    I have a second Dropbox account I use at work using Windows and would like to access this using Parallels while still being able to keep and use my personal Dropbox account set up for Mac. I've tried setting this second account up in Parallels but all it does is attempt to sync without working. Has anyone been able to get a similar system to work?

    You could just share your work account folder with your home account and access the files that way. But if you want to try your way, try disabling LAN sync in the Mac Dropbox preferences.
