DROPBOX PASSWORDS WILL NOT GO BACK INTO SAFARI EXTENSIONS

DROPBOX PASSWORDS WILL NOT GO BACK INTO SAFARI EXTENSIONS

Dropbox Passwords disappeared from Safari extensions and will not go back in.

When attempting to put it back in I get the following:

When following the prompt, the whole process begins again....a vicious circle.

My Mac is:

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015) with Mac OS Big Sur

Hi @CapnBuck, how are you this Wednesday?

 

Have you made sure that Safari is up to date on the device? 

 

One more thing: I suggest this link, which can be opened directly in Safari. 


Can you try it and let me know if this does the trick? Thanks.

Hi @Candace A.4, sorry to hear that! 

 

Do you see the same screen as in the screenshot above? Also, have you updated your Safari? 

 

Let me know.

Yes, Safari version is the latest: Version 15.2 (17612.3.6.1.6). I am seeing the same screen as above. When I quit and open Safari Preferences Extensions, Dropbox Passwords is not listed. If I click on More Extensions, it takes me to the Apple (Mac) App Store, where my only choice is to re-download Dropbox Passwords for Safari.app. I've tried deleting and reinstalling Dropbox Passwords for Safari.app. I tried restarting my MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021), Apple M1 Pro chip, 32 GB RAM, running macOS Monterey version 12.1.

Hi support. I'm also having the same issue on a MacBook Pro 14". The extension was working and then it vanished. I have tried all suggested remedies but nothing is working. Please help.
