Most of my shared files have disappeared

I have a number of shared files in my account, but only one of them appears on the home page. They also cannot be accessed by the people with whom they are shared. All but one of them have disappeared.

    Hey wmarshalliii, thanks for reaching out to the Dropbox Community.

     

    Can you please clarify if you're referring to folders or just files?

     

    Are you able to see them in the 'shared' tab in your account?

     

    And do you see any events related to those files in your events page here?

     

    Let me know and we'll go from there.
