Hi Dai222, do you think you could send me a couple of screenshots, in order for me to have a visual representation too?

    Hi Megan,

    Yes, rebooted multiple times. Also uninstalled and reinstalled the app many times and unlinked and relinked my account multiple times. I have tried every suggestion I could find online multiple times.

    I have been using dropbox for many years on my old intel mac book pro with no issues. This is happening since I got my new M1 max MBP last month. I have followed the update instructions at least 10 times, but the update never finishes and the Dropbox is still in Favourites and not in Locations and the message Update dropbox to use it on the latest OSX is still there.

    Regards,

    Jan

    After the 6th attempt I've managed to get it to move location.

    Hopefully Dropbox will leave the location now as all of my "Open Recent" files (Pages, Numbers etc) no longer connect and I had to locate manually

    Hi JV04, welcome to our Community! 

     

    How long has this been happening on your end? It might sound trivial, but have you tried rebooting your device at all?

     

    Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
