From last one month my dropbox icon on my MacBook pro showing 1 unread notification. I had no any unread notification on my list. i had finally uninstalled my dropbox desktop app and re installed but the problem remains as it is. please suggest me any solution for the same.

Hey @SURINDERVERMA, thanks for reaching out and happy Friday!

Are you sure that you checked all the notification tabs on the Dropbox icon? Perhaps there's one you missed.

Can you also hover your mouse over the Dropbox icon, for the sync status of the Dropbox app and to check if there are any syncing issues?

Let me know what you find.

I had checked all notifications for sure - it shows "all quiet for now". There is no syncing issue, All files are up to date. I have 4Gb of space left on my dropbox.

Hey @SURINDERVERMA - sorry to jump in here.

Could you try un-linking and re-linking your account through the app's preferences?

Let us know how it goes!

You should make clear that the process of relinking may take days!
