After updating Dropbox won't show up in Bridge
I use Adobe Bridge in my daily workflow and after the Mac update I can't get dropbox to show up at all. I tried making an alias, reinstalling, showing hidden folders. Nothing works. Please help. I'm ...

I solved this with two steps:
1. Enable "Show Library" in Finder (Cmd+Shift+H to open home window, then Cmd+J for view options, and check "Show Library.") Then I could navigate to User/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox in Bridge, where the folder now lives.
2. I added that Dropbox folder to my favorites, since that path is annoying. Up and running again!

Hi the1, happy Thursday!
You mentioned that you updated your Dropbox app, do you use the new macOS update on your device? If so, have you taken a look at this Help Center article, in order to allow access to your Dropbox files?
I would like for you to locate your Dropbox icon. It would be on the menu bar, next to your WiFi and hover your mouse there. That should give you the version of the Dropbox app that you use on your end.
Let me know more!

The updated Dropbox moves all your files to a hidden folder on Mac OS making it nearly impossible to navigate in Bridge. You can add Dropbox to your Favorites but the side navigation to browse files and folders is no longer available. It’s a huge impediment to my workflow, and I suspect many others given the amount of people having issues with it. I haven’t seen any good solutions, and Dropbox just links to the help article which is a way of avoiding the issue and is NOT helpful.

Agreed, This is a major problem for my workflow. If I can't view files and folders in list view, this makes it almost impossible to navigate a complex dropbox folder. What are they thinking?
