Hey chwynn! Please try clicking on the small camera icon that should be showing right above your message box (right before you post your reply).

The Dropbox Icon is the fourth from the left

 

Does anyone have any ideas how I can solve this? The status has been the same for the past 2 days.

    Hi chwynn, thanks for the info. From what you described, your Linux OS isn't officially support according to our requirements, so the amount of support we can provide is limited. 

     

    When you uninstalled and reinstalled the app, did you perform an advanced reinstallation?
