<b>3. The Connection Will Load</b><br>

<b>4. Check the Status of the Dropbox</b><br>
On the lower right hand corner you can hover over the Dropbox icon and see if it's syncing. If it's actively syncing and you can see progress, it probably means there's quite a bit to upload and it's not finished. You can also right click on the icon to see a more detail view of what's happening<br><br>

<b>5. Launch Dropbox</b><br>
If the Dropbox icon isn't there in the right hand lower corner, you may need to simply start it. On the desktop you'll see a Dropbox shortcut. Launch it. Watch while it gets going to make sure it starts syncing. You should be good to go.<br><br>

<b>6. Restarting Dropbox</b><br>
Sometimes, Dropbox is on and it's simply stalled. That's not too common but it does happen. In this case you'll want to quit the Dropbox application and start it again. Right click on the Dropbox icon in the lower right hand side. Then click on the CSPL logo. Then click quit. This will quit the application. Give it a moment before relaunching it as described in step 5.<br><br>
