How to integrate graphic files into latex files on Box

I am working on a talk in Latex and it needs some graphic files for illustration. The tex file and the png and jpeg files sit inside the same folder on Box and unfortunately the image files can never be found when trying to  compile the tex into pdf files on Texshop.(1) There seems to be some problem with Box seeing graphic files in the same folder as the tex file that uses them. I looked at the ‘file info’ details and I have permissions to read and write for all involved. The info file actually displays the correct graphic file that Texshop cannot access. Weird. All looks good, but inside Box compilations, the graphic files cannot be found, so the console of Texshop tells me.(2) I have another folder on Box with tex and graphic files and those can always be compiled together easily in Texshop. Their file infos do not look any different at all and they work together as designed.(3) I cannot see any way out to correct this Box incompatability mess up.  I tried to export the tex and grap
