Hi jkc-muc ,
Thanks for reaching out.
Could you please try doing this:
- Look for search bar
- Then type terminal
- When the terminal windows opens:
- Type the following command
sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --add /Applications/Dropbox.app
It will ask you for the password of the Mac next
After this is done can you please see if the issue persists in the dropbox app ?
Can you please test this and get back to us?
