Sorry Hannah, I can't see anyway I can navigate to the folders which are in a known location, i.e on the explorer tree of my hard drive, AND on the Dropbox tree. My understanding is I need to take them from the hard drive. I have tried copying the folders in order to paste into the box, with no success, and there is no browse or import facility in the box.
Further help much appreciated.

That's not how it's done. When you have the Selective Sync window open, you can just check and uncheck the folders that you want to sync. In this screenshot, all of the folders are unchecked so they will not sync to that computer. They will only exist in my account online. If I were to check any of the folders and click Update, they would start to sync down to that computer.
