Desktop files not syncing from my computer to the site
Many files and folders that I have edited on my desktop are not updating online. I have checked all the settings (allowed use offline), checked my network, unlimited upload speed, uninstalled and rei...
And on my Dropbox desktop app, it says "Your files are up to date."

Hey there nsawicki - sorry to hear about your syncing issue.
Could you please send us a screenshot of how those files look inside your Dropbox folder and another one of the app's exact status and version as shown in your menu bar/system tray?
Did you reboot your computer since you first noticed this by the way and have you checked the files content as well apart from their time-stamps?
Let us know more and we'll take it from there.
Thanks. I have restarted my computer several times. The content of the files online is old; the content of the files on my desktop is up-to-date - and note that there are several other files I've worked on in the past week or two that have the same issue. Attached are the screenshots you requested (I think). FWIW, I recently got a new computer (Macbook Air, replacing an old one) and did not have any issues transferring or installing Dropbox. In my Preferences, the version is listed as Dropbox v200.3.7010.

Thanks for the screenshots nsawicki - I'll be removing them for security purposes in a bit, but they're really helpful! I noticed that the files you're looking at don't have syncing icons on them.
I also noticed that you're running a beta version of the desktop app. Could you update to the latest, stable version from this page and let me know how it goes??
Make sure to turn off the early releases from your account's settings first.
