Waiting to sync (Mac)

Is it possible to see which files are syncing based upon the icons of the folders in Finder?
If so try moving the folder/directory out of Dropbox to say desktop, let it sync to clear icon/up to date and then return it the folder. That usually works.

Are you on a personal or company-managed device? Could you try reinstalling the Dropbox desktop application with admin privileges?
personal mac. did reinstall but still have the issue.
The same errors after reinstallation. I don't know which 15 files are pending syncing but they are small (2kb et al).

Do you see a Dropbox cache folder in your Dropbox folder? Could you delete that folder?
I could not find the folder in the dropbox folder. I did locate that in early versions.
