Changes I make to my files don't sync with other members of my team

When I enter new or Delete items on Dropbox it is not always syncing with others in my office.  It doesn't do it every time.  How can I force my Dropbox to sych?   Thanks,   Alan

Sorry to hear about this, Alan70.

 

First, you'll need to check the sync status and version of the Dropbox app on your computer.

 

You can do that by hovering over the Dropbox icon in your system tray/menu bar; what do you see?

 

Do your changes sync for you, if you look at your account on dropbox.com?

 

Let me know and we'll go from there!
