At what point will we see a 64 bit version for OS X? It is one of the last of my always running apps that is 32 bits? While many will say it is not necessary to have a 64 bit version that 32 is just fine, there are background processes that run to support 32 bit apps running on a 64 bit machine. Since just about everything else has been converted by their developers, isn't it about time for Dropbox to make the change?
Thanks!
https://app.box.com is 64-bit.
Here's a list of others, but I can't speak for how many are 64-bit:
I am also considering alternate options. I suspected what had been causing my computer to periodically pause and beachball and with research and this post pointing to Dropbox, I've found the culprit. The fact the Dropbox would release a Windows 64-bit version but not even consider a Mac version says all I need to know. Goodbye!
It's scary to see DB going the way of Evernote - rolling out crappy new features no one wants instead of making their core product the best-of-breed. No one wants Paper, everyone wants DB to be faster.
I just uninstalled Dropbox and I too am seeing a much more responsive system......
I will monitor DB to see if they ever release a 64 bit app for OSX but for now I can meet my needs with Onedrive, iCloud, and Google Drive..... The one group I have that shares files on Dropbox can be accesses via the Web when necessary.......
What a shame to be the industry leader and now they are becoming the leader of the system slowdowns:-(
I'd also love to see a 64-bit Mac version.
+1 !
Same here.
@Rich R. - Can you at least say if it's in the works ? Or is it planned ? Or you decided not to pursue a 64bit version ? Anything ?
Ceterum censeo… +1. Yes. We’ve been waiting for years.
I add my support to this request. Dropbox is the only process on my Mac that is 32 bit. At least I'd like to read an explanation as to why it takes so long. Are there some technical difficulties ?
After Spotify has now also finally switched to 64-bit, Dropbox is really the last service running in 32-bit :/
Would be really nice, if that could be changed!
