This directory should be created when you link the app to dropbox and it should get created at ~/Dropbox/Apps/MobileOrg due to how Dropbox handles app permissions.

If you're experiencing issues, watch for a new release. We're beta testing now with the v2 of the Dropbox API

That is not creating it so much as configuring org to use it.

I am not sure if the directory has to exist or not. Probably that's
because getting an error that it does not and running mkdir is not hard
and easily forgotten.
