Selective sync does not load folders
OS: macOS Sierra 10.12
I am unable to use selective sync. I open Dropbox Preferences > Account and click on Change Settings for Selective Sync. Dropbox opens a window and it says "Loading more fold...
Another update: As noted, letting the selective sync panel sit open all night with my laptop set to not sleep got it populated and I was able to start a sync.
The sync did not seem to be populating my Dropbox, but again letting things set all night with sleep disabled, I finally did get everything populated, so now I'm up and running.
It seems that both selective sync and sync'ing itself have become much slower since the last time I setup a new machine. But both did eventually complete given sufficient patience. Good luck.
