Hi @_Aurelien_, could you let us know more information about this matter? What OS and Dropbox desktop application version are you running on your device?

 

This will help me to assist further!

It seems to have worked somehow after a while, but I don't know what changed... I tried the version from the Ubuntu software store, the latest release on the website and manually installing other releases.
At some point I gave up, and a few hours later I realized the synchronization succeeded.
Maybe it was just too slow somehow

Great news there @_Aurelien_!

 

In any case, we'll be one post away if you need anything else. Thank you! 

 

Have a great week ahead.
