I installed Dropbox, but my folder is empty.

I have a new Macintosh computer and I want to sync it with the Dropbox on my old computer. It's not an obvious thing. Help!

Are you sure you haven't created one more "new unwanted account" by the way? 🤔 Check again the emails/accounts in use as I noted above.

Good luck.

No, I did not create another account. However, the one I deleted seems to not actually be deleted for a month after creation. Could that be the problem?

    Hi barbiesa, did you actually follow these steps to delete that account entirely?
