The app that has replaced box sync on Mac creates a volume named Box. I would like to keep the "old" name Box Sync for compatibility with other macs running the old version. Is it possible?

  Hi Orso, 

  Welcome to the Box Community!

  I understand that you would like to keep both Box Sync and Box Drive on your device, however, please be advised that there are known issues with having both Box Sync and Box Drive installed on a single machine so we do not recommend this setup.

  Since Box Drive has nearly all of Sync’s capabilities -- including the ability to work offline -- and since it includes an automated Sync Uninstaller, it’s worthwhile, simple, and fast to transition fully to Box Drive. 

  To learn more about the Box Drive, please take a look the following articles:

  • Switching from Box Sync to Box Drive

  Thanks for your participation in the Box Community!

  Best,
