Hi Landsmann_5472x, welcome to our Community!
Have you already tried downloading our app using this link?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
Thanks Megan! I had not tried that earlier because I was already a dropbox member thru the old computer. I have now downloaded the app on my second iMac but clicking on the icon does not work! I guess I need some add'l help.

Hey Landsmann_5472x, thanks for the fast response!
Do you click on the bigger icon on your menu bar,
that redirects you to your Dropbox folder, or your little Dropbox icon next to your WiFi? 
Would you mind clarifying your iMac's current OS, along with the Dropbox syncing status of the app at the moment?
I totally agree with your help files complaint - I have a dozen tabs open of help files, and each help file refers to another help file. I'd rather have more info on a page with a heading telling me which part of the page covers my problem and my OS.
And for heavens sake now that there is the "...file server..." whatever version, be sure that help files specifically have a category for that app. It seems to have eliminated a number of expected features of Dropbox.
