To find your files, you will need to go to the main source... My computer or Computer or possibly hard drive - you might have them in My Documents. You can open the desktop shortcut to find your files, but DO NOT copy the shortcut on your desktop screen (that is just a shortcut, not the actual file).

To copy your file or folder, click on your file or folder, click Control+C (on a MAC Command+C).

You can also drag your files into Dropbox, but please DO NOT use the shortcut on your desktop. Go to the source of your files: My Computer, Computer, My Documents, or at least open the shortcut and drag the files from there.

Paste your files (using Control-V or Command-V) onto your home directory if your school or company has a server. At WCPSS, we will automatically move this for you as it's in the WCPSS "cloud." Again, do not drag and drop or copy from desktop shortcuts!! Always go to the source Let WCPSS protect your stuff.

Go to your Drive, click the red "new" button, and the "upload a folder" option. Choose the folder you wish to upload to your Drive, upload all the files. Check on a different computer to make sure all of your files are actually there.

Go to another computer and pull up your dropbox account or login to get to your home directory or plug in your flash drive. If your files are there (in any of the 3 locations), then you saved them properly.
