Hi Eric

You missed one important step in the process I think.  After stopping the 
DropBox process, deleting the app, you didn't restart your machine.

I've found this to be important.  Remember also that, if you upgraded Mountain 
Lion from Lion, your existing app settings would stick, as long as they are 
compatible.

Hi Listers,

        I've followed the Dropbox tips carefully over the past discussions and 
used them successfully in the past.  today I installed Mountain Lion on my Mini 
and dropbox is not sinking.  it claims it does not have permission.

I stopped the Dropbox process in Activity Monitor.  I deleted the app 
completely from my mini and then ran the DMG of Dropbox from my desktop.  Also 
later I repeated and ran it from my downloads.  I tried both version 1.5 and 
1.4.

In all cases I got the dreaded Dropbox has no windows.  I was never asked for 
my sign in criteria.

I successfully followed this process and got Dropbox working on my Mac Book 
Pro.  So I'm surprised the same process is not working on the mini.

Tips would be greatly appreciated.
