4. Download the app through the steps that it take you through.
Let me know if this worked for you as well.

Dropbox StaffHi Simran97, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
When you uninstalled and reinstalled the app, did you do an advanced reinstall of the app using the steps in this link?
Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?
This will help me to assist further!
Hi Jay,
Thankyou for getting back to me.
I have just purchased a new MacBook and at the moment do not have any VPN, or security software.
I have tried reinstalling the software with an offline downloader link as well, and it still has the same problem.

Hey Simran97, if you click on the Dropbox icon, then on the gear icon, then on "preferences", and then go to the "account" tab, are you able to sign in from there?
Hi Hannah,
Not able to sign in from there too.- Nancy
Hi from me as well, Simran97!
Just to clarify, did you also try Jay’s suggestion above, and performed an advanced reinstall?
