Hello,
In catalina I am no longer able to drag files in finder into the dropbox folder. The selected object just sort of springs back into place and will not enter the Dropbox folder.
Hey Jane, Is Dropbox planning to come up with a solution? It's clearly not unique to any one person and Dropbox is going to lose a lot of Mac customers if you don't solve this problem very quickly. It's been two weeks of no constructive response or solution while the file mess on our computers builds up.
Agree we need a real fix to the issue but did you see my post that if you right click the file and do "add to dropbox" that works at least as a temporary solution?
I saw your post and tried it by clicking on the link but it didnt work.
Like this? (works for me)
😞 quite frustrating.
The files just jump back.
HELP DROPBOX guys ... !! HELP
Did you grant DropBox full file access? Once I did that I could do the "move to dropbox" action. Drag and drop isn't working still but that helped me a lot.

I didn't change anything but overnight the functionality returned to drag and drop. Elves or software engineers at work?
