    What version of Dropbox are you running? Have you tried a reinstall yet? Can you provide a screenshot of the options that you do get?

    It hasn't been called Smart Sync for a while now. When you right-click on a file or folder in your Dropbox folder, look for Make available offline and Make online-only.
