CommunityĪ more in-depth version of the rules can be found here Note that this approach also solved my “Not enough space” Time Machine problem.Welcome to r/Apple, the unofficial community for Apple news, rumors, and discussions. On the initial resume, DropBox will catch & sync the latest changes caused by Time Machine, but that’s the last time it gave my CPU a hard time.Īfter the initial big sync, DropBox returned to normal. Now that both DropBox and Time Machine have finished their tasks, you can let them run simultaneously. Let Time Machine complete the initial backup. Reset Time MachineĮrase / re-partition your Time Machine backup disk, and set the clean disk as your new Time Machine target. Now, it is time for DropBox to pause and give Time Machine some space. Therefore, I went to and set the option to make files (honestly) look like 0 bytes.Īfter that change, restart DropBox or your Mac, and let DropBox organize your disk accordingly. You can either make Finder think that a smart-synced file is still on the disk and occupy (for example) 2 GB’s of space, or you can make it be honest and show that it is occupying 0 bytes.Īpparently, the former approach is causing the incompatibility.

I’m keeping this post as a reference only.ĭropbox is a cloud-based storage service that has become increasingly popular in recent years. I ended up moving to iCloud and cancelling my DropBox plan.
