Re: The new files I add to the desktop app aren't syncing to my handheld device (with the mobile app).

Hmm, I see. Can you open your Finder once again, go to your Applications folder and restart the Dropbox app from there? 

Let me know if you can see the Dropbox icon in your menu bar after that and sync your files.
