    Hi @HyrqTsp28FKCqEYNNPJ‌

    When you say the Dropbox icon is missing from the menu bar, I assume you're referring to the OS X menu bar. Do you still have Dropbox in /Applications/? and if you do what happens if you open it? Certainly if Dropbox isn't running for any reason then syncing wouldn't work.

    What happens if you reboot your Mac? If it still isn't responsive you may need to drag the Dropbox application to your Trash and download a fresh copy in the hope that it helps.
