I'm experiencing an issue with smart sync.
It works perfectly for all my files, exept for Logic Pro X Files.
When I right-click and choose 'online only' it syncs, sets the icon to the grey online-only-icon, but within 5 seconds or so, the green 'local-icon' appears again and it's not synced anymore.
I tried to find which application is causing this, but I can't find it.
Do you have experience with this issue?
Thanks!

I'm running High Sierra 10.13.1 and Dropbox 40.4.46
Thanks for this info, but like you there is no way i am doing this for each session, its crazy why dropbox wont reconise this as a problem and fix with an update, I mean we are paying for a sercice and at the moemnt its not working as intended.
Same problem here, also got a thousand logic project files that won't online sync correctly..
And to do that .plist thing doesn't feels like the best solution either.
well, let's zip old projects and then choose online sync, then you at least save a couple of minutes downloading when needed but still feels very unessessary.
Yeah, totally agree it needs to be fixed.
Same here, not an option to unzip sessions for me either. Just saw that as the "best" solution so far..
Let's see what happens.
Just signed up to Dropbox Business only to discover this problem... Hope a fix will be sorted soon, this is quite disastrous if zipping each Logic Pro X project file is the best option! Edit: Also, the solution didn't work for me as I'm not running any antivirus software and this is still happening.
same thing here,
Logic files upload fine to Dropbox but when I apply Smart Syncing and Online only, they won't stay there at all, and will remain local.
It seems it has something to do with the plist file inside every logic Resource folder (which is inside the logic package), but it'll be a nightmare for me to delete the extension in all logic files or zip them all, as Brian L.30 suggested.
Has anyone found a solution?
Well, 4 years after posting this issue, I tried to give it a lucky go today. And guess what; it seems to be fixed.
Logic files stay perfectly online-only as I can see now on both computers (Mac Mini & Macbook Pro, Catalina 10.15.17 and Dropbox version 113.4.507. Who would have thought.
I'm going to transfer all my music to the cloud now.
