I’m feeling a little stuck here. I’ve got two different laptops for work, and I’ve gone ahead and installed Dropbox on both, logging into my account on each one just like you're supposed to.
The thing is, when I’m grinding away on my first laptop—working on new docs or just tweaking things already sitting in my Dropbox folder—everything seems to upload to the web version just fine.
But then, the moment I switch over to the second laptop, none of those new files show up. It’s like the changes I made on the first machine just... didn't happen. They aren't there, and the edits aren't showing up either.
Anyone have a clue what might be causing this hiccup?

So, say I’m working on some files on my first laptop—either making new ones or editing existing ones inside my Dropbox folder—they all upload automatically to the Dropbox cloud.
But when I switch over to the second laptop, none of those new files show up, and it doesn't even reflect the changes I made on the first one.
Anyone know what the deal is?

I don't actually use Dropbox myself, but is there some kind of "refresh" button somewhere? Like a checkbox, a button, an option, something?

I’ve honestly never had a single issue with Dropbox before, but now? I have no idea what’s going on. It’s driving me absolutely nuts.
I went ahead and decided to uninstall it, then did a clean reinstall, but as soon as it’s back up, I get this message shown below. I don't even get why it's flagging anything—everything works perfectly fine when I'm just using my browser to open pages.
