- Hi everyone,We wanted to provide an update on availability of full support for macOS 12.5 and higher to more customers.

We’re also working directly with a small subset of customers with complex configurations to ensure their migration is as seamless as possible.Here’s how you can join our beta:
- Basic, Plus, Professional, and Family plan customers: Turn on early releases and keep an eye out for a notification to opt-in

The updated experience is more integrated with macOS and comes with some changes that are consistent with macOS requirements. For more information, please visit our Help Center.Thank you.
Jay I'm referring to the beta version of Dropbox. Version 12.3.1 of Mac OS is a final release, not a beta version, and each day its prompting to update (for security reasons) in all my workers screen. As we use a business account with laptops, all the critical data is stored online, and Dropbox automatically keeps our limited storage hard drives free of outdated documents. That's the key selling point for us. We open/close hundreds of documents each day, from thousands of different folders.
Now the dilemma is: do we update to the latest Mac OS release (for security reasons) and then keep our hard drives free by manually syncing files (losing a precious time), or keep the previous version of Mac OS (12.2) in order to allow the correct function of Dropbox (but at a risk of being attacked by some of the 30 security unpatched holes in the operating system)
This is exactly the same issue for my company. Dropbox needs to address this issue by giving us regular updates on the status of this problem. We have some hard decisions to make and we have no idea when this issue will be resolved.
