Re: Os X 10.13 High Sierra & Smart Sync

Os X 10.13 High Sierra & Smart Sync

There's a lot of posts about possible issues with OS X High Sierra and Smart Sync. 

We use dropbox a lot and have only recently enabled Smart Sync for all users in the team. Can someone from Dropbox confirm what the status of Smart Sync with 10.13 is, we can't upgrade our system software unless Dropbox will work... 

 

Cheers

Ticket Ref: 7683435 - and to be honest I'm tired of your support team promising me they have a fix then asking for screen recording and screenshots when the issue is exactly as per screenshots showin on page two of this thread. EXACTLY THE SAME.

The problem seems to have been finally resolved in our offices with Beta build 46.3.60 and in the most current stable release. We have been holding off on updating all of our users to High Sierra because of this issue so we are happy to finally see some progress. Has this update worked for everyone else having the issue or did we just get lucky with the 3 machines we've tested on thus far?

HOLD OFF! We're on 46.4.65 and it's still a problem. We had one the other day where no matter what we did, or how we configured it, we could not get Smart Sync to work. In the end we had to use Selective Sync and told our users to just bring files down one by one as they need them.

Folks, quick FYI here... We just noticed Apple released 10.13.4. So in an effort to stay up-to-date around here, we installed it. As soon as we logged back in we recieved the following pop up:

This appears to be the normal behavior in allowing these blocked system extensions in High Sierra that we haven't been seeing or getting with the Dropbox installer. Now i know this was after the fact, so come monday i'm going to reimage a computer fully with 10.13.4 and then try and install Dropbox. I'll let you know if successful. STAND BY...
