Earlier this month, Dropbox began testing native Apple silicon support with a handful of beta testers, promising to expand testing to all beta users before the end of the month. Now, every time I restart, the Dropbox app needs authentication to do something. Following limited testing of native support, Dropboxs Mac app built for Apple silicon is now available to all beta testers.
#APP DROPBOX FOR MAC INSTALL#
So essentially for my particular needs the steps I followed was to uninstall the Dropbox app (I also use Clean my Mac to fix any issues) and then delete all the local downloaded Dropbox files (verifying that all my files were still I the Dropbox cloud). I recently clean installed High Sierra and the Dropbox app on my MacBook Air (due to replacing the SSD), and then used the Combo Updater to install the 10.3.4 update. Dropbox per my research said this was an Apple issue, but in fairness to Apple it is Dropbox app. My files are still up in the Dropbox cloud and so I am happy with this solution.Īt a later date I'll purchase another external HDD and see about downloading all the files locally again, but for now me and my iMac are running fine.Īs far as the Dropbox app and Catalina not working as expected, you may have to contact both Apple and Dropbox.


I then deleted all the files (since I had everything stored up on the Dropbox cloud, it took 6 days to up load 700 GB of files) on my local iMac and freed up my hard disk space. It will be called something like 'DropboxInstaller.dmg. The installer will download to your computer. The way we solved my problem was that I had to uninstall the Dropbox app completely from my system, and then all the files in the Dropbox folder were no longer synced.
