Your Events page and the version history of a file is all the information that's available.
Also keep in mind that changing your account's password will not prevent access from devices that are already linked to your account, and changing the password doesn't break the link. Once a device is linked, it uses a secure token, and not your password, to communicate. The only way to prevent a linked device from connecting is to remove it from your account.

You should be able to access this info through our version history feature.
I hope this helps, but let me know if you have any questions!
