How do I remove Dropbox from my Mac if I get an error message when attempting to uninstall?
I am trying to delete the Dropbox app from my Mac, but it gives me an error message saying 'The item “Dropbox” can’t be moved to the Trash because some of its plugins are in use', even after closing ...
I had the same problem:
Open Activity Monitor (search for it with spotlight) and force quit the Dropbox process (I used the searchbox on the right to find it)
After that I could delete the application

I did a search for "activity monitor" and there were not results. does everyone have activity monitor?

It's not an application that someone will have. It's a utility on Mac computers, found in the Utilities folder under Applications.
