No "Make available offline" option for my files

hi everyone

 

I used dropbox at work and now got it for me privately. 

But I do not see the option "make available offline". I already reinstalled the app, but it still diesn't work.

I'm on mac ventura.

Does anyone have an suggestions? 🙂

    Sorry to hear about this, beyon.

     

    Can you send us a screenshot of the options you do see, when you right click on a file in your Dropbox folder?

     

    Also, what's the sync status and version of the Dropbox app on your computer?

     

    Hover over your Dropbox icon to see this info.

     

    Thanks!

      Hi, thanks for your fast reply!

       

      Sure! Here's a screenshot.

      It states that it is up to date.

        Thanks for the screenshot, beyon!

         

        Does syncing work otherwise? If you add a file to your Dropbox folder, does it sync to your account on dropbox.com?

         

        Also, what's the location of your Dropbox folder? Is it in your User folder or in ~/Library/CloudStorage?
