1Password5 on Mac/Yosemite - Won't recognize DropBox

I'm probably missing something here: On 1Password5 initial startup, initial screen asks "I'm new to 1Password" or "I've used...". Selecting "I've used...", pop up gives option for DropBox, but selecting DropBox gives message: App not installed on this Mac. From what I can see there is no app for Dropbox in the App Store.

Here's the problem: I do have a DropBox account, so when I click on 'Download Dropbox App', DropBox launches in my browser (Chrome) - but is not recognized by 1Password. Any ideas?

    You must download and install the Dropbox app from https://www.dropbox.com/install

    The 1Password app requires the Dropbox desktop application to run.

    Dropbox is not in the Mac App Store.

    Thank you, that link is what I needed! Every time I had tried to go to Dropbox.com from the browswer, it auto loaded my instance of DropBox on the web.
