I tried everything that has been posted with no success. I started looking at posts to sort out the problem. I had to shut off dropbox to do anything cause it was burning through system resources like crazy. Thats when the sync stall started with me. I have very current model macs and I uploaded gigs of stuff to dropbox like normal. I know at least for me the previous post about file paths being too long turned out to be the problem. (by hitting the x at the right of their names Unlinking doesn't remove your files from the site, it justs breaks the link, which you can re-establish immediately using the blue dialogue box that should open up. Click on the x at the right of every device listed. on, click on the dropdown arrow to the right of your picture on the top rightĥ. You can Google 'unlink and re-link to dropbox' but here are the steps:ġ. It was a mysql folder that I didn't need to be in DB, so I moved it out and now all is fine. I then observed that it was stuck with 4 files, so I used Windows Explorer (not I.E.) to look for the folder that had the little blue circle with the minus sign on its lower left. But after a while, the number started dropping fast. Things went crazy for about an hour-db popup on the tray reported 120,000+ files syncing. Then I relinked my computer (in the blue dialog box that automatically opened upon killing the link to the computer). SOLVED, for me at least: I went to and unlinked every device.
