Two Dropbox folders after migration from old Mac to new
A couple of days after I did my migration I noticed on the new Mac there are two dropbox folders, the one that should be syncing with my other devices is called “DropBox personal” however, after the ...
Why are all the modification dates on my folders in dropbox the same?
Almost 2 weeks after doing the migration (on 9/24), and a week after posting this thread about the duplicate dropBoxes I'm seeing something that horrifies me which is the active DropBox does not behave as it used to on my older MacBook in far as little cloud icons appear next to the folders, and they all have the *same date* which was the date of the migration from the old MacBook to the new (9/24). This is a calamity because I routinely use modify date to sort recently used folders to the top of the list in the directory and having the same date, completely undoes this!
I want all the files and DropBox to be truly local and mirrored in the cloud. period. Then what does the grey cloud icon next to the file name mean vs a green check mark in a white circle vs a white check mark in a green circle.
Thanks in advance for any help.
