Re: How can I download a big folder to my external HDD on Mac?

Peace to all

I was able to download my folder to the DB app on my external drive, but there's a discrepancy in the number of files

(955 online vs 1, 244 on hdd).

I would like to understand what happened, and if there are doubles, and how I can locate them.

Could anyone please help me with this?

Thanks,

Robert

    Cloudie, can you send over a couple of screenshots showing what you see online and on the Dropbox app? I’d like to have a visual and go from there.
