Many thanks for the help from you and your team.

Hi Megan
The icon says “Dropbox 159.3.5865 Up to date”.
In the meantime nothing has changed. The dropdown panel still says it is still backing up but at the same time it is up to date!

Dropbox StaffHi jhedleyj, do you have any files that are currently in use, which might prevent them from being uploaded to the site?
Hi, Jay
I have checked through my most recently used files and can find nothing unusual. I have checked through the files I have backed up and all of them have the green tick next to them. I have also closed all my apps except for Safari and stopped my Time Machine backups. No change.
Curiously, The folders I backup from my Mac are exactly those that I have stored on my external SSD but they back up at different times. The SSD backup takes place in the early hours when the Mac is not being used at all. I shall unplug the Time Machine drives and my SSD to see if that does anything.

Hey jhedleyj, while you're at it, you might also want to leave the Beta testing and after that install the stable version of the app.
I'll be waiting for your updates.
