Hey JimX, thanks for letting us know about this. 

 

I'm glad to hear it was resolved by quitting and relaunching the app for you. 

 

It seems this was just a hiccup, but let's see if Feriman still has issues with this. 

 

Let us know if you have anything else to add or ask.

Same error happened to me this morning when my machine awoke out of sleep.

Clicking ok worked but this is 2nd time in a month this same error has come up (though 20 successful awaiting from sleeps in between).

      Hi everyone, could you try reinstalling the Dropbox desktop application by using this link?

        This has been happening to me for several months. I tried to reinstall the dropbox app several times and didn't resolve the problem. I looked everywhere on google, but so far no answer. I doesn't happen all the time I turn on on the PC, but often enough to be really annoying.
