    Could you clarify where exactly you expect to find the option to 'Open folders in'?

     

    A screenshot of where you would see this option would be great!

I have checked settings on Songbook and it lists the name of the correct file in Dropbox\Songbook.

 

How can you tell if Dropbox is syncing?  I thought you said that the Dropbox app should be white of yellow?  It is black.  It really is behaving as if there is no link between Dropbox and Songbook. Can you think of anything else that I can try?

 

Thanks.

Do the files appear on your account in the Dropbox site here when you navigate to the Songbook folder?

    I have made some changes to the files through my Dropbox file manager, deleting files without titles to clean up the list.  These changes are not visible on the Dropbox internet site that you directed me to.  The old files are still there.

    It appears that the files are in both the folder on the online Dropbox and in my folder that I see in File Manager on my computer.  They do not seem to be connected.  Changes made in the folder the I see in File Manager are not reflected in the folder on Dropbox.
