Also, are you seeing your files on the website, be it in the homepage or the events page?
Let us know more and we'll take it from there.

Hi
Below are all the OS details I can find.
I can't find anything about the Dropbox details you asked about. I only see the DB icon in File Manager, and that icon says no files are in it.
When I logon to DB online, there are no files there at all.
When I was trying to sort all this out earlier, I must have inadvertently opened another DB Basic account. It said it had found a DB folder on my computer and asked if I wanted to rename it or open another one. I clicked the wrong button and told it to rename. It must have overwritten my original DB folder on my computer. I should have another account on DB website with the email: [removed]. Perhaps my files are there but DB says it cannot verify that account.
