Dropbox macOS Beta (fileproviderd based Dropbox) is an absolute nightmare!
I made the mistake of opting in to the Dropbox beta which is based on macOS fileproviderd integration, which the update notice insisted was perfectly safe. It is anything but. For the record, I am on...
pressing the "Leave Beta" button was the only solution that worked for me
- Add me to the list of people seeing Dropbox’s “Indexing” take several days. Yes several days (since Wednesday), I have an iMac 2019 and 2 TB cloud storage (1.6 used).
What’s worse, is my computer has become unusable too. It’s become agonisingly slow and my Bluetooth keeps cutting out every minute for about 10 minutes.
All this happened when I allowed Dropbox to move its folder because Mac OS Ventura.- Megan

Hi Ovi A.1, sorry to hear about that!
Can you let me know the app's syncing status, and version as we speak?
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there.
Hi Megan ,
My syncing status is just showing "Indexing"; most of my synced files show a :cloud: beside them, which means online only and not offline, I believe.
However, most of my files are actually on my (main) computer anyway, making the :cloud: symbol, in this case, meaningless.
BTW, Dropbox is still "Indexing".
I've paused syncing, and what do you know? My computer is working fine right now, and my Bluetooth is no longer cutting out.
Maybe, I should just remove Dropbox and cancel my subscription. Seems like the best alternative right now 🤔.
How you can leave the beta ? can you explain please, I keep having problems and I have lost hours of work on this
