MeganI don't know how to do that. I don't know the original paths. I don't even know how they got there in the first place, as I never chose to backup these three local folders.
Also, can you clarify, I was seeking an answer to my prior response - as to why what is supposed to show with alt-H (option-H) is not what I am seeing?
When I get to the Account section and hold down option+H (no "alt" key on Mac?) I don't get shown the "Reset OS folder locations" option - instead I get shown three options: Fix Permissions, Fix Hardlinks, or Reset File System Warning options. At the bottom of the screen that pops up, there is also a button that says Add Team Account. I can't get a screenshot as the pop-up that shows these disappears as soon as I release the keys?
Thank you for trying to help fix this issue.

Hi again Megan do you have remote in support. Now it is really messed up. I tried to move the My Local out of Drobox into my harddrive, which seemed ok. Then I tried to delete it out of my harddrive, and now my Finder and Downloads do not work AT ALL. I really need more than typing this out. How do I request remote in support?
