Can please anybody explain how to make dropbox for on a m2 macbook air.

Please, just post a link to the right download link.

Downloaded several versions of dropbox installer. After installing and signing it, the blue square are moving... and moving... but nothing happens. So annoying! 😞

Hi @jk26, the link for the latest stable build on a Silicon Mac device can be found here.

Hi, 

thanks for the link. Unfortunately, my dropbox still does not finish setting up. 

I can download and install it, but after signing in, a window opens which says 'set up dropbox' with two blue squares moving. This process never stops… nothing happens even hour laters. 

What can I do??? It's really annoying. I have a new macbook air M2.

Hi @jk26, do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?

Also, can you try to install the Dropbox application using our offline installer, to see if you get a different behavior?

This will help me to assist further!

ok, this worked. 

I think, the problem was I just had to sign out from other devices. sry, didn't got this before. thanks.
