Hi Nancy

update to v164.4.7914 done automatically , indexation in progress

No more massage, all is OK

Thanks

Yes I have the same problem , I cant get rid of "Dropbox for macOs is ready" . see screen shot below.  is there a fix?

Hi , I finally found out how to remove "Ready For Update" of beta releases.  It is simply, going to "Preferences". > General and clicking on "Leave Beta" ( if you were signed up for getting beta releases ).  After that, the Dropbox icon in the Mac Menu bar no longer displays the warnings of Ready For update.    Hope that helps you all...

I don't have the option. I'm not using the beta version. 😐

I have this issue too. Just migrated from iMac to new Mac Mini M2 running 13.2. Endlessly tells me that Dropbox for macOS is now ready, I go through the steps and it then logs me out of Dropbox, I log back in and it starts all over again telling me Dropbox for macOS is now ready.

Has anyone found an actual fix for this problem?

When I had this problem I was using my wife's M1 iMac while my old 2017 iMac was being repaired.

I'm now back to using the 2017 Intel Mac and I no longer have this problem.

Sorry to see you're having this issue, glenncogar.

Have you tried giving Dropbox full disk access on your computer, to see if that helps?

I ended up fixing it by completely uninstalling the Dropbox app and then reinstalling.  Worth a try.

I've also been having this problem since upgrading to the Apple Silicon native version.  On MBP M2 w/ MacOS 13.2.  I have not granted the app Full Disk Access because it should not have access to the full disk (otherwise this is a bug).  I have gone through the update a few times and rebooted/power-cycled the computer multiple times.  I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

Hi all, thanks for your updates so far and happy Monday.

For anyone still affected by this, would it be OK if we reached out via email to have a further look internally?

Same problem here on Monterey for at least a month, probably multiple months. Interestingly, it happens on my wife's desktop but not on my own. Have reinstalled latest Dropbox, deleted preference files, run through the upgrade process multiple times, rebooted multiple times, etc. Have not yet resorted to our Book of Curses, but I will be cursing if Dropbox can't figure this out.

Hey glenncogar, I'd be reaching out to the email address that's connected to your profile here on our Community, if you don't mind that is.

As for you anonymous, could you clarify the desktop app's exact status and version as shown on the menu bar of the affected computer?

When it comes to your concern now BazHaze, you should be able to find the information you're looking for here.

@Walter, app version is 167.4.4719. Not sure what you mean by status but the app is running and all files are up to date.

Thanks, but granting file system access didn't get me out of the loop.

1) Is v167.4.4719 the correct version, or has the actual update failed?

2) If I check the  "advanced" panel that shows up in the "update" process, it says it is putting my files in ~/Library/Dropbox, and NOT the new ~/Library/CloudStorage location. Given the failure I don't have faith that changing that is safe or effective, so I haven't tried it.

3) FYI: The page you sent me to "https://help.dropbox.com/sync/files-not-syncing#mac-disk-access" has instructions which are out of date for Ventura. I found the control for Full Disk Access and allowed Dropbox, but the page needs editing.

Walter yes, please feel free to contact me at the email address connected to my Dropbox account and I'll try to provide you and the Dropbox team with the info they need to help resolve this issue

Hey Simon223342324, anonymous, BazHaze & glenncogar - I've just send you all an email to have a further look internally so please have a look at your inbox and we'll take it from there.

Also, thanks for your feedback about the Help Center article BazHaze; I passed it on to the team internally - thanks for flagging this with us. 

Same exact issue on 3 macs with latest macos.  Two Macbook Pros with M1s and one Mac Studio Ultra.

Hi bobbyg123, how are you today? 

Can I send you an email, in order for us to have a closer look into this? 

Let me know! 

Sure
