I’m having trouble figuring out where to find my music in Dropbox when I’m in Orpheus. I have Dropbox turned on and I know the music is in there. I have all the folders enabled that would be obvious to contain a certain chart but having trouble finding music that is in Dropbox. There is SD card storage and device storage. I’m sort of mixed up with all this.

Hi Dave, if you are using Dropbox, then your files are coming from Dropbox in whatever folder you put them in. Go to Dropbox.com and login to explore your Dropbox file structure. If you are not using Dropbox, but instead chose to import local folders of music (music stored locally, on your tablet itself) then I’d suggest you grab a file manager app or plug your tablet into your computer so you can navigate the file structure visually in a way you’re comfortable with.
