I'm trying to send a link to someone and I have the file saved to my dropbox but I don't have the option to share the dropbox link. This just started as I shared a link a few weeks ago.
I switched from Safari to Firefox and my share button returned so happy!!
I spoke to a senior Apple advisor and that was what he suggested...
I had the same problem.
I clicked on the dropbox icon at the top of the screen the gear icon then quite dropbox
dropbox icon>gear icon>Quit Dropbox
Then reinstalled Dropbox and now its back 🙂
I switched to Firefox from Safari and it works fine
I have the issue from today. I did the following
1. Rebooted
2. Quit Dropbox from System Tray, relaunched from App Menu
Nothing is giving back the Share Menu for Dropbox.
Use Firefox instead of Safari..that worked for me!
Same issue.
On my MacBook Air (latest OS, latest Dropbox) Finder Integration vanished.
All this did not help: Stopped/restarted Dropbox, Stopped/Restarted Finder Integration, Unlinked Dropbox, Uninstalled Dropbox, Reinstalled Dropbox
I can't believe it ... this issue has been around since Yosemite, and still no official fix in El Capitan!
@Daniel R:
please get a grip & relax, the world will thank you (and you will thank yourself later too)
concerning the issue of the disappeared sharing options
This solved the issue for me:
My share dropbox link that allows me to click on and add e-mails to share files in my public box is gone. How do I get it back?
Unfortunately this did not work for me. I followed the instructions exactly but never got the link functionality back. I can link from the recently changed files list, but not from finder. OSX version 10.12, Dropbox version 12.4.22
Not sure what happened, but suddenly the links came back... about one hour after the reboot... it works now (hope it will remain working)
