Create, upload, and share
Find help to solve issues with creating, uploading, and sharing files and folders in Dropbox. Get support and advice from the Dropbox Community.
The dropbox menu bar app has stopped showing the time left in the current sync in the bottom of the window. It shows a seemingly irrelevant progress bar but even hovering over that does not tell me the time left to sync, which I have depended on to let clients know when files will be there. Hovering over only gives me the option to pause syncing. Was this feature removed or is this a bug in the latest update?
I'm on Mac OS Sierra 10.12.6
Well, can you share how to solve it please?

Are you going to do anything to help us solve the issue? I havent been contacted by anyone.
Having the same problem too!! I dropbox video content remotely and need to let my office know how long till everything is uploaded, however I no longer get an estimate of time left for sync to complete.
i have the same issue... the 'time remaining' is missing from my dropdown too. it used to appear when you click on the dropbox icon in the menu bar. it was at the bottom of the dropdown window. not there anymore! please put it back! i also have clients that i need to inform when their download will be ready.
I'm also having this problem. It just shows the connection speed, whereas it used to display the time remaining. Extremely inconvenient and I'd appreciate some sort of update on when this will be fixed.
