Hi,
The folder has the blue sync icon next to it but I can't see files attempting to sync and there has been no change in the folder for over an hour.
When i click the Dropbox icon in the menu bar, I am shown my activity in the past 7 days and my team's activity. However, the details of the activity may be incorrect (though I cannot say for certain).

Hi,
Thanks, I don't have firewalls or network restrictions.
I haven't had an error message about low disc space.
I don't have a hardware issue or disk error.
Anything else you can advise or is there a part I'm missing? Thanks, R

Could you try enabling full disk access, which can found in that article, as you're on a Mac device?
