Sync target

Dropbox

What issue do you have?

I'm trying to backup my notes to dropbox from my old laptop, so i can import them to my new laptop. So I start through sychronisation on the old laptop and it goes through the process of deleting remote items. After a while it aborts and gives me the error message: "sync target is locked". I found instructions online that say: Tools > Options > Synchronization > Advanced and toggle the option labeled "Enable sync locks" to the "on" position. Unfortunately, I see no "enable sync locks" options. I'm currently trying to synchronize again on my old computer, hoping that it aborted because the computer went to sleep during the process. Thank you for your suggestions.

My notes finally synced to dropbox, which is great, but they don't have tags when I sync them to my new computer. :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

I am also facing the same issue. I cannot get tags from dropbox. Let me know if you find an alternative.
