I edited my files last night, but now my updates are missing.

II updated at least a dozen files last night and when I look now, the files dates show prior years. I've lost a ton of work.  Was Dropbox corrupted in the past 24 hours?

    I've been out of town, so I am late to respond.  I made multiple edits on 11/24 before I left for my trip. Those edits appear on Dropbox.  Whatever issue was plaguing me before seems to be resolved now.  Thank you.

    Pleased its sorted. Its important to note that this wasn't a Dropbox issue (this place would be overran with people posting if it was!), however, my guess as its resolved when home is that the files simply weren't given enough time to upload at home before you disconnected/shut down. Its a simple mistake to make but can cause chaos when done!
