hi, battiman 

 

Support advised simply to make the folders "offline" or to read this article (https://help.dropbox.com/sync/online-only-mac). And nothing about new file management system etc. Cool, isn't? 😆

 

I really need to see the folders size and without this feature it will affect my work and business too ! 😡

Dropbox works more and more stupid on Mac OS Ventura...

 

1. Dropbox menu from Mac OS sidebar has complete disappeared suddenly and won't to appear there even when I've trying to activate and deactivate it in Finder settings. But after restart all looks like it should be.

2. Last 2-3 days using Dropbox I've noticed (the 1st time ever using the app on different Mac Os for years !) since I got Ventura the app every time calculating wrong estimating time to finish the syncing the files. For example I was uploading a folder with 15 gb today and it "says" 30 seconds left but it took around 30-40 minutes finally 😀 And this bug is happening with every sync now.

*and yes, the annoying bug with ZERO bytes in the folders on Mac OS Ventura is still alive 😖
