Can't Drag Files to Dropbox Folder in Catalina

Hello, In catalina I am no longer able to drag files in finder into the dropbox folder.  The selected object just sort of springs back into place and will not enter the Dropbox folder.

That is a little strange indeed chrisreedfilm. :thinking:

 

Do you get any errors at all when trying to move Word files into Dropbox? If so, please send along a screenshot of that, excluding any personal info.

 

Also, can you let me know which version of the desktop app you have installed?

 

Keep me posted!

I am not going to place a terminal command, when I have no idea what this is going to do.  

 

I have found an alernate soultion by using 2 additional apps. One is DropZone and the other is Yoinx.
