Hey,
There is a way how to turn on selective sync
To turn on selective sync:
Click the Dropbox icon from the system tray or menu bar.
Click the gear icon, and then select Preferences… from the menu.
Click Sync.
Click Selective Sync… (Linux and Windows) or click Change settings… (Mac).
A window will appear with a list of all the main folders in your Dropbox folder:
The folders with a check next to them are synced to your computer.
Uncheck any folders that you don't need to sync to your computer's hard drive.
Folders you uncheck will be removed from your hard drive, but will still be available on dropbox.com and on any other computers linked to your Dropbox account.
When you're done, select OK.

I don't want to turn on slective sync, I wnat everything to sync.
I have previously looked at this anyway, and there's another part of the problem - not all the sub-folders from the Dropbox folder on my main PC are showing on that list. Does that mean that not all my folders have even been uploaded to my DB storage space in the cloud?
