iPhotos no longer working with iCloud on my iMac after updating dropbox

How do move my iPhotos library to a local folder on my iMac so that it once again syncs with iCloud.  I need my iPhone to synch with my apps through iCloud.

Yes that is a big thing I wanted to be able to do.  But after some experimentation I have now managed to do that - it is different to what I expected .  It looks like you have to hold shift and then click on each photo you want to move.  I get the message photo could not be moved because it does not exist for some of the photos  - when I know they do - strange.  I accept I have to learn how this new system works.  Is there a user guide I can access.

Hi Steve A.15, currently, there isn't a user guide for the steps you're taking to move files to another location.
