Thank you, I was successful in creating the alias.
I'll have to remember the shortcut to send something to the dock though. :)

You could also make an alias or shortcut by using command-L when you're in
your home folder, on your dropbox folder, as if you were going to open it.
Type command-L, and the alias will appear in your home folder. When it does,
just move it to wherever you want it, like your desktop. Then, whenever you
want to go to your dropbox folder, just go to your desktop, find the dropbox
alias, and press command-O, and the folder willll open.
To add the dropbox folder to your dock, go to the dropbox folder in your
home folder, an when you're on it, do command-shift-T, and the folder will
then be on your dock.

H. Then type d r. That should take you to the dropbox folder. Press
command O to open and you're there. I can do this in less than a
second using this method. YOu can also copy the folder to your desktop
then delete it from it's previous location. I don't know how to add
things to the dock or desktop. I'm quite new to the Mac myself.

Hello all,
Is there a quick way to get to my Dropbox folder, that I'm unaware of?
Can I somehow copy it to my desktop or to my dock?
Lol, what I'd really love is a shortcut key, but I have no idea how to go
about that one. It is so nice to hit command-shift-O for documents or
command-option-l for downloads. I think I have those correctly. :)
Something like that would be great to quickly open dropbox.
Thanks for continuing to teach a newby. :)
