How to add DropBox icon to Tool Bar on Mac?
I recently set up Dropbox with the new location, as per Dropbox instructions. Seems fine. But I can't figure out how to return the Dropbox Icon to my toolbar.

Super simple fix but it did not come easily. I removed a few apps from the menu bar and boom it showed up!

3 years agoHey LRicci, sorry to jump in, but can you try a test file to see if the app is actually syncing?
You could verify this by taking a look at your account on the website.
If you could also attach a screenshot of how your files inside your Dropbox folder look like and what options you see when you right click on them, I'd appreciate it.

I have confirmed that my files are syncing with Dropbox online.
I tried to attach screen shots, but the system will not allow them to transmit.
Right now, to open Dropbox, I click Finder/Applications/Dropbox.
I am unable to monitor the update. When the icon was in my menu bar, I could see it processing updates.
The recent Dropbox update moved Dropbox local files to a new location. I have no idea what else was changed in that update.
Suggestions?

I just tried to use Chat to alert tech support that we have a BUG(s) in the latest release. Unfortunately, my account does not have a high enough level of support to submit a BUG report (I can only access the chatbot or this community forum). If anyone else has a higher level account, please alert tech support to this thread. Otherwise Mac users are out of luck with the latest version of Dropbox.
