Hi Keolatina09, thanks for messaging the Community.
Could you clarify what you're experiencing in more detail, as I'm not sure what the issue is in this case?
Are photos being uploaded from the camera incorrectly somehow? Are you not able to locate them on the site?
This will help me to assist further!
HEY IM SORRY IT TOOK AWHILE TO GET BACK TO YOU BUT SO I BOUGHT A USB CORD TO TRANSFER THE PICS I TOOK WITH CAMERA BUT WHEN I PLUGGED CORD FROM MY LAPTOP TO MY CAMERA AND TURN IT ON IT DIDNT UP LOAD ALL PICTURES FROM CAMERA TO COMPUTER, ANY IDEAS WHAT IT COULD BE?

Thanks for the info, have you been using the automatic camera uploads feature on the Dropbox desktop application, or have you been transferring the images manually to your computer?
Oh no, that sounds frustrating! It happens sometimes when file names or metadata get mixed up. I’d suggest double-checking the upload folder on your laptop to make sure all the soccer game photos are there. If they are, you can manually re-upload them to Dropbox. If you’re unsure which ones are missing, sorting by date or using a photo management app might help. In the future, renaming the files before uploading can make things easier. Hope you recover all those precious soccer memories
