another Dropbox user, will that file/folder appear in the other

Answers  up vote 8 down vote accepted  If that user has set the
shared file/folder to sync to their computer then yes, it will
stay updated when their dropbox syncs.  Keep in mind, though,
that there are many ways that the file/folder could be out of
sync:    • Other person hasn't turned on their computer   •
Other person hasn't turned on syncing for that file/folder   •
Other person has Dropbox setup to not auto-sync   • Other person
has that file open and Dropbox can't update the file because
it's in use. share|improve this answer add comment  Yes! As long
as both the users are connected to the internet, it would work.
The sync may not occur if automatically synchronization is
disabled on any of the computers.  share|improve this answer add
