When running symlink to connect cloud backup to application support directory, the command in Step 4 for MacOS should be

ln -s <CloudDirectory> <AppSupportDirectory/foldername>

(ln -s takes source then target as arguments, not the other way around)

An easy rule to remember is that the argument order for ln is the same as for cp(1): The first argument needs to exist, the second one is created.
