Uploading selection of photos from Camera Roll to Camera Uploads folder via the iPhone?

How do I re-upload just one year of photos from iPhone to Dropbox with Camera Uploads? I tried selecting and sending but the file name is wrong - I want it to have the year-month-date the way it does...

You're correct that the older images were uploaded to Dropbox, however, about half the year disappeared somehow, but they are still on my phone. 

How can I reset my Camera Uploads to do a wholesale download of my whole Camera Roll?

It would be possible to do that, namely a full re-indexing and re-uploading of all files in your camera roll.

You can contact the support team directly, and they'll be able to assist you with this process.
