I had this same problem when I updated one computer to a different operating system (from Windows XP to Windows 7). I discovered the problem was that the PATH name was now different that the other computer. I moved the dropbox folder so the PATH to it was the same on both computers, and that solved the problem. Another poster suggested a setting in Legacy 8, but I haven't tried that as I solved my problem by moving the dropbox folder so the PATH was the same on both computers.
