Hi adamschoales; thanks for the report and following up on this!

 

I'm glad to hear you managed to get to the bottom of this and thanks for keeping us in the loop too.

 

Just a note on this, our most recent stable version of the desktop app came out a couple of days ago so you may want to give it a try too:

Let me know if you come up with any Dropbox questions, Adam; I'll be happy to follow up.
