Dropbox Community ModeratorThank you for your feedback on this one Ian - much appreciated. I'll be passing it on to our developers for future improvements.
In the meantime, note that you can disable or enable notifications on the Dropbox desktop application by following these steps:
1) Click on the small Dropbox icon in your menu bar
2) Click on the gray colored gear icon
3) Select "Preferences..."
4) Toggle the boxes of the notifications you'd like to enable or disable.
[To remove specific notifications you already have in the notifications panel of the Dropbox desktop application, you can click the three dots at the upper right corner of the notification you'd like to remove, and then click remove.]
I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any more feedback or questions ianstudio!
Deleted notifications, all 5 or 6 years old, keep reappearing on the several Macs I run. I have used the elipsis removal process, described above, on 3 macs, each running different Mac operating systems (El Capitan, High Sierra and Catalina). So there must me some old buggaboo still present? Not a big deal; just curious how to correct if anyone knows. I suspect the macs are syncronizing from one another and not picking up on any of the delete markers. Perhaps I can defeat the notifications finally by turning off sync on all three macs, deleting/removing on each mac, then turning sync back on? I suppose I can give that a try someday.
Happy New Year 2020!
