What happens if the folders you're trying to merge contain subfolders? Do the subfolders get merged as well?
Phil: Good question. Create some sample files (TextEdit documents will do) and try it to see. Report back.
I tried following your instructions to merge two folders, however I did not get the box stating they will merge. Instead I got a box which said it would replace (and it did). No merge resulted.
Mary: First, are you using Sierra? Second, are you doing it the same exact way? If you simply try to drag and drop files into a folder, it won't work. You have to move one folder into the same location as the other just as I do in the video. Watch it closely. Also, if there is nothing to merge (no additional files) then replace is the same as merge.
