I just want to share my photos or videos to my computer/external hard drive. How to do so?
I just want to share my photos or videos to my computer/external hard drive. How can I do this seemingly simple task?

What exactly are you trying to do and we can try and advise?
If you are wanting to have Dropbox automatically move files and photos to another directory or folder then this isn't possible I'm afraid.
- No I don’t necessarily need anything to be automatic I just want to select photos or videos from my Dropbox and either copy or move them to my external hard drive. I have it connected to my computer and my Dropbox opened up to my pictures and videos but I can’t seem to see how to move them (or copy) to my external hard drive

The Dropbox folder on your computer is a folder like any other. Just make sure whatever you want is set to 'offline access' and copy/paste or drag/drop as anything else.
