How do I sync my Mac and iPhone?
Hi!
I am trying to empty my Mac computer and I want to transfer all my files and pictures through Dropbox.
When I look at my Dropbox files in my iPhone they are not synchronized with what my Dropbox in my Mac shows.
I am afraid to lose all my files existing on my Mac.
How do I synchronize my Dropbox on my Mac with my Dropbox app on my iPhone?

Jag försöker tömma min Mac för försäljning. Jag vill föra över alla mina filer från min Mac till min PC, eller via Dropbox på min iPhone.
När jag tittar i min Dropbox på min Mac visas inte alls samma filer som i appen på min iPhone.
Den enda mappen som är synkad är "Kamerauppladdningar".
Hur synkroniserar jag min dropbox på min Mac med min dropbox-app på min iPhone?
Yes, I am using the sam email. Have changed the photo in the app on my iPhone but it doesn't appear on my Mac.

When you say in the app is this the Dropbox app? It doesn't sync things like Photos on the iPhone - it only does a one way sync of what you put in the app. If you then edit a photo on the phone it wont update on Dropbox.
So if you DID edit / delete or add in the app and its not sync'd to the computer its one two things - you have 2 accounts OR Dropbox isn't running on the computer. To see if its running look for the Dropbox icon near the computer and mouse over it to see what it says
