Dropbox Issues with Mac OS Mojave
Users on Mac OS Mojave are experiencing an issue with Dropbox, their computers have become extremely slow. It works fine when Dropbox is not running. When Dropbox app is relaunched, it takes about 3...
THANK YOU, firstlooks!
Your instructions finally worked, whereas everything else had failed. More detailed instructions for deleting the hidden folder can be found here:
I installed Mojave on my iMac a few weeks back and everything worked perfectly excpet Dropbox which completely killed my machine. As werun our entire business through Dropbox, I had to go through an extremely painful 3 day process to revert the machine to High Sierra which is now running perfectly. Too scared to try Mojave again. Couldn't find anything online about similar issues at the time, but what you're descibing is exactly what happend to me. I'm afraid I don't have a solution otehr tjan to uninstall and revert back - itself a very complicated process.
I am afraid I will be forced to "drop" Dropbox as there is no way to make it working on my iMac (Mojave) and I need to sync my files, especially the 1Password ones

One computer has the old version of dropbox and one has the latest stable version and same problem with both. You, Dropbox, really need to do something to check what the problem is with your software and Mojave not keeping asking users to do stuff that doesn't help.
I have a Macbook laptop and iMac desktop both not syncing after Mojave upgrade. I did all the usual troubleshooting...quitting dropbox, deleting dropbox, reinstalling newest version, etc. None of that worked. These are the things the dropbox technical person recommended. However, it is clearly some glitch in the Dropbox software related to working with Mojave not my computers. One of my computers deleted the 770,000+ files I have in my Dropbox and then started "syncing" and reinstalling them after I installed new Dropbox software. After "syncing" for days, Dropbox is now working on my desktop but my laptop is still "syncing" the 770,000+ which really means redownloading everything. Presumably when it finishes it will be OK.
Hi running the version 60.4.107 and yes the "Early releases" box was already unchecked. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the Mac app three times but no luck: always in the "connecting" mood......

me too. I have spent months trying to keep my passwords and my system is way slow. on mac pro the drop box went away. on imac its still there. it doesnt even remember its own password. I am told by Apple Support --do this, do that. then again lost passwords , way slow, they dont support other platforms--I can't even figure how to move my account to icloud and drop dropbox without losing files. google mail also gone rogue since mojave.
any ideas?
