Thanks so much for your assistance.

I didn't set up the backup feature on the new computer. I did a direct transfer of files and settings from my old mac so I didn't think I'd need to make any changes (but clearly that was a mistaken assumption).

I've attached screenshots of the 2 'desktops'....

Hi suite150, just to clarify to ensure I have it right.
If this is the case, then there isn't any issue really. You can move the files from the 'Desktop' folder (the one in the Favorites bar), into the visual desktop folder. This will move files out of the Dropbox folder as well.
You should also be able to create a shortcut to the correct desktop folder, by finding said folder using these steps in your Home menu, and then dragging that folder to the Favourites menu.
If this works, you can do the same with the Downloads and Documents folders.
