Making all of my files available offline on Mac OS 15.4

Hi TomasVEUS​ ,

It looks like Dropbox wasn’t able to sync one of your files because of a system permission issue. Here are a few easy steps you can try to fix it:

• Restart your computer — this often clears system locks.
• Move the files/folders out of the Dropbox folder (for example, to your Desktop), then move them back into Dropbox.
• Duplicate the files/folders — right-click it, select Duplicate, and let Dropbox sync the new copy.
• Rename the files/folders — slightly change the name (for example, add “-new” at the end).

Let us know if you need help with any of these steps!

In that case, can you navigate in these folders and check if there are any sub-folders or files that are online-only and make them available offline from there TomasVEUS?

Hi, Dropbox already has full disk access:

When I control click on the Dropbox folder and select make it available offline, it added the green check marks to many of the folders, but the cloud icon is still there and those files are not synced:

Hey from me as well, TomasVEUS.

So, just to confirm, if you control-click the Dropbox folder itself, and choose the "make available offline" option, it fails with the above error after trying to sync for a while?

Can you give the Dropbox app full disk access, by following the steps here, to see if it helps?

I checked about 10 of the folders, same permissions for most, including the folders that work just fine. 

Small differences in everyone as some folders have no access but that should not matter as tomasv (the user in which context the process runs) has both read & write.

I also don't think it's permissions because of the 2nd time opening and the file gets downloaded

Thank you for clarifying that for me, Tomas. Can you check the permissions of the problematic files and folders by using these steps and let us know what you find?  

It's the default: /Users/tomasv/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox

Thanks for the screenshot TomasVEUS - most appreciated! Could you also let me know the location of your Dropbox folder as per the app's preferences under the sync tab?

Sure, here it is:

I see, thanks for the clarifications there TomasVEUS - could you also send us a screenshot of the exact error you're getting so that we can have a visual of that too?
