      Hey DavidJ1! Have you tried reinstalling Xmind on your device? 

      To clarify, are you seeing all of your files normally, if you open the Dropbox mobile app? What’s its current app version on your iPad?

        Yes, I can see them all. Version is 18.0.1. It is now happening intermittently. For example, I just opened Xmind and the icon that I posted earlier was not present. I am beginning to think that this is an Xmind issue rather than a Dropbox one.
