Hi Matt, I haven't tried that Dropbox download version from Rose's site, because I'm already running that version of Dropbox (not the latest) updated from an earlier install. However, someone on the Mac-Access list did recently install that version number of Dropbox after having problems trying to install the latest version. He got this from another list member, not Rose's site, but the version number was the same.
Do you just navigate to your Dropbox folder in FInder to check items? Maybe another list member can help with more suggestions.
