I use dropbox on ipad and 2 Mac's essentially for the app Scrivener.
I saw last week that all my scrivener projects'size (it is packages = folders) was 0 byte.
on my macbook they still had the correct size (a chance as since I trust dropbox I don't make backups of my dropbox folder, I know it's terrible)
but the sync is not correcting the problem: the scrivener projects stay at 0 byte while they have the correct size on my macbook and I have "everything is synced).
On my iPad and my other mac they are at 0 bytes
I re-installed dropbox.. but still the same

Hey @cvhnenten, let's see what we can find about this! 

 

If I understood this correctly, it sounds like the app reports as up-to-date for both of your Mac devices, right? 

 

If you check these projects on our website online, what do you see there? 

 

Provided that you have similar screenshots, feel free to send them over.

 

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
