Mac Dropbox app not synchronizing in China
Folks,
I am using Dropbox in China through a VPN. I can access my files through dropbox.com. Dropbox APP on Windows computer also works perfectly.
However, Dropbox APP on my MAC book is ...
Hannah,
I believe the APP is working fine, just not syncing.
It says: "Synchronizing 24 files." But it never gets synchronized.
Thank you!

Dropbox StaffThanks for the update, helloyc!
Can you check out this article with some troubleshooting steps, to see if there's something that helps?
Hannah,
I tried the tips in that article, but it is still not working.
Most likely it is a VPN connection issue. Last week, when I was in America, it worked file.
Now I am in China, and it is not syncing. But I do have access to dropbox.com through a VPN. Not sure why the VPN is not working for my Dropbox APP.
When I wanted to setup "Protect more files with Dropbox backup," and clicked "set up" it says "looks like you are off line"
But I do have access to dropbox.com through Google Chrome and Safari. Maybe this has something to do with the Network Proxies setting?
