Dropbox importing problem

DEVONthink Tips
1

After updating to DevonThink Pro Office 2.5, I have synced my MacBook based database to dropbox. But when I try to import this database to my MacMini I get the error:

08.48.52: Sync: DB ! per@rqnne.dk (Dropbox) The operation was cancelled.
08.48.52: Sync: DB ! per@rqnne.dk (Dropbox) not found ({“error”: “File not found”})

Another problem: At first I had problems with uploading the database. This let me to split it up into several smaller. How do I remove those now empty databases in dropbox?

Fire up /Applications/Utilities/Appescript Editor.app and paste this in…

tell application id "com.devon-technologies.thinkpro2"
	tell current database
		set dbID to (uuid as text)
		tell application "Safari"
			activate
			try -- Open the database in Safari
				open location ("https://www.dropbox.com/home/Apps/DEVONthink/databases/" & dbID as Unicode text)
			on error
				display dialog "This does not appear to be a Dropbox Synced database." buttons {"Quit"} default button 1
			end try
		end tell
		tell application "Finder"
			activate
			try -- Reveal the local copy of the database to delete if existing.
				do shell script "open -R `mdfind -onlyin ~ kMDItemDisplayName=='Dropbox'`/Apps/DEVONthink/databases/" & dbID
			on error
				display dialog "No local Sync data found." & return & return & "The Sync data for this database has already been correctly excluded from your machine." with icon 1 buttons {"Quit"} default button 1
			end try
		end tell
	end tell
end tell
```Select the database in DEVONthink you want to delete from Dropbox. Then in Script Editor, press the Compile button and the Run button. Step up one level from the database in Safari and you can delete the database there.

Note this assumes you've logged into Dropbox in your browser.

PS: You should try Tools > Rebuild Database… if you are having Sync errors.
