Hey 1FF, let's jump right into this!
I'm not entirely sure what the end goal is here. Would you be able to let me know more?
You mentioned that videos tell you to go to settings, then preferences & access your Sync tab, however I'd like some additional info as to what you wish to achieve, in order to guide you.
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

hi thank you for getting back to me.
So i have drop box online however i need to have them synced to my laptop. the drop box is shared by a few of us, and previously i could access them within the files on my old laptop. now i can only get them online - i have watched videos to help but i do not have the sync button they are needing me to select. from there i believe i then selected which files i want to sync?
