The new macOS Tahoe is arriving. Is Dropbox ready this time?
Will Dropbox be ready in advance for the macOS Tahoe update? Or do we need to wait and see what breaks this round?
We all remember the fun with the last two macOS releases - and “fun” is putting it mildly. Have there already been issues? Can someone please speak up - before it’s too late?
For now, I’m holding off the update.
Thanks.
I’ve just updated to Mac OS Tahoe and had no issues at all. That’s great, I’m really glad DropBox was ready this time.
😊👋🏼

I wrote the previous message at lunch (I am in Europe) and when I went back to work on my AirBook later in the evening I noticed that the Dropbox icon was in the top status bar and everything was working as expected.
I have no idea what happened: I did not even reboot the laptop or anything. The only possible explanation is that for some reason it took a few minutes before the app became active after the reinstallation, so I had already left my home when the icon appeared.
For what is worth you can now ignore my previous message: Dropbox runs normally on Taohe across all my devices, now.Dropbox isn’t fully optimized for macOS Tahoe yet, which is why you’re seeing crashes. Try reinstalling the latest version from Dropbox’s site and ensure system permissions are granted. If it still fails, you may need to wait for an upcoming compatibility update from Dropbox.
Thanks for confirming. I’ll hold off on upgrading for now and will report back here if I notice any issues once I move to the new OS. It’ll also be helpful to hear from others who’ve already upgraded.
As of Beta Build 233.3.4870, Dropbox does not seem to be compatible with Mac OS Tahoe. Would appreciate addressing this.

Thanks tonysneed,
Could you let me know the specific issue you're running into? Where exactly is the breakdown happening, any context or screenshots would be greatly appreciated.
It’s been almost two weeks. Could you let me know what the situation is? Are there still issues with Tahoe, or have they been resolved? Could you provide an update?
Thank you.
Dropbox simply displays the message: Reconnecting to the internet. This may take a moment. See screen shot.

Hey cloudres,
We have not seen reports of any widespread issues with Tahoe. The discussion in this thread is largely the extent of it, and when considering how many people use the app we would typically see a lot more activity if there were a serious issue.
If you run into any issues after upgrading please let us know.
