Hi @Nancy,

Sorry for the delay in response.

LK for some reason cannot see his activities beyond yesterday. But this morning again My activities show that I have moved the same files. LK said that this morning he renamed a parent folder containing the folder that contains the files that Dropbox says that I have moved. Hope this is helpful.

No worries, MRAQ. I’m also curious about one more thing; if your team admin goes to their Admin Console > Activity tab, what do they see on their end? 

 

I’d like to gather as much info as possible to isolate the issue.

    Also, he said we are using Dropbox Business, not Advanced which I said incorrectly earlier.
