Unable to view trash can files
Has anyone run into an issue with being unable to view any deleted files in the trash can? It's been 1 week since I upgraded to Dropbox business and since day 1, when I click on the trash can I see a spinning circle. No files display at all. I opened a support ticket which is going on day 6 with no current resolution. Dropbox is looking into the issue but I wanted to know if anyone in the community has experienced this problem. It seems very odd to have the problem after upgrading from Dropbox pro.
- Personally Shaun I never use the deleted items list for that exact reason - it also actually does NOT show big deletions which to me makes it a bit useless.
Personally I go through my folder structure with the 'show deleted items' turned on as I find it so much easier.

It has always been a bit hit and miss if you have large numbers of files in that folder, is that a possibility?Yes I have a large number of files in the trash can and always will. The thing is, when I upload image files and then move them to a different folder and un-selective sync them, there is a deletion and addition in the events log. I guess I'll learn to use the events log rather than the trash can if I need to find important files to restore from now on. Thank you for the reply.

If we don't delete the files in Trash the files remain on our "GB used". Like you I see a spinning circle when I try to enter the Trash. This has been happening for months. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have asked Dropbox tech support 5 times how to fix this bug, to no avail.
