Dropbox StaffHi 1ncChief, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Are you referring to having the files in your Dropbox folder sync to other devices? Is the Dropbox desktop application installed and running?
It is possible to edit from other devices, to have them then sync to others.
This will help me to assist further!
Yes, sync across all devices. Everything looks correct on my main PC but shows up a bit quirky on other devices (PC's & my smartphone) that have my Dropbox account installed in running.

Hey 1ncChief, sorry to jump in here, but could you clarify your devices' OS versions and the version of the Dropbox app installed there as well?
Do you see all of your files and edits on the website?
Hi Walter,
My main PC runs Windows 10 Home and my phone is running Android version 13. The only other device I use regularly is a elderly family members older HP with some version of Windows OS (maybe 10?).
Version 346.2.6 is what is installed on my phone. Really appreciate the help!
To finish answering your questions Walter (sorry), I just uploaded my files to the Dropbox website and they show up the same on there as they do on other devices (slightly different, but definitely readable). They are not as they appear on my PC. Maybe it is because these documents were created and edited on WordPad?
