    Hey there brandoncaballero - thanks for using Dropbox and happy new Year!

     

    There shouldn't be an issue with this, but note that you can also just download and install the desktop app and let it sync your changes once you get set up on your MacBook Pro anew  (without running it from your backup that is). 

     

    I hope this helps!

Thanks Walter! Everything worked out great. I was just a little worried since I was restoring the entire OS from a back up.
