Would you mind sending over a screenshot of the options you see when you right click on a file/folder inside Dropbox BasicUser?

    Thanks for that BasicUser 

     

    I'd also love for us to try one more thing. Can you perform an advanced reinstall this time using these steps? 

     

    If this doesn't work, I'd be happy to open a ticket on my end for you.

    I went through the steps in the linked document, which took a couple of hours. 

     

    BTW, when I issued the following commands in Terminal:

     

    sudo chown -R "$USER" ~/Dropbox
    sudo chmod -R u+rw ~/Dropbox

    sudo mv ~/.dropbox ~/.Trash/dropbox.old

     

    The system returned "unknown" or something similar, but I completed the remaining lines anyway. Then, I reinstalled Dropbox and downloaded and updated all the files.

     

    Unfortunately, the same problem remains.

    Hey BasicUser, can we send you an email, so we can look into this a bit more?
