Hello! Trying to install Box sync on Mac 12.7.4 using Chrome Version 124.0.6367.119 (up to date as of April 2024). Getting access denied warning. We are using the free version of Box. So, I cannot sign into Box Sync and cannot edit online Box files. Help! Oof. Thanks.
Hi Wendi,
Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist!
We strongly recommend switching to Box Drive.
We firmly suggest for this change in your environment as Box Drive is the current Box desktop experience, does not require manual syncing (though this is available through the mark for offline option), and the issue you're experiencing is likely to be resolved straight away after installation. By installing Box Drive from this link Box Sync will be automatically uninstalled, and any files that had not synced up to Box will be preserved in your old Box Sync folder.
This article explains the difference between Sync and Drive: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697354-Switching-from-Box-Sync-to-Box-Drive
This article goes into a little more detail about Box Drive and its basic functionality: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697494
Let's first give Box Drive a try as a quick solution to the issue you're experiencing.
Hope it helps!
