Sorry to hear this happens, jody C. Can you clarify the syncing status and app version of your desktop app? Did you have any recent OS updates?

 

If you quit the Dropbox app after checking its syncing status, does the issue go away immediately?

 

Does the issue also occur on the Dropbox website? Have you tried different browsers, as a test?
