My dropbox is set to auto import/upload my iphone photos, which it is doing. But it keeps telling me it's "importing photos..." and the menubar symbol is constantly the camera symbol that usually comes up when its importing. It's like its stuck.
Any help?
System: Macbook Pro, OSX El Capitan.
Same problem.
stuck at "15 minutes" for half hour.
No new photos or videos are imported.
Some files are added to [dropbox cache] folder.
I need to kill the app and re-launch it.

Did that many times. It doesn't help.
Exactly the same problem, but on MacOS Sierra. In the end, I gave up on using the Mac version of the app and uploaded the images directly from my iPhone. That seemed to work...
