Sending computer shows 165 GB of data but receiving computer shows 2.01 GB
Sending computer shows 165 GB of data but receiving computer shows 2.01 GB. How to get the receiving computer to get the complete file? I have changed to not show "read only" numerous times, but it keeps defaulting to "read only". Sending computer only has 256 RAM. Receiving computer has 1 T

Hi there tardisbleu - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Can you please walk me through the exact steps you take to do this so that I can advise further?Thanks so much!
I have the files(music) on Computer 1 sitting in Drop box. Can access them.
On computer 2 can see the files, but the files are empty.

Hey tardisbleu, thanks for the update here.
Is the Dropbox application installed on computer 2? And what is the sync status and version of Dropbox on that computer?
You can hover over the Dropbox icon in your system tray/menu bar to see that info.
What is sync status? I have transferred these file before with no problem. Don't know why they won't go back to the computer
