there's clearly an issue with Dropbox. Everthing else on my mac works same as before, dropbox no longer works after working fine for years. Dropbox: stop blaming on user error, the ether, or 3rd party applications, just put your heads together with the apple-mac folks and get it fixed. Dropbox should beta-test any updates prior to lauching to ensure a seemless expperience for users (regardless of what operating system/platform is being used). I'm guessing most of us aren't IT troubleshooting types, and just want Dropbox to function properly, always...
It was a great product when it worked, but looks like it's now going the way of the dodo bird.
