Hello all together
I have the same problem in InDesign with files that are only online and despair almost every day when I have to edit InDesign jobs where I have to locate the files in the Finder first and download them every time.
Now I have discovered a workaround:
- Open a job in InDesign
- Select all entries in "Links"
- Right-click on the menu item "Edit With" > "Preview 11.0".
- After all files have been opened in Preview, quit Preview.
- Switch back to InDesign.
- Continue working.
I hope this helps some of you.

4 years agoHey guys, thanks for reaching out to the Dropbox Community.
Weâre actively working on full support for macOS 12.3.
With this version, you may have trouble accessing online-only files in third party apps.
However, you can go to Finder and double-click to open these files.

Is Dropbox still "actively" working on a solution? we're 18 months into this mess and it's costing us time and money. What is the latest update on this?
