Re: It usually takes time for the syncing changes to appear between two devices. What can I do?

Hey there, AShimada1 let's see what we can find about this! 

Can you clarify your end goal for me, please? Are you trying to sync the changes between your devices, or do you wish to make your content available offline

Keep in mind that computers sync directly with the Dropbox website. Once the changes you make sync there, then they can sync directly to your device. 

With that being said, would you mind clarifying which app version you currently have installed, along with the app's syncing status

You can find both by hovering your mouse over the little Dropbox icon in your taskbar next to your WiFi.

If you have any step-by-step screenshots of what you described feel free to send them over, in order for me to have a visual too.

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
