To remove existing Dropbox, open a terminal and do:

Code:

sudo apt-get remove --purge dropbox

then:

Code:

sudo rm -rf /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list

then:

Code:

sudo apt-get update

then:

Open your home folder, press Ctrl+H and remove any hidden folders with the name 'dropbox' that you see.

Menu, Settings, Session and Startup, Application Autostart tab, make sure there is no entry fro Dropbox, if there is try to remove or untick it. After that I would reboot, just to ensure there is no daemon running.

Then use Menu > System > Install Additional Software to install it correctly.

I've seen this suggested
Menu>Settings>Window Manager Tweaks
Compositor Tab
untick "Enable display composting"

Good thread here https://www.dropboxforum.com/hc/communit...n-not-work
I downloaded the old version from the link on post 4 and went that way.
