Cannot delete DropBox Folder in Public Folder on Mac
How can I delete the Dropbox folder on my Mac. User-Public- Dropbox
I cannot delete this folder (there is no option to move to trash when I right-click), and I can't drag it to trash.
- Hi kviavattine, is the public folder a smart folder in Finder, or a normal folder?
Are you certain this is the official Dropbox folder, and not the Mac-specific Drop Box folder?
I know it's a late reply, but I had the exact same problem. The folder transfered over from a different Mac on which I don't even have dropbox installed. The solution that worked for me was to open Terminal, go to the Public folder (or I guess any other folder in which your Drop Box folder is placed) and then issue the following command:
sudo rm -r 'Drop Box'
After which you have to type your user password (you need admin rights to remove the folder).
sudo is the command to execute with admin rights
rm is the remove command
-r means to delete everything (otherwise it will say there are files in the folder, even though there aren't any files in the folder shown).
The folder name needs to be between brackets if there is a space in the folder name.
I hope it helps some people googling this in the future.
