whenever I start my computer, dropbox does not automatically start itself aswell. Furthermore, when I try to start it using the program launcher, nothing happens. I then tried the command line (dropbox status), which gives: Dropbox isn't running!



Naturally I want to start it using the command dropbox start, which returns:



Dropbox isn't running!
Dropbox is already running!


Odd! My current workaround is to delete the .dropbox-dist and .dropbox folders from ~/ and then do dropbox start -i, which starts the installer again and gives me access to my dropbox up to the point at which I have to restart my computer.



Any solution on this?



Thanks!

You can fix this by installing dropbox using software-center or Type following command in terminal.



sudo apt-get install nautilus-dropbox 


This will integrate nautilus with dropbox. After that you don't need to check and run dropbox manually.
