Yes, but accessible is a broad term. For the most part, I happen to find dropbox accessible. Not for nothing, I rarely, no. Never found myself needing to change any preferences after I installed. it. Their isn't many options in there to begin with. But I can do what dropbox is pretty much meant to do. Save files in the cloud and access them on all my devices that have an internet connection. Not saying I don't want the preference issue fixed of course.
