  • I could no longer open that text file through the Dropbox app on the tablet.
  • I was able to open and edit the text file from the Dropbox files cache, using ES File Explorer.
  • Once saved and closed, the file entry in the Dropbox app changed to show 'Waiting to upload'.
  • The file did not synchronise over wifi to my desktop PC.

Interestingly, even after I reconnected the wifi the file didn't synchronise immediately. I had to tap on it again in Dropbox, at which point it got sent.
