I am using a Mac and recently noticed that my dropbox is no longer connected. I have click on Account and [Unlink This Dropbox] is greyed out so it appears to be linked therefore I can't sign in again? I have tried deleting the app and reinstalling it but same issue.

Thanks! It worked for me as well after wasting much time trying to figure out why sync was stuck and network not connected while the account name was greyed out.

Proxy settings is what caused trouble for me as well. The defaul Auto-detect stopped working. After switching to No Proxy, Dropbox linked the account automatically and synced.
