Cant start dropbox on osx 12.6 have tried advance reinstall
Hi Everyone,
And thanks in advance for your help - I am on a Apple M1 max, os 12.6.3 with dropbox plus plan and have not been able to start dropbox for a number of weeks now. Have tried various ideas found on this forum including advanced resinstall but nothing has worked. Here is the output of the error log
Cheers..

Hey there grrrrdrpbox - sorry to hear about this.
Since this persists after an advanced reinstall, I'd recommend getting in touch with our support team directly for further assistance with account and device specific information.
You can let us know your ticket ID as well so that we can look it up in our system too, if needed.
In any case, please keep us posted.
Hi Walter
Thanks for your message. umm silly question but I dont seem to be able to find a way to get directly in touch with support and have assumed that my plan does not allow this... ?
Cheers Mike
