VistasDropbox icon missing in the xubuntu plugin area
The dropbox icon from the desktop plugin area is missing and in its place there is a black TV 1 with a red sign in its center. I tried to solve this issue by removing and reinstalling dropbox and by following the proposed solution here. Neither one solution nor the other solved my problem.
Someone can help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance.

There are some workarounds until the bug is fixed. The best one at this moment (working for Linux distros such as Xubuntu, Linux Mint, etc.) is:
dropbox stop && DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS="" dropbox start
More details at another StackExchange site: Dropbox icon is not working Xubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 - Ask Ubuntu
Update:
And a more recent workaround that works for more Linux operating systems:
dropbox stop && dbus-launch dropbox start

I just ran into the same issue. I noticed that my .dbus directory was owned by root:root with a permission on 700. Changed ownership recursively to user:user and ran the more recent workaround and it seems to work.
