Not possible to choose specific folder from external Hard drive, in order to sync.
I try to choose for backup 2 subfolder from extern folder but always are 2 folders checked to begin with. I try and try with same result.

Hey jaroslawistok, sorry to jump in here, but could you confirm that you're looking at your backups page when trying to find your backed up files and not your homepage?
Have you tried enabling the backup from the backups page by the way?
As for the high CPU usage, can you let us know if the app is still syncing in your system tray/menu bar or if it's up to date?

I found this folders and files really online on backups page.
But I don't understand why they are not to see in finder.

Backing up your files to Dropbox is different than syncing them jaroslawistok
If you'd like to see these folders within Finder, you can copy them inside your Dropbox folder and let the app sync.
