Sharing link Mac Dropbox doesn't work, and it says that the file has been deleted.
Hi! So, with the recent updates, and the issues related to syncing for the Mac on Dropbox, I've had some trouble with a process I've done without issue for years. This is only on the Mac version.
So, here's the deal:
1. I'll save a file from InDesign as a PDF
2. I create a link to the file, and share it with collaborators who need to view it.
3. If I edit the file and save it again, even with the same name, the link will no longer work, saying the "file has been deleted".
It used to be that the same link would work, unless I changed the file name. On the PC version, it's perfectly fine. Did something change, and is there a work around?

Hi sghayes1981, how are you today?
Did you notice that behavior with your shared links, only after you've updated to the new Dropbox for MacOS?
Also, out of curiosity, which version of our Dropbox app do you use on your Mac? You can find this by locating your Dropbox icon on the menu bar, next to your WiFi and hovering your mouse over it.
Also, do you save any changes to the existing files, or save as new files, with the same name?
Let me know more!
