Hey there, Joy18 let's see what we can find about this!
Would you mind clarifying your account's current quota? You can check more about this here.
If you visit your account on Dropbox.com are you able to open and view your files there?
Also, when you check your local files inside your Dropbox folder, what is the icon that they have next to them? Feel free to send me a screenshot of the icons, and the error in order for me to have a visual too.
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

Hey Joy18!
I was wondering if you caught my colleague's reply and if you're still having this issue.
If you resolved it, do let us know what worked for you.
Thanks!
