Dropbox not syncing certain files
For the past few days, dropbox has not synced a few specific files on my mac. I get this when I check the status in menu bar I've cleared cache, fixed permissions, and run check disk...

Problem possibly solved, but I don't really know how. I logged out of dbox online then closed and opened dbox desktop. Then I dragged the master file (with it's sub-files) into the dbox folder. I got a message asking if I want to replace the file duplicates (which meant the files were in dbox online but I wasn't able to view them before). I answered, Skip. The sync closed, then I logged on to dbox online and all the files were there. Let's hope the issue doesn't re-occur. :)

Having the same exact issue, and all the files that won't sync came from Logic Studio X (High Sierra). The same exact files and folders synced just fine, without any errors whatsoever from my Sierra computer, so this is most definitely a High Sierra Dropbox app issue.
