    Hi there Mattchidz, thanks for dropping by our Community!

     

    I'm not sure if that's the case, but if you're referring to a shared folder, then all the Dropbox accounts that are members of the share must have the required quota to accommodate it in their account. 

     

    For more information you can have a look here.

     

    Let me know if that clears things up  for you, Matt.
