-deleted all files in the Dropbox camera upload folder
-restarted the device
-even tried from a new device with a different SD card but with the same files in it

Hi!
I also would like to re-upload all photos from my iPhone and my wife iPhone as some of our backup photos are missing from our hard drive. Could you please let me know how to start the photos upload from zero?
Thank you for your time.
Hey @C-22, thanks for your comment as well.
Are both of those devices linked to the same Dropbox account? Your account?

Hey Hannah
Hope everything is going well with you.
We have an account each, so there's two accounts.
Thank you for your reply.
Hey @C-22, if this is regarding two different Dropbox accounts, your wife will need to contact us from her account as well.
Regarding your own account, are we okay to send you an email?
