I migrated my files to a new Mac, but they all show as 0 bytes. How can I delete them?
I always worked on a pc. Now I finally bought a Mac desktop. I tried to migrate files (obviously in a wrong way) and it looked perfect but they all are 0 bytes. But they all have the correct name. If I delete one, it's disappeared from Dropbox. My question: (how) can I delete all the corrupted files frommy Mac without removing them from Dropbox?
Thank you for your answer! Ino

Hi Ino4! Thanks for your post here.
To have a clearer image of what may have happened, can you clarify how exactly you migrated those files over to your new Mac computer?
I’d also like a screenshot of how they appear when you open your local Dropbox folder there.
Let me know when you’re ready, and I’ll have a closer look.
