If I get this right, the desktop app seems to be completely stuck and it won’t sync anything to your web account, even if you add a very small file to your local Dropbox folder, correct?
Can you right-click on your local Dropbox folder for me, go to “Get info” and send me a screenshot of the window you’ll see next? I'd like to double check the current number of files that it contains, in case it exceeds the 300k soft limit.

Hey hdouglas, let me also jump in here!
How long has the app been stuck in this syncing status?
Try to also make sure that all other apps are closed and that there's no antivirus, firewall, VPN etc. running, and then start the Dropbox app again.
Have you also checked out this article for some possible troubleshooting steps?
