If you go forward with it, your Spotlight wont work properly any more: I would recommend everybody - DO NOT accept a Dropbox request to update to a newest version and to move your data to user/CloudStorage location as it brakes a Spotlight search o my mac system completely! Here are 2 screenshots: For my huge disappointment - the same procedure, the same result. But after I got an email from Dropbox encouraging me to accept the update, I thought, probably Dropbox team did some corrections and this time I will succeed. Hm.I thought I wont do it, because it was possibly a reason why my Spotlight didn't work any more. Dropbox asked me again to migrate the data, because otherwise I "wont be able" to use the all functionality with my macOS 13.1. So I installed Dropbox again like I described and it worked again perfectly. Hi, like I wrote before, a newest Dropbox update broke my Spotlight completely. I do not understand why Dropbox team tries to change a very well working system with a version which causes this massive issue. I do not remember that macs could be able to search with Spotlight their Libraries destinations. I think a main problem is a files destination, which a newer version of Dropbox tries to change - from user folder (where my Pictures, Music etc are saved) to user/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox. So the only way to work is to ignore completely Dropbox warnings. My files are saved again to the user destination. Dropbox tells it wont work with my macOS 13.1 but it does. The only backside of it is, that Dropbox asking me in a very obsessive way now to update to a new version - after I did a clean Install from an official Dropbox website 1-2 hours ago. Do not update! Dropbox will ask you about it straight after you do this clean install. Delete all the Data from new Dropbox destination, which I am quite sure causes this issue: user/Library/CloudStorage/Dropboxħ. Uncheck all synced folders in Dropbox preferencesģ. A new user didn't solve this problem as well - there were the same ridiculous icons of a thin Apple Finder.Ģ. In SafeMode I was able to open files and I saw file preview, but I still wasn't able to open same files "on place" clicking with cmd. First - usual process with a first level. Clicking on it with or without Cmd just did nothing. In a Spotlight popover I saw all the date from Dropbox, but instead showing a preview icons, there was a thin Apple Finder picture. I wasn't able to work any more in a normal usual way. I didn't take some screenshots.Ī Mac/Dropbox behaviour was quite ridiculous. Sorry cannot specify which version it was, because I deinstalled it yesterday already.
