Hey James!

 

Jay is referring to the local Dropbox folder in Finder; do the files in it have any syncing icons?

No they don't 

Why not?

What does it mean? 

What should I do?

 

I don't have any other devices, just the computer.  Do they not have sync icons because there is no where to sync them to?

    Hi Dragonboy4712, it seems the app is up to date, so you should be able to see your syncing icons. 

     

    Have you tried re-starting your device? Feel free to also try these steps, and let me know if you notice a difference then.
