This a pretty basic question, so please excuse it. I work on a iMac and Macbook Pro. I want to put all my genealogy files (including Reunion 12 software) in Dropbox. After I have installed Dropbox onto both computers, what do I put where? In the Favourites window, do I remove the My Documents, Downloads and other folders that are under me as the User and, in their place, create identical folders (My Documents, Downloads, etc.) in Dropbox and then put an alias of those folders into the favourites window? When I work on a document in one of those alias folders, will it automatically be synced in Dropbox wherever I access it? One last thing, if I am not on the internet, can I access the contents of whatver is in the alias files? If not, how do I make sure I have a copy on my computer hard drive of whatver I have put in Dropbox (and make sure whatever is on my computer hard drive is synced to what is in Dropbox). Thanks.
