Ho installato Dropbox sul mio MacOs versione 12.1, all'avvio di Dropbox mi compare questo messaggio:

 

Impossibile avviare Dropbox

Solitamente questo problema è dovuto a un errore nelle autorizzazioni.

Anche l'archiviazione della cartella home in un percorso condiviso di rete può provocare errore.

 

Come posso risolvere questo problema?

Non capisco perchè parli di autorizzazione, il computer che sto usando è solo mio e contiene solo un account amministratore, non ci sono altri tipi di account.
