I have not had problems with Dropbox since the update, but there was a time in the past when my Dropbox files did not appear in Spotlight. I believe the way I worked around the problem was adding Dropbox to the list of excluded folders in System Settings > Spotlight > Privacy then removing it, which causes Spotlight to re-index. I'm sorry I don't have a more scientific and thorough explanation. There may be other ways to reindex Spotlight. Regards, Chanelle

Spotlight search, any files that I have added since the update do not come up on the spotlight. I have tried making them the settings to where they're available online, or they're available off-line, I've installed the new dropbox software, and I've even reached out to dropbox without any success. I've also reviewed my privacy settings insecurity settings to see if there's any issue there, but everything looks OK. I have also tested it on my other Mac to see if it's duplicated and it indeed is. So I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing this, and also if anyone has found a solution. Thank you so much!
