I have been just auto-updated to this build and the icon in the taskbar is now in the "no connection" mode, dark grey (but it is connected and syncing). I am on Mac OS 12.4 Apple Silicon. Also the "over" information when passing the mouse over the icon disappeared.

Same issue as Fabio L. on mac OS 10.14.6 on Intel: icon is grey, and no hover text.

 

Edit: Same problem on Catalina.

    Had the same issue but having just updated to Monterey 12.5 on my Silicon iMac the icon is now black and shows text when hovering.

      Thanks pineman . Updating to 12.5 seems fix the problem with the dark grey icon. Thanks for the tip.

        Nope. Using Mac OS 12.5 with M1 Pro and Intel Macs, and both showing gray icon.
