I have been keeping my books and C2O on Dropbox and all working brilliantly.

HOwever I am now in the process of tidying up the metadata which, of course needs me to then regenerate ned C2O files.

I wanted to access these from a second computer and rather than wait for dropbox to sync I decided to copy the dropbox folder to USB drive and copy from that to second (remote location).

Over the weekend I tweaked a few more books and so regenerated C2O again - now I have it set to minimise file changes and when I resync'd data to USB drive it found 175 files had changed - fine, OK

Then I noticed poor old drobox had been working full tilt for 2 days and STILL had 26,000 file to upload???? Huh????

Surely just the 175 should have needed reuploading to DB?

Anyone else seen this - anyone know why??
