New Files Not Downloaded Locally (Mac)
Starting last week when dropbox automatically moved the dropbox location on my mac I have an IFTTT script that places a file in my dropbox That file stopped getting downloaded to my local folder ...

OK, I got mac photos to work by taking the photo library out of the dropbox file. So, that is fixed.
I still cannot get mac music to work. I get a message saying that the song cannot be located, I then choose my music library (some copies say "damaged" now that I upgraded to the new version of dropbox), but the song still will not play--I get the same message (choose its location). So I am wondering: IF I MOVE MY MUSIC LIBRARY OUT OF DROPBOX, WILL IT THEN WORK? I'm hesitant to do this, because it means I then have no backup for $1000s worth of music. But is it possible that dropbox is no longer supporting mac music???

Ever since I "upgraded" to the new Dropbox for OS Ventura, it's been a mess on my Mac. After a week, I have sorted out all the issues except for this: my mac/apple music app will not work, and hence I do not have access to about 100 playlists and 1000s of songs.
Here is what happened: I "upgraded," and once Dropbox was finished moving my files to a new location, the music app would work for a while (about 5 songs), and then suddenly stop playing. In order to fix this, I had to keep rebooting my computer. And then, after about 2 days of this, when I would go to play a song, I would get a message saying that the original song cannot be located. I've now been struggling with this for about 5 days. I've tried to open the music app with older music libraries, but none of them work. Has anyone else had this problem? Any solutions out there? Thank you.
