Files deleted from Lightroom don't to the Bin. They go to a file named "CloudStorge/Dropbox/.Trash"

Using a Mac. Pretty sure this is related to the Dropbox update as it just starting happening right after I updated. 

What I want to know is how to go about deleting the images without having to use a 3rd party program. That folder does not show up when you show hidden files and folders. 

Hi John.  Using a Mac too.  I have also noticed that since the upgrade you are talking about, the synchronising of files takes longer.  I am a photographer and when I synchronise a batch of images via Lightroom, I have noticed a slower speed synchronising. 

I haven't noticed that myself but I also haven't been paying attention to that either. 

If I delete an image from the folder in finder in outs it in the Mac trash so its something with the way Lightroom and Dropbox delete files when you delete from Lightroom. 

You are correct.  It is the way the new Dropbox upgrade interacts with Lightroom... But the problem did not happen before the upgrade.   

have look to that link talking about the Dropbox upgrade ... Link with info

Thanks for the link. I gave its a quick look (will read it in more detail later) but,  I have not had any other issues yet with the new Dropbox, just the deleted files. 

So in doing some more testing. I am running Lightroom on two different Macs and using Dropbox to manage my Lightroom library. Both computers are running the same version of dropbox, however where the dropbox folder is stored is not the same on the two computers. One my laptop it is in the Documents folder (which is where I want it). On my Mac Studio the Dropbox folder was in the Documents folder but when I updated Dropbox it moved it to  /Users/john/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox with no option to move it somewhere else. So why does the same version of Dropbox behave two different ways for where files are stored/ Also when I open Lightroom on my laptop and delete an image it does put it in the trash. The only other difference is my laptop is running a different version of Ventura Tham my Mac Studio. The laptop is a version behind the Mac Studio. I hope this makes sense what I explained. It doesn't make sense of what is happening though. I am not going to update my laptop to the new version of Ventura. 

Having a few issues with the new version of Dropbox for Mac. One is deleting files from within Lightroom does not put the files in the trash anymore but now outs them in a hidden folder that you cannot access. This is being discussed in another topic.

Second, which I just discovered is importing into Lightroom it seems you can no longer access drop from the import window in Lightroom. I hope I am missing something obvious. Lightroom is now located in a hidden folder which cannot be accessed in Lightroom.
