Hey T Magurk, thanks for posting to our Community!

 

Indeed, it's strange that you can see only one folder on the web and then a different folder in your Dropbox folder in Finder.

 

Just to be 100% sure, click on the Dropbox icon, and go to the 'account' tab in preferences, to make sure that the email address there, matches the one you see online.

 

If it matches, go to the 'sync' tab in preferences, and then check the 'choose which folders to sync' section, for the "N" folder.

 

Let me know what you find and we'll go from there.
