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.
😊👋🏼

Hey cloudres - thanks for taking the time to post on our Community and share your thoughts on this.
We haven't had any reports about any issues on this particular OS and you can let us know if you notice anything off if/when you decide to upgrade to that OS version.
If you come across anything off or a problem, let us know here and we'll take it from there.
I'll also leave the thread open for other users to jump in and share their own thoughts or experience as well.
Just upgraded to macOS Tahoe and the only app that's not working is Dropbox. It just keeps crashing. 🤦

Hey MD30
Is it giving any kind of error message or does it suddenly crash?
Is there a particular action that triggers the crash? Any information you could provide would be super helpful
I just updated to Tahoe and am having the same issue. I tried reinstalling it and it's still crashing

Hey ryhes34, can you also provide us with the info requested above? Are you receiving any errors, right before the Dropbox app crashes? Are you taking a specific action on the app, when the issue occurs?
You can also check this Help Center article in case any of the suggestions there help.
Other than that, I’ll make our team aware of this in the meantime.
Dell_Dropbox It repeatedly crashed without an error message. After reinstalling the Dropbox app, the issue disappeared.
It’s smart to hold off for now—Dropbox hasn’t confirmed full support for macOS Tahoe yet. Best to wait until they announce compatibility or early user feedback before upgrading.
Brand new AirBook, installed Tahoe yesterday.
Dropbox does not autostart after restarting the Mac.If I try to run the app manually, it just opens a Finder session pointed on the Dropbox folder.
Reinstalled Dropbox from scratch, no effect.
I also have a slightly older Mac Mini, where I just installed Tahoe, it looks like on it Dropbox works normallyHi Walter, there is a new api that allows the new spotlight to search cloud files - is Dropbox going to implement this?

Hi all,
Thank you for letting us know. As you're all aware, these issues can arise with brand new OS releases.
Thankfully a fix should be live in the latest Beta Release if you all want to try installing.
