Hmm, that's pretty strange indeed.

 

To test things out, if you upload a file directly through the website, can your colleague see it both on dropbox.com and locally in their Dropbox folder?

 

And does it also sync down to your own computer?

    Thanks for checking all this, Sean.

     

    Is this a simple shared folder or a team folder?

     

    It's strange that they can't see your uploaded files, even online, that means that you might not all be accessing the same folder, could that be possible?
