    Hey christopherbanbury, can you please use the steps in this article, to clear the Dropbox app's cache and see if that helps at all?

      Thanks. It`s helped me! But, usually, when I have such problems, I use an excellent online typing service which was recommended to me by a literature teacher. These text conversion services provide a variety of text editing tools, including the ability to change formatting, check spelling and grammar, and translate into other languages. This can be very important if you do not have the time or knowledge to do such work yourself.
