't updated, and I'm continuing to use Dropbox perfectly. Will there come a time when Dropbox forces me to update? If so, when will this be? What will be the process? Will I wake up one day and Dropbox says I can no longer use it without updating. Or will it update automatically? Will Dropbox attempt to move my entire 2GB folder (and millions of files) to the Library/CloudStorage folder? What happens if there is not enough space on the volume? Will it copy some of it and then run out of space? What will happen to my Dropbox account at this point? My entire business is built around Dropbox, so if one day I'm suddenly unable to use my account, it will be disastrous. Thanks
Green Check Marks No Longer Appearing in MacOS Ventura Finder
Hi, I am running MacOS 13.1 on a 2021 M1 MacBook Pro. All of a sudden, several days after I updated to the latest OS version, the blue syncing, and green check marks no longer appear in the finder for my Dropbox Files. According to the menubar icon it is still syncing, and in the web version I think my files are still updating. I am using Dropbox v163.4.5456. I am on a Professional Plan. Are there any known issues? Any way to fix this? Any more info you need in order to help me out? I appreciate any and all responses
