You do not have access to these locations from within a sandboxed app.

The recommended way forward is to use a container migration manifest to move 
files in these locations into your container. It is then your app's 
responsibility for presenting a user interface for managing these files.

An alternative is to request a temporary entitlement for the directories you 
wish to access, and then use getpwuid to find the user's home directory. You 
cannot consider this a permanent solution, and should consider offering the 
migration approach as an alternative (perhaps as an in-app process hiding 
behind a confirmation dialog).
