If that's all that's there and you have a copy of that file then I'd go to "Cleanup / Reload Account" in members area and start again.

I don't know what you've uploaded so it's hard to say, you won't be able to upload remotely as you've tried though as remote connections aren't available to free users.
Ii'd cleanup/reload the account and upload using the file manager in members area if I was you.
