[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1571648"] That's because dropbox doesn't really "exist" as much as it provides a service. The service is that any file dropped in the dropbox is replicated to all other linked dropboxes as quickly as possible. And any deletions are deleted from all DBs the same way. So be careful with your iTunes library in the dropbox folder as ANY change on ANY device that is linked to it will replicate to ALL devices. On the iPhone the Dropbox app merely lets you see what's at Dropbox.com in your account and download to the iPhone what you need. But you CAN delete from the iPhone, so the same caution applies.
