Why does the Uppercase Letters of my file name change to Lowercase
I have a file name "Northern California" that is shared to various people. It was automatically changed to "northern california" Why did the capital "N" and capital "C" change to lower case?

All, I too have struggled with this issue. This is particularly problematic when you are trying to organize a bunch of files across collaborators and you end up chasing you tail because your changes get changed back if certain folks access the folder!! (depending on their platform, version of the sync, etc). I can not understand how this is an issue in 2015! This is absolutely ridiculous. Honestly, this is a deal-breaker issue for me and I am going to start looking for an alternative. I can't have filenames being changed or not synced based on the case of the letters. Dropbox you should have spent resources years ago to fix this.
