I don't understand.... I was actively doing this on my MacBook Air. I unfortunately water damaged it a few days ago and had to buy a new MacBook.

Hey AlisonLawton, sorry to hear about any frustration this may have caused you; let’s see what could be done to return to your previous state of affairs. 
 
From what I gather from your description, it looks like you used to follow Nate_C’s instructions here to save your files to Dropbox on your Mac, is this the case? If so, could you try replicating once again referencing these instructions & let me know here if you’re facing any issues along the way or you need further guidance in any way? Thanks in advance for the time you’re devoting to work on that with me & I’ll be awaiting your next reply here with the outcome!
