Pause sync and resume sync have disappeared!
In the past, there was always the ability to pause sync so that I could upload a backup from an existing file. Now there is a new version of Dropbox (99.3.488). The pause sync and resume sync capabil...
it's not gone. but it's stupidly hidden now. On Mac, if you click on the Dropbox icon in the menu bar, and then click on the blue spinning wheel at the bottom of the menu, you get the option to pause syncing for 30 minutes, an hour or until tomorrow. I looked everywhere and thought as well that this was gone. It's just placed weirdly.
Windows user here, on latest version of app, NOT beta. Pause/Resume Sync is also missing -- REALLY need this functionality restored ASAP, please!

Well, I can pause syncing but only options are 30 minutes, 1 hour and until tomorrow. Why I cant pause forever?
Oh, yes, you're right. Thank you! The "Up to date" green click or blue spinning wheel is now clickable without giving any clue or hint that it's clickable. I wonder why the support staff didn't point this out earlier. Thank you again!
Thank you, I was getting irritated looking for this. Dropbox keeps changing over the last year and I've hated every bit of it lol

Thank you for figuring this out!
Super irritating. Not only does it give no indication that this is where the option has gone---it also only works if you hover over a small part of the bottom bar (Windows Dropbox version 108.4.453). And not having the option to simply turn off syncing is also a major downgrade. What is with apps and paternalistic downgrades like these?
I am on a mac. just updated my dropbox to 111.4.472 and I am stuck on paused syncing. I hover over the icon at the top that is greyed out with the two lines that indicate paused and it will not let me unpause it. What am I doing wrong?
