I have to reinstall Dropbox every time I want it to sync on my macOS Sonoma 14.5.
On Mac OS Sonoma 14.5, nothing I do will get Dropbox to sync files across devices or between local devices and my dropbox server files. I must reinstall Dropbox simply to get it to sync. I have reinstalled Dropbox 5 or 6 times in just the past 24 hours. A check of the Activity Monitor shows that there is no other app competing with Dropbox. One thing that would help would be a complete list of accessibility and privacy/security settings to make sure I have all system preferences set correctly. If I cannot solve this soon, I will have to find an alternative because it is an impossible drain on time to reinstall just for syncing.

I’m sorry to hear this keeps happening, Hugh2024.
Did you notice this behavior after any sort of Dropbox/OS update on your computer?
Next time the app stops syncing, can you let me know its syncing status and app version?
Keep me posted for any updates.
