Hi Phil I user a high-end thunderbolt drive for my DropBox folder. If your drive becomes disconnected, for any reason, DropBox pops up a window in the chooser giving you the option to relink or quit.

It’s the only way I know to get at that context menu. Of course, first route the mouse to the dropbox icon, then hold down the option key and click the mouse on your air/pro, or on an external mouse open the preferences menu item in the drop down menu and under “account”, you can change the default location of the dropbox folder. I’m not sure if you can successfully use an external disc, but go ahead and experiment with some dummy files and see what happens when you pull the plug. under “account”, You can also use selective sync to limit the folders that dropbox syncs onto your mac, if space is a concern. But, you’ll need sighted assistance to click the various folders that you want to sync and uncheck those you don’t want on your machine. <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at the list's public Mail Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/>.
