I ended up finding a workaround by exporting my google account and directly uploading to dropbox. Thanks for checking.
Hi Nancy, Thanks for getting back to me! I still have the same issue with other web browsers. I'm remembering that I renamed the created folder Uploaded from Google Drive to something else while it was trying to import everything, which may have caused it to stop. Besides that, I don't remember any error messages. I got a notification that 0 out of ~6244 file(s) couldn't be uploaded to dropbox.

Dropbox StaffHey jlmoore314, sorry to jump in here, but I was wondering; is it possible that you were using another Dropbox account of yours (associated with a different email address) when the option disappeared?
I'm pretty sure no because half the uploaded files are in the proper folder on my personal dropbox account. The sync just didn't finish and now I can no longer sync. Maybe I am misunderstanding your question?
