Can't get Boxcryptor to work at all.

Scrap

I just installed Boxcryptor and logged in. But I notice I do not have an encrypted drive at all... neither do I have any right click/encrypt options either.

Even if I try to drag and drop a simple file into the Boxcryptor drive it denies me saying I do not have permission to modify them and that they are on a locked volume.

The installation has not created a 'Private' folder in my main Dropbox folder either which is something the Classic version always did.

What's Going wrong here? Nothing is working at all. (I'm on a Mac)

Hello Scrap,

Boxcryptor (not Classic) does not create any special folder within your Dropbox anymore. You can use it to encrypt any part of your Dropbox.

Have you tried if restarting your Mac fixes the problem? Does the Console app (Applications -> Utilities) contain any information regarding Boxcryptor or OSXFUSE?

Best regards,
Robert

Hi Robert..

The way I got it to work was to right click on the virtual drive and choose 'SHOW CONTENTS', which is really not normal. I have rebooted the Mac twice which made no difference.

I have to select the virtual drive.. then right click it to show folder contents, then open these folders.. and even then I still don't have folder permissions and still have no 'right click encrypt' option at all in any of these folders.

I had to navigate down 4 levels of directories before I was able to only drag and drop anything into the folder to be encrypted.

Thats completely nuts!! The Classic version gave me none of these crazy issues. I can't see myself using this at all.
