Where are my files or folder
My drop box says it is full but I cannot find a single file or folder. Where would they be?
Does anything appear at www.dropbox.com/home ? If not is it possible you've enabled Backups and thats using the space instead? www.dropbox.com/backups ?

I think they were in the backup. I deleted the folder and I will see if that message is gone regarding the full dropbox

Hi jjrg7, how are you?
Is the message still there, even after you deleted your Backup? Can you check and let me know?
Thanks!

It took a while, but yes, in fact today the message of my dropbox being full is gone. Any idea how to ensure files I save on drop box only go into the folders visible on my home page and not some mystery location?

Hi jjrg7, the content you upload to Dropbox will go where you choose for it to go.
If you upload it on the root of the account, then it'll be visible in your Home page.
