Hello Daphne - 

Finally got around to trying the "Fix Hardlinks" suggestion on my main Dropbox folder (as a workaround I've been working off of a 'selective sync' on a different user account on the same computer, shared with my main user account).

Initially after I 'fixed hardlinks', I had approximately the same number of files left to sync (60,150 - I assume the additional are those files I've created/modified since last week) but instead of "2+ days" it said "1 sec.". It stayed that way for about 20 mins., then it went back to "2+ days", with 60,150 files remaining. Then back to "1 sec.", then "2+ days" again, etc., etc., etc.

I did notice now that I have 2 folders in my top level directory with teh blue syncing icon. In one, all of it's nested folders also have the blue syncing icon. In another, drilling down, I found a folder with a red x. The folders insode of teh folder with teh red x all have blue syncing icons. Is there something I can/should do to fix this? I looked at the problems that a red x can represent, and:

• Invalid filenames (files can’t sync if their names have certain characters or symbols)
  
  • The folder with teh red x has only alpha letters in the filename.
• Permissions errors (meaning you don’t have access to shared content, or a computer system permission)
  • The folder with the red x has the same permissions as the folders above it, and others that are syncing.
• File changing very rapidly (meaning multiple edits in quick succession)
  • This folder is part of a Seagate Dashboard Backup, which only runs at startup, so it's not changing rapidly.
• Your Dropbox account is out of storage space (which means you can't upload to it)
  • I have used only a little more than 25% of my 3.1 TB
