Hi Kunal and EMS3; is it OK if we open two tickets for each one of you and investigate this further?

I am having the same issue. This I really hurting me today with work. No Dropbox ICON in the menu bar top right of Mac OS on Ventura 13.5.1 (22G90) - Essentially I cannot access settings for dropbox. I need selective sync to get files on my computer and not through the web browser. No options now since I UPDATED to the new Dropbox folder situation after being prompted by Dropbox just a few days ago.

    Hey dillonpadgette, sorry to hear about this.

     

    If you don't see the Dropbox icon in your menu bar, it means that the desktop app isn't running at the moment.

     

    In that case, you could try relaunching it from your Apps folder. 

     

    If that doesn't help, you can try (re)installing it directly from this page.
