Setting up scheduled backup
I already use Dropbox, and would like to set up scheduled backup. Do I have to delete my existing files/folders on Dropbox before doing so, to make sure there's enough space? The scheduled backup will be for exactly the same folders that I have already uploaded to Dropbox.

Hi Nancy! Yes, that's right.
- NancyDropbox StaffThanks for clarifying!
I'm afraid that this isn't possible via the desktop app, at the moment.
In general, Dropbox will sync your files/folders automatically, as long as the app is connected to the internet.
The only option would be to pause syncing altogether and only resume, when you wish. However, none of your files would be able to sync in the in-between.
Let me know though if you have any other questions.
