Hi Andrea,
I have figured out on how to resolve this issue and the app now seems to be working fine on my laptop.
All you would have to do is
1. Uninstall your Dropbox application
2. Ask your Admin to remove your account from the business team and transfer all your files to their account.
3. Once that is done, let them have you added back to the team. You would get an email saying the person has invited you to a folder on dropbox.
4. Download the app through the steps that it take you through.
Let me know if this worked for you as well.

Hi Simran97, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
When you uninstalled and reinstalled the app, did you do an advanced reinstall of the app using the steps in this link?
Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?
This will help me to assist further!

Hi Jay,
Thankyou for getting back to me.
I have just purchased a new MacBook and at the moment do not have any VPN, or security software.
I have tried reinstalling the software with an offline downloader link as well, and it still has the same problem.
