Trouble syncing file with Dropbox
Using Keepass and the file does not automatically sync even though I have Keepass file database pointed to /Dropbox/Keepass/**.kdb file.
What I have to do on the Kindle is open up the *.kdb file in ES File Explorer to access the file. When I open the file through the Keepass App, it does not come up with the updated Dropbox file. Thanks for any insight. |

The same thing happens to me on my tab, I've just gotten used to navigating to the file since I want the most recent copy.

Sounds like an app bug. I would report it to the Developer.

The Dropbox App does not sync.
You have to download each file if it did it automatically you would soon fill the storage up on your device. |

My dropbox files syncs fine but for whatever reason you have to keep pointing the app to the file.

The problem is the other app they use is not finding the database file they downloaded from Dropbox. So it's not Dropbox that isn't syncing it's the Keepass app that isn't updating it's database file. So technically this has nothing to do with Dropbox. |
