Mac backup 0% complete, 'Backup now' is grey, says will complete in 1 sec but no movement.

I noticed Dropbox Backup today, looks good for my needs as a long time solo user w/ a 2TB account.   Selected documents and music folders in my Mac user account, all looked OK then....nothing, no...

Thanks for your help Jay. I have deleted the download and started the process again just in case i missed any steps in setting this up, again not all files have backed up and remain empty.  I will give it another 24 hours and keep you posted if the back up progresses.

I have the same exact issue. Did you ever find a fix?
