Age old problem that's still not been fixed.
The only workaround that I've found is to add a new start up item in - session & startup - application autoatart - with the following code in the command line:

/bin/bash -c "sleep 15 && dropbox stop && env DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS="" dropbox start -i"
This stops the original Dropbox instance from the notification area in the panel & starts it again normally, where you now have access to the right click menu.
