I've been using MD for several years quite successfully. I usually update only my desktop computer to the new versions until I verify all is okay. I'm currently running build 1600 on both my computers. My iMac is on 10.11.6 el Capitan. I just recently updated my laptop to 10.12.3.

My data file is, and has almost always been, stored on Dropbox. I don't open the file on both computers at the same time. I wait until the upload/download to Dropbox is complete before I open it on the other computer.

My issue is that while I usually do most of my work with my iMac, I wanted to test MD on my laptop after the OS upgrade. To my dismay, I'm seeing dozens of old reminders going back 18 months that have already been resolved. They were not there until I updated my OS.

Is there somewhere that these may be residing on my laptop that I can safely delete them? Or do I need to do an OS rollback?

TIA, Fred

    My goof - apparently when I updated to 2017, the app put the file in the containers folder, not Dropbox. The laptop was accessing the Dropbox file so they never matched. Moved file to Dropbox and verifed on both computers that all is well.

    Sorry for the false alarm.
