#DROPBOX MACOS MONTEREY 12.2 1 UPGRADE#

(I was surprised I could do this as past experience is that you can't change sync method on the secondary.I was concerned enough to run Toolbox on both computers to check Primary and Secondary on both).Īfter doing the above, everything works fine. Then I did the same on the secondary computer. moneydancesync folder in its new location. Then I opened File >Syncing on the Primary computer and changed the Sync method to 'Shared Folder' and selected the. moneydancesync folder was then in the new location, ~/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox I forced Dropbox to start using the new ~/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox location by signing out, uninstalling, reinstalling latest Dropbox beta and signing in again. (Note Dropbox still works in 12.3 in the old ~/Dropbox location but does not have cloud only capability.) Just to come back to the OP about the effect of the revised Dropbox location, now that Apple have blocked Kernel extensions in 12.3. I honestly don't know, as the internet has seemed very quiet on this subject since end of January. So, they may have already fixed what Moneydance users would be concerned with, or they'll break it later, or maybe I'm 'grandfathered in' to the old method. And I guess waiting was good, because everything 'just worked' (yes, online only files didn't, but that doesn't relate to this discussion).Įither neither Dropbox/OpenDrive moved the files, or they did fantastic symlinks, as I couldn't even locate the Library/CloudStorage area. Obviously I had all hidden folders showing as I would probably have to look around for files. I was prepared to change to Shared Folder, and enter what I've read is the new location ( ~/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox ) I use Dropbox Folder, so the dropbox location is hardcoded ( /users//Dropbox ) This is MY experience, if yours is different, post here.

#DROPBOX MACOS MONTEREY 12.2 1 UPGRADE#

I had been concerned about Dropbox changes (moving the files to a different directory, etc.) but I decided to upgrade today vs. It appears Apple was about to force me to upgrade from 12.2.1 to 12.3.1 due to the security upgrades in 12.3.1
