Thanks so much for your quick reply.
Here's a link to info (screen capture pictures) that may help (I couldn't figure out how to embed/attach image files to this reply so I put them in Dropbox.)

Regarding the one entitled "Manage hard drive space" I have not tried that due to the (confusing to me) comment "file will still appear on your computer." Does this mean just a small sized link file to them is on my local physical drive? This would be OK). Is this the one I should use rather than the "Choose folders" to sync? As an aside Dropbox seems to be extra busy syncing and indexing

Hey tambourineman, thanks for the update.
I removed your link, to prevent excessive traffic in your account, since this is a public forum.
It looks like the application is trying to sync several changes that have happened in your Dropbox folder, so before jumping to conclusions, I think we'll need to wait until it shows as "up to date".
You just need to check it once in a while, to make sure it's actually syncing and that it's not stuck.
Once the Dropbox icon shows that it's "up to date", check if the folders you unsynced, are still present in your Dropbox folder and let us know.
