That is an odd looking path. On Mac that would expand to something like

/Users/Dropbox/_biblio/org-ref/bibnotes.org

and on linux

/home/Dropbox/_biblio/org-ref/bibnotes.org

usually you should not have permission for that, and neither make sense
to me.

Does (file-exists-p org-ref-bibliography-notes) return true?

or alternatively does (find-file org-ref-bibliography-notes) actually
open a writable file?

I would think this is what you want (unless you have some unusual setup
and permissions):

(setq org-ref-bibliography-notes "~/Dropbox/_biblio/org-ref/bibnotes.org"
       org-ref-default-bibliography '("~/Dropbox/_biblio/refs.bib"))

i.e. no .. in the path.
