Russell,

I'm able to access menu extras and find Dropbox. When I use VO+Shift+Space, it 
brings up a page which lists recently changed files. At the end of this page is 
the word Settings. Pressing VO+Space on this does nothing, and interacting with 
it identifies it as a text element. Pressing VO+Down on this page does nothing. 
This is Dropbox 2.0.22. Any suggestions?
 
Chris
