Just about had enough of this for now and have reverted back to DropBox Folder. So I had no folder to select and chose Dropbox in Finder and Uh oh! When MD opened it was empty!!
On the secondary device I opened MD and selected Shared Folders and, of course, it asked which shared folder? However the library structure is different on the Intel to the Silicon and has no Cloud Storage folder. Installed the latest DropBox beta versions on both devices and then set up MD on the primary device to shared folders and selected the correct library folder and it worked ok. I trashed iCloud drive and also signed out of, and completely uninstalled, DropBox on both devices. The primary computer (silicon mac) was okay. Tried setting it up several times and the secondary computer (intel mac) always had different data, missing large sums of money and reminders messed up. Just had a hairy half hour - all sorts of problems with iCloud Drive. I honestly don't know, as the internet has seemed very quiet on this subject since end of January. So, they may have already fixed what Moneydance users would be concerned with, or they'll break it later, or maybe I'm "grandfathered in" to the old method. And I guess waiting was good, because everything "just worked" (yes, online only files didn't, but that doesn't relate to this discussion).Įither neither Dropbox/OpenDrive moved the files, or they did fantastic symlinks, as I couldn't even locate the Library/CloudStorage area. Obviously I had all hidden folders showing as I would probably have to look around for files. I was prepared to change to Shared Folder, and enter what I've read is the new location ( ~/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox )
I use Dropbox Folder, so the dropbox location is hardcoded ( /users//Dropbox ) This is MY experience, if yours is different, post here.
I had been concerned about Dropbox changes (moving the files to a different directory, etc.) but I decided to upgrade today vs. It appears Apple was about to force me to upgrade from 12.2.1 to 12.3.1 due to the security upgrades in 12.3.1
