I recently updated my app and all of my files which were purchased and sent to me via dropbox.  They are  no longer there.  I tried the chat box its no help at all.  I logged on the computer all videos and pics are missing.  I went under deleted files nothing.  The item i'm trying to retrieve is from 2021.

I provided the link to it in my reply above. It shows all of the activity on your account. What does it show about the files that you're looking for?

If that is all it shows then you are almost certainly using a new log on. 

 

You need to log out of the app you are using and log on to the correct historic one.

When you signed into the app you created a new account instead of signing into your existing one. Sign out of the app, then sign back in with the correct email address.
