Why are they not uploading? You havent exactly given us much to go on.
After you put them in to the Dropbox folder have you given them time? 70gb is a HUGE file and is going to take A LONG TIME to upload. I'd say at least a few days. Mousing over your Dropbox icon on the status bar will tell you what its doing.Please remember as well that to upload via the website there is a 10gb per upload limit (i.e. all files must be less than 10gb).

I have been attempting to upload a Final Cut file (quicktime 6.95 G) and after several successes, (that do show and were of the same size) I cannot upload my final version.

Sometimes it shows that it is reading the file in the counter on the bottom of the window) but not showing it. I have attempted uploading from several places (draging onto the dropbox window , uploading it using the upoad file button, exporting it from quicktime to dropbox... all appear to work but nothing plays ....
