Hi,
I'm not really familiar with Dropbox nor Macs, but you can try to put
your .vimrc and your .vim/ folder into the Dropbox folder and then
create a softlink from .vimrc to Dropbox/.vimrc and .vim/ to
Dropbox/.vim/

I think softlinks on Mac a created the same way as on Linux with:
ln -s TARGET LINKNAME e.g. ln -s Dropbox/.vimrc .vimrc

This solution works great here with Linux and git instead of Mac and
Dropbox.
