repeated packet sync notices

I have DevonThinkPro Office (2.10.1) open, but I’m working in a different program right now, so nothing’s going into or changing in DTPO, and yet, every few minutes, I get a notification of a “packet sync,” and a few minutes a notification that I’ve changed 3 or 4 files. I’m set up right now for Manual sync, and sync on open and close, so I’m not sure what’s going on. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Is this a Dropbox sync?

Why, yes–I’m betting that’s significant 8)

Yes. You should not have any local sync data on the Mac. This is not a notification from us. It’s from the Dropbox application. Go into the Dropbox application’s Preferences > Sync > Selective Sync and press the Choose folders to sync button. Make sure you uncheck the Apps/DEVONthink Packet Sync. This will keep Dropbox from trying to sync unnecessarily.

Thanks; I’ve done just that and have my fingers crossed!

Why are your fingers crossed - that the notifications will stop??
