    Thanks for the help, folks. My Dropbox app decided to sort itself out overnight and everything is successfully uploaded. I have no idea what the problem was but I'm happy it's fixed! Liz

      Still, no-go, I'm afraid. Clearing cache didn't make any difference.

        Hi Liz Falconer, do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?
