Hey @Elizabeth6939, thanks for joining the Dropbox Community!

 

You mentioned that you see the takeout files in "Apps>Google Download Your Data"; is that the Apps folder in your Dropbox account?

 

If that's the case, then the move/export should be complete and all you need to do is extract the files.

 

Let me know how it goes, or if I misunderstood, please give me some more info, so I can help you further.

 

Cheers!
