    Hey TOFU, thanks for clarifying! 

     

    Do you have access to your PC, to check if the app is updated, and syncing properly? Also, how did you add the files? Did you copy them in your Dropbox folder when doing so?

     

    Feel free to let me know the app's syncing status, and version by hovering over the little Dropbox icon, on your task bar and we'll take it from there.

oops. Things aren't going so well. I did see that on my pc I'm not using the app, I'm on the net. I tried logging off on my phone and logging back in and I get an "Unable to log in" pop-up. There is another address there that I apparently used and when I click login I just get a circle going round and round and an email saying someone is trying to get in using my address. I will get an email in 48 hours. This is exhausting. I can't imagine how you feel.
