Good afternoon Daniel, In order to remove the dropbox application, you will need to first stop the running process, since Dropbox is a service that runs in the background. To do this, navigate to the utilities folder from the finder by pressing command+shift+u. Next, navigate to the activity monitor application and open it. In activity monitor, navigate to the processes table and start typing in dropbox. This should highlight the dropbox process in the table. Vo to the left to the toolbar and interact with the toolbar. Navigate to the right to the quit process button and press VO space. You should be presented with a dialog asking you if you really want to quit the process. Once you confirm this dialog, you should be able to delete the dropbox application from your machine. hth On Nov 8, 2010, at 4:36 PM, Daniel K. Gartmann wrote:
