MacOS Finder - how can I add Dropbox back to the sidebar?

[Auskan]

Before I upgraded to Catalina (MacOS 10.15.5), Dropbox appeared under my favorites in the sidebar of Finder.  After the upgrade, it was gone.  I've searched many threads where this is apparently a common issue but the solutions appear to be for earlier versions of MacOS as the view I am seeing under Catalina does not match the solutions.  I understand folders can be dragged to the sidebar.  The problem is, I am not seeing the folder on the right, in order to drag it into the sidebar.  I tried the "go to folder" but it only navigates to the files within the folder - it never shows a folder labeled Dropbox.  I have the Dropbox App installed but it isn't helpful either as when I click on it, it opens a Dropbox window that, again, shows the files I have stored there.  I want to be able to easily move files to Dropbox or access them to attach to an email, as I could before I "upgraded" to Catalina (which is starting to feel distinctly like a downgrade).

I hope you're well today @dweinapple, thanks for joining the discussion!

You can navigate to the Dropbox folder through your Finder, and add it to the Favorites sidebar with the steps outlined here.

If you have any trouble with this, let me know and I'd be happy to help further.

Cheers!

I followed the steps but it did not let me drag it over

Could you let me know a little more info on where you're running into an issue, @Michelle M.40?

Can you drag it to the sidebar, but it's not being added?

Or are you not able to drag the folder at all?

If possible, please send me a screenshot of the last place you're at when you run into trouble with this, excluding any personal info. Cheers!

I had this exact same problem @waldbach. I promise you're not going insane. It must have updated way later following the installation!

This did not work for me.  Whenever I click on the Dropbox icon, it pops up a folder.  Help!
