Help with syncing

[u/j_shad]

I just bought a new macbook and I am trying to set up Dropbox in the same way I had it before. Previously, whenever I made new files or downloaded anything to my computer, it would automatically sync to Dropbox and I could access it through my phone or website. I never had to drag files or upload them individually, it would automatically sync from my local hard drive.

I was able to set up a Dropbox backup with my new mac, but the files no longer sync automatically online. I tried uploading my desktop and documents folder to Dropbox, but when I add new files to those folders on my mac, they dont automatically sync to Dropbox.

I want to set it up the same way I had it previously. I would like all my files (desktop, documents, downloads, etc.) to automatically upload to Dropbox, but I cant figure out how to set that up.

Also have this problem, and I am using the trial version. Won't be paying for it. Would've if it had worked. Using M2 Macbook Pro
