No option for "make online only" when I right click my files
I have a professional DropBox account and I'm working on a Mac, OS 12.5.
I have several files that are sync'd locally that I would like to move off my hard drive and make online only. When I right-...
Could you check if you've enabled the Dropbox extension in Finder in the Mac OS settings?
Hi Megan,
Yes, that's correct. I don't see any Dropbox options when I right click on any of the files or folders. I also don't see the circles with the green check marks, but everything is sync'd and up to date.
I did try uninstalling and re-installing the app. No luck. Any other ideas?
Thanks for your help!

What options do you get when you right click a file in the Dropbox folder?
A screenshot of this would be helpful!
I have enabled the Dropbox Finder Extensions in my Mac OS Preferences, but I still am not getting the "make online only" option when I right click on the folder. Trying to free up the hard drive on my MacBook Pro, as Dropbox tells me it's full. I am a Dropbox Professional user. Thank you.
There are seven Dropbox options that come up when I right click on the file in my Dropbox folder; I'm not sure what is supposed to be there, besides "make online only," so not sure what else might be missing.
I took a screenshot but can't share it here because it "exceeds the maximum allowed size" of 3 MB
Yes Mac extension is selected for my account.
