Dropbox sync stuck with simultaneous download and upload
Hi,
I recently made a bunch of changes on my local Dropbox, while simultaneously making another set of changes directly in my online account. In hindsight, this probably wasn't the best idea as now my sync is stuck trying to upload ~7500 and download ~6500 files. The number of files 'syncing' has not changed in days.
Any tips?
Thanks!

Hi Hannah,
Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, those steps didn't resolve the issue. While there was some movement in the number of files in the beginning, it's now sitting at a higher number than before, with no further changes. Anything else I could try?
Cheers,
Eva
