Hannah,

Thanks for your response. I am running Mac OS Sonoma 14.6.1 - the latest version. I recently downloaded the Mac version of Dropbox which is attached to the Finder on my Mac. Its version number is 206.4.6506.  Here is what I am seeing.

The first picture is the directory from my external hard drive (that I'm backing up to Dropbox). The second picture is the Dropbox backup. As you can see, instead of backing up the Logic project file, Dropbox creates a folder for each Logic project which contains three sub-folders. None of the sub-folders contain the Logic project file. Which makes the backup, unusable.

Hi dgp09610 ,

Did this work for you? I'm about to try this approach.

Thanks,
