    Hey vmkirin and bri_guy, I actually moved our thread to this one, since it's about the same issue.

I am having the same problem with the search feature for dropbox files but in Mac OS Ventura 13.1

Search feature works everywhere EXCEPT dropbox on the desktop version.  I can still search when I use the online version, but I don't use that much, so it's pretty frustrating not to be able to search from my desktop anymore.  Happened as soon as I updated to the new OS.  Everything has worked fine and dandy for years and years running Dropbox on my mac.
