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

Same problem here:

Correct:

Lightroom puts the deleted photos in the system trash:
MacBook Pro 2015 macOS Monterey 12.7
Dropbox version: v184.4.6543

Wrong:

Lightroom puts the deleted photos in the Dropbox .trash:
MacBook Pro 2021 macOS Sonoma 14.0
Dropbox version: v184.4.6543

Is there really no solution for this?

Have you gotten any further with this? I have had some emails exchanges with someone at Dropbox but have not gotten anywhere with it as to what is happening or a solution. 

Thanks John.  My files are also stored at Users/xavier/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox with no option to move it somewhere else.  I run the latest version of Dropbox and Ventura too and I experience the same problem as you do.  So hopefully someone will read these messages and try to find a solution. 

Version 174.4.5852

All files are unto date

MacOS version 13.3.1 (a)

When Dropbox moved the location of the dropbox folder it left a shortcut where I used to have it and I can see that but it's not importing properly into Lightroom still which is not a Dropbox issue. The deleting issue still needs to be resolved though. See thread https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Delete-edit-and-organize/Files-deleted-from-Lightroom-don-t-to-the-Bin-They-go-to-a-file/td-p/686262/highlight/false

Hi there johncocci, sorry to hear about this.

Could you let us know the version and status of the desktop app installed on your computer and send us a screenshot of how this looks on your end so that we can have a visual too?

Any additional information is more than welcome!

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. 

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. 

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. 

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

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