Hey ginodimeo, sorry to jump in here.

The updated Dropbox for macOS app experience was developed to adhere to the requirement as set out by Apple and to ensure the best possible experience for our Mac users long into the future. 

 

If you'd like to elaborate on the issues you're facing while using the new desktop app, apart from the changes outlined here, we'd be happy to look further into this for you. 

 

Just keep us posted!

Yeah so the app updated itself and now i am stuck with an unusable version which is devastating for my work. I use a machine that has OSX 10.11 installed and I cant update just yet because of other software/stability issues. I need dropbox to access my library. BOOM now I can't. Thanks dropbox
