Devices will migrate automatically to the new Files On-Demand as soon as they receive a macOS update.

If you choose to update to macOS 12.3, you may have issues opening online-only files in third-party applications on your Mac. Earlier today, Dropbox alerted its customers about an upcoming change to its Mac app:ĭropbox is actively working on full support for the upcoming macOS 12.3 (Monterey) release and will begin rolling out a beta version in March 2022.
