    Ok I think it is working now.  Sorry for the back and forth!  I ended up disconnecting the Icloud storage drive and then reconnecting that.  I also redownloaded the Dropbox desktop app and now it seems to work better.  I've tested with several folders and they seem to work now.  Hopefully this will continue to work okay.

Hi, it is Mac OS Monterey 12.5.1.  I think the Dropbox is v201.4.5552?  I can't really find that info.  Now it is not letting me add any files to my Dropbox folder on Finder.

    It is working now.  I didn't change anything.  I am baffled!
