iPhone Dropbox not getting latest file

i'm working with a Numbers spreadsheet that i have saved to Dropbox. My computer accesses the latest version as does my iPad. My iPhone has a version from a week ago and I can't figure out why. the IP's Dropbox is syncing because i just deleted a bunch of photos and the Mac is showing the changes in the camera uploads.

any ideas why this one file isn't updating?

what if you tell iphone dropbox to make the numbers spreadsheet a favorite in the DB app? I think that forces a re-download, and may force the app to go get whatever version is currently showing on the server.

no but this is interesting. from within dropbox i emailed a copy of the file to myself. turns out when you do that dropbox sends a link to download the file. the downloaded file is the current version but that's still not the version showing when i view it in dropbox. very odd.
