What is the Dropbox (Old) folder on my computer?
There is a folder in my finder on the left that says Dropbox (old) - I think it is left over from an upgrade sometime ago. I have a new dropbox folder with the dropbox icon that I have been using and...
Just want to confirm to anyone wondering that yes, it is safe to delete. The files won't be deleted from any old linked dropbox accounts, only your computer. I tested it myself (after copying all the folders, just in case). Go ahead and delete!
I have the same thing, only I am unsure if it is safe to delete. I had logged into my work Dropbox and during it's sync I realised it was a mistake. Logged into Dropbox with my home account and it synced my stuff but now I have a Dropbox (Old) folder which I want to delete but has important files in it. Does this delete it from dropbox complete (Meaning me and everyone else sharing loses it). Or is it safe?
