    Hey gerard10, sorry to hear about this.

     

    Are both your desktop app and your mobile app linked to the same Dropbox account?

     

    What do you see when you login to your account on dropbox.com? Do you see your files there or are they missing?

     

    Let me know and we'll go from there.

        Hi gerard10! You can try to sign in to www.dropbox.com from your current computer to double check this. 

         

        If you go to this page, can you see the same files that you see on your mobile device?
