Hi there Zion2 - thanks for bringing this to our attention. 

 

Could you please let us know your computer's OS version, and the status and version of the Dropbox desktop app as shown in your menu bar?

 

What can you find about those files in your events page?

 

Also, are you saving your project files as folders or packages perhaps? 

 

Let us know more and we'll take it from there.

Hi Walter, I'm on Sonoma 14.5.

DROPBOX 204.4.5420

Up to Date

 

I save all my projects as folders and not packages

 

The Events page has alot of data but NOTHING relating to the missing project files as I can see. There doen't appear to be a way to narrow down the Events to just those relating specific files.

We are talking about 100+ files just disappearing

    Thanks for the additional details Zion2 

     

    Do those missing files show up in your deleted files page or locally in your computer's trash can?

      Hi Walter.

      I've checked extensively and i cannot see those specific files in the Trash or in the deleted page within Dropbox. There are numerous deleted files that are titled things such as Z.pluginData and Z.songData but nothing more specific. The last session I had was on the 16th July and everything was fine before then.
