Camera Upload thumbnail not showing on mac
I use Smart Sync I'm on a Macbook Air Ventura 13.5.2 I know SmartSync doesn't download the files to your laptop but I'm pretty sure I used to get low-res thumbnails of the images in my Camera Up...
Hi Pansy L., you need to specifically select the images or the folder with images, and then right click and 'Make available offline', give it time to download, and then right click again and 'Make online-only'.
I'm having the same issue! Came across your question when I was searching for an answer. Glad to see though its not just me.

Hey there Pansy L. & craftyweeks - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Could you please let us know the Dropbox desktop app's status and version as shown in your menu bar?
Also, can you check your Dropbox folder's location in the app's preferences under the sync tab for us?
Have you tried reindexing your Spotlight at all lately by the way?
Keep us posted please .
Hello,
I'm having the same problem.
I detected that this problem starts to happening in the beginning of September.
Yesterday I upgraded my macOS to Sonoma, but the same problem is happening.
So the problem it's not related to macOS, but happenings in both (the last one and the new one).
This is very bad, because the Dropbox price is too high if compared with others (OneDrive per example that is included in Microsoft Office plan), and this issue is happening again (last year we have this problem for a long time).
Please, fix this.- Walter
