Turning on dropbox backup but folder name is weird
I had tested the Dropbox Backup feature in the past so I know that when turned on my Computers should be added as My Mac (Unique Mac Name). I decided to turn it back on again when setting up two new ...
OK, they are finally rolling up a Beta update for Dropbox Backup that will let you rename and I was able to do it! You can do go through Dropbox Backup in the app, disable the backups on all the computers there, and then restart them. Then, re-enable backups and it should move you over to beta so you can now rename things!

Dropbox Community ModeratorHey SNANA51832, thanks for the update here.
You won't really be able to rename the PC(2) folder, I'm afraid.
And even though the computer was unlinked, it's still the same computer, and Dropbox recognizes that, so the backup folder will keep getting named 'PC(2)'.
Now, since the first 'PC' folder is empty, though, now that that computer is unlinked, were you able to delete it?

Hannah It has been 2 years, and we still can't rename the sync folder at DropBox. I followed the step, tried to unlink and relink the device. Now here we go: it's been like Mac (1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(1)(2)(1).
I even can't understand how you can allow this happened.
HOW HARD IS IT FOR YOUR DEVELOPER TO JUST LET YOUR USERS CHOOSE THE FOLDER NAME THEY WANT TO USE?
