After my iMac crashed I purchased a Mac Studio. I had built a sizable website on my old computer that was backed up on Dropbox (10 backups) and I'm now trying to bring back that website from the Dropbox backups. Not sure how to do it. Can you help?

Hey apollos, I'd be happy to help with this! 

 

Do you have the desktop app installed on your new device? 

 

Could you elaborate a bit more as to what you mean when you say that you try to bring back the website, from Dropbox Backups? Lastly, can you see the content when you visit your account online? 

 

Let me know more!
