- Hey gpk, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that you can check your sync settings under the relevant tab in the app's preferences.
I hope this helps!
Hmmm interesting, how would I check what is synced? I can't see any Selective Sync or Smart Sync options but I'm probably not looking in the right place as I'm a very occasional (confused!) user.
Many thanks for your input Rich

Great, many thanks to all for the replies, following those instructions I see there are 2 folders (Photos and Camera Uploads) which are in Dropbox but not on my computer. I think I have all those photos somewhere else and backups too so when I have a moment I can double check that and then clear them out of Dropbox. This probably accounts for all the missing space. Thanks so much 🙂
For other users who may be reading this, it's Selective sync that is relevant here, which can cause stuff to be stored in Dropbox and taking up space there but not showing in your computer's Dropbox folder. I've no idea how or when I activated this but there you go. Smart sync is not available to Basic plan users so not relevant to my issue.
