From this version, very serious error (COMPATIBILITY with MS-WORD in mac with Japanese language input method such as ATOK. ) occurs!!!
As the problem does not occur without Dropbox running, I judged that this is the Dropbox's problem. THIS is really really serious problem for Japanese. Do you have the Japanese testers before shipping?
I hope you coulefix the problem soon. However, at the moment, I would like to know the way to keep to use the previous version (35.4.20).
Could you let me know how to stop the automattically update of the Dropbox application on mac?
I use ver.37.3.25. In the Activity monitor, I found several processes named Dropbox were running. If you quit/kill these processes except for the Dropbox (with icon), you will be able to use Japanese language input method on MS-WORD again!
(Some of them need to be killed again and again. Some of them, which seem to be unrelated to this problem, revive again. You will also need to restart the MS-WORD.)
This is an unofficial way. Please do this on your own responsibility.
Hi,
Thank you for useful information. I can use Word with ATOK.
Thank you for your kindness.
Sincerely,
