    Hey TampaLifeChurch, I appreciate the screenshot! 

     

    It seems the app is still syncing content, and isn't fully updated, which could be one of the reasons. I can see it's currently syncing approximately 371 GB. 

     

    If I were you, I'd wait for everything to be up to date, then reboot my device and check the computer's hard drive anew. Do you think you can try that?

Hello there TampaLifeChurch, thank you for posting!

 

Can you send me a screenshot of your syncing status?

 

You can find it by clicking the Dropbox icon near your clock.

 

Thank you!
