Is it possible that you opened a new account, instead of logging into your old one?
Do you see any signs of your missing files in your events page by the way? This is the place where all uploads, edits, and deletions are normally logged so it should give you a hint.
Have you double checked the Deleted files page? Finally, do you remember when was the last time you accessed your Dropbox account in the past? Is there any chance that it was more than a year, and the account was deleted due to inactivity at some point?
In any case, please keep us posted, Robyn.

Thank you, Meghan, for replying. No, this was one of my two standby Dropbox accounts, one for each of my emails. I believe I used this in December, when I started working on my book again. Cannot locate Events Page. Deleted files is empty.
Anything else to try? This is heartbreaking.
