I am told that you can run the installer from another location other than the app[lications folder. In other words, normally, you copy apps to the applications folder before running them. In this case, I have been told that you should run Dropbox outside of the application folder for the first time. You might have to remove it form your login items in User and Groups in System preferences and then reboot before you attempt to install.

Installing Dropbox results in placement within an area which says "Dropbox has no windows". THis is prior to any login attempt. I've killed the process from the activity monitor, but how can one successfully install Dropbox?


Thank you.
