Migrating from Dropbox to Google Backup and Sync

 

1. Copy your Dropbox folder to a differently named folder
2. Download and Install Google Backup and Sync
3. Click on the Google Backup and Sync tray icon or quick launch icon (looks like a cloud with an up arrow)
4. A setup wizard will pop up
5. Sign in to your MLML Google Account
6. In the “My Laptop” section (May say “My Desktop” if you have a Desktop or “My Macbook”, etc.), click “Choose Folder” and select the copied Dropbox folder
7. Check the box next to that folder
8. In the Google Drive section, check any folder in your Google Drive you would like to sync back to your computer. It will sync everything not in a folder (In your Google Drive base folder)

• There is an option to not sync from Google Drive to this computer

Finish up and let your files sync (this will take awhile)

You can access these settings later by clicking on the Google Backup And Sync icon, clicking the three vertical dots icon, and clicking preferences
