Hi pinkyellowroses74,

 

 

Thanks for getting in touch.

 

It looks like this account is linked to a Gmail address. Would it be alright if we contacted you via email?

 

We can continue from there.

        Support was horrific. You have combined an old account associated with one device and newer account with another device. Some of my irreplaceable photos in folders have been “emptied”. And today I still have not gotten confirmation if both accounts are active -one links to phone and a different one links to computer. ([removed per Community Guidelines] (1st and older account) and [removed per Community Guidelines] (2nd account set up). 
        TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE that you can’t figure this out and explain to me how to fix it. More like DripDropbox!!
