Right-click options missing in MacOS.

Hey cloudstoragelover, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

Can you please send us a screenshot of the app's exact status and version as shown in your menu bar?

Also, did you give Dropbox full disk access as outlined here?

For more information about the new desktop app on your Mac, you can have a look here.

I hope this helps and please keep me posted!

Thanks Walter. Here's the status/version, and full disk access was not enabled, but I enabled it and there's no change. 

Hi from me as well, cloudstoragelover!

Just to make sure I get this right, you’re able to see syncing icons next to your Dropbox files on the app; it’s just the context menu options that don’t appear, when right clicking. Correct? 

When quitting/relaunching your Finder, did you follow the exact steps showing below? 

Click on the Apple logo located at the top-left of the screen.

Click on System Preferences.

Click on Extensions.

Click on Finder Extensions.

Only leave Dropbox Finder Integration ticked.

Once this is completed, close the window.

Click one more time on the Apple logo at the top-left of the screen.

Click on Force Quit.

Look for Finder on the list.

Click on Finder then Relaunch.

Thanks Nancy . Here's a summary. 

Right-click options do not exist for files that are not in Dropbox. This is my main issue as I use two computers that share this folder. I have to manually copy them to the Dropbox folder now. 

In my Dropbox I can right-click and share files normally, etc. None of those files have a "sync" icon but i don't mind that. 

In addition, I can no longer drag files from Finder into the Dropbox shortcut listed under "favorites" in Finder. I get a circle with a line through it. 

Files that are moved into Dropbox from my 2nd computer appear with a "cloud" icon below them, so I have to download them to use them. 

I followed your steps above, and note that with MacOS Ventura the "settings" have changed so you might want to redo your wording for that. Regardless, I found extensions, left Dropbox enabled, restarted Finder, and it did not change anything. I quite both Dropbox and relaunched Finder, no change. 

Hi cloudstoragelover, could you clarify if this behavior is only occurring on the one Mac OS device?

Is the Dropbox folder located in the CloudStorage location for all your devices, or just this one?

Hi Jay  - yes, just one MacOS device. I have an M1 air and a windows PC that both share the folder. On the Mac it's in 

/Users/myname/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox

So when I put a file into the folder from my PC, a cloud icon appears next to it on my Mac and I have to download the file, and this was never the case previously. Not a huge deal as it downloads instantly, just a strange behavior that is new. Nothing has changed hardware-wise or software-wise on these machines, except the moving of the folder that was mandated by Dropbox a few weeks ago. I suspect that is the catalyst but don't have any proof. 

Hey cloudstoragelover, the fact that new files added by other computers, sync as online-only (cloud icon), is expected behavior with the Dropbox for macOS app.

You can see that and other expected changes in this article, that Walter hyperlinked in his reply before.

As for the right-click menu items, are they missing from files that are actually within the Dropbox folder?

Hi Hannah Thanks for your reply. 

The files in Dropbox have normal right-click options yes. Here's some additional screens to show my settings. 

Thanks Jay  - I appreciate the explanation, but am very unhappy about this. Do you know if it was an Apple thing? I used that "send to Dropbox" option all the time, and I can't drag files onto the Dropbox shortcut anymore either 😞

Regardless, I appreciate the help.
