    Gotcha RamblinMan!

    If you could also try one more step, which is an advanced reinstall that'd be great. If this doesn't work either, I'll be happy to open up a ticket on my end for you. 

    Let me know!

I've answered this question in my first response. 

Running Sequoia 15.1.1

From the menu bar, Dropbox 213.4.4597.  Says App Up To Date.  Also says all files are up to date.  For what it's worth, each time I quit and re-start dropbox, there is a small activity icon in the menu bar for like 7 to 10 seconds, then it disappears.  No other check marks or status symbols anywhere. 

I first noticed this about 45 to 60 days ago.

Hi RamblinMan, did you try out the steps that my colleague Hannah provided above?

    Not trying to be rude, but are my responses not seen?  I have tried all steps and nothing has changed.   (Edit:  I checked and didn't see the response either.  It had not posted so I clicked it again.)
