Hi smallmultiple, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Could you confirm what version of Mac OS you're running on your machine, and where the Dropbox folder is located?

 

This will help me to assist further!

        In Logic, you can save a project as a folder or a package. I've already tried saving both to my local drive and they compile correctly as .logicx files. But when I sync to Dropbox, they exist as folders.
