When I access the app's settings, it won't allow me to switch my files to "available offline".
when i go into settings/preferences/sync...it has 'online only' enabled now by default and it will not allow me to select the 'available offline' option
i click on it and nothing happens, ive tried restarting everything. its strange...the mouse cursor will change to the finger when i hover it over the little round check box...but nothing happens when i click it
i selectively sync the folders i want on my desktop actively, and i want them to be actually offline and on my harddrive locally.

Hey justin h.2, let's jump right into this!
I'd like to check the version of the app that you're using. Could you try hovering your mouse over the little Dropbox icon on your menu/task bar, next to your WiFi and let me know?
Also, do you have any screenshots of the behavior that you mentioned?
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
