Why won't my devices sync with each other?
I have no idea if this is the right area. My tablet and phone show a 3 Month old version of files and not all of them. I've tried signing into the web app. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling on...
If your devices are not syncing with each other, it could be due to various reasons such as incompatible software versions, network issues, or improper settings. Ensure that all devices are connected to the same network and have the latest updates installed. Check the settings and permissions to ensure proper synchronization between devices.
They're all in the same room with the same router. Since I've uninstalled and reinstalled on the phone and it shows as the same version as the tablet, I'm not sure how else to install a different version? What permission does Dropbox require to sync as it once did?

Hey WhyDoHumansNoLongerExist - sorry to jump in here, but I wanted to mention that it sounds like the Dropbox desktop app on your computer is not syncing.
Could you have a look at your task bar and let me know if you see the Dropbox icon there?
If you do, could you share the app's status and version?
Said above:
While it shows as "download complete" on the taskbar icon (which is black with a blue sync icon), it does not show in any of the files. I cannot find the Dropbox version on my computer. I've looked but it's not showing anywhere that I know of.

In that case, could you reinstall using the offline installer from this page directly WhyDoHumansNoLongerExist ?
