I do not get the drop box sub menu. I have only the standard finder menu. Can it be that somehow I do not have dropbox installed properly? I don't know. On Feb 21, 2011, at 10:56 AM, Darcy Burnard wrote:
Hi Marlaina. When you're focussed on the file you want in your dropbox public folder, you want to do VO shift M on it. This will bring up the standard finder context menu. However there should be an additional submenu for dropbox. From there you should find the option to get the download link for said file. It will copy the link to your clipboard. It is possible that the dropbox submenu might only be available once the file has finished uploading to dropbox. I've never tried to access that submenu until after the upload was finished. Unfortunately the only way I've found to reliably tell if the file is finished uploading is to keep an eye on the network traffic section of activity monitor. Of course this only works if you're not doing much other network activity at the time. HTH.
