*****UPDATE PROBLEM RESOLVED*****
So, because of all the glitchy Bulls**t with Dropbox, and no considerable replies for a solution, I left it alone and decided to switch to Google Drive.

"Would you like to link this app to your Laptop?"
Well curiosity certainly got the best of me....I had to click "YES" just to see what would happen now????

I can't offer this community any advice or tips with this problem, except Dropbox is Glitchy and malfunctioned!!!

Hi Prima2339, thanks for posting on the Community!
I understand your frustration over the syncing issue you're experiencing.
From what I can see, currently, you're not able to install the app due to the device limit, so let's first address that aspect.
Could you let me know how many devices you have currently connected on your account? Are they desktop or mobile devices?
This will help me to assist further!

Could you attach a screenshot of what you're seeing on the devices page?
