Storage Space
Looking for help with managing the storage space in your Dropbox account? Talk to the Dropbox Community and get advice from members.
I am getting a regular "Your Dropbox is full" pop-up - but I have plenty of space.
This 'appears' to have become a problem since I've added a Work dropbox - though that meay be a red herring.
I get the message despite my personal dropbox only showing 6.6GB of 8.88GB used and my work dropbox showing 300.7MB of 2GB used.
Sorry Ross it's not that easy. I'm using Dropbox Basic.
My dropbox is nowhere near full I have more than 3.5GB free space (75.2% used). and I still constantly throughout the day get the "Your Dropbox is full, upgrade now" message. I have tried multiple times to install the latest version and reboot to no effect. This is a bug not a feature.
I'm also Dropbox basic...but last night when I used my desktop...no 'your dropbox is full' notifications. I think whatever "Ross S." has done 'server-side' has fixed my issues - but I'll keep an eye on it over the next few days to make sure it doesn't return.
Many thanks for your support Ross S. and to Sanchez for getting my voice heard
Sorry sherinik if you're still experiencing problems. Not sure what to suggest. Maybe Ross S. has some ideas for things you can try? You'll probably need to raise your own support ticket so that they have the details of the account you're still having problems with. If you do this and then post your ticket number here they will likely help you out.
I'm off to leave some happy feedback for this forum 🙂
Hello thank you for the reply; I will try this and report back!
Hi,
I'm not a pro user, but my dropbox account genuinely became full a couple of weeks ago, which is where I got my first notification - correctly.
I then resolved the space issue immediately so I'm just over 50% usage, but every day since I've had the windows 10 notification telling me it's full.
Any other suggestions? I do have my dropbox files on my main hd (same as the OS)
Many thanks,
AP.

I am with everyone else here.
This **bleep** pop-up is so annoying. It wouldnt be as bad if it just appeared for a few seconds like every other message. Not to just stay on the screen until removed.
I have used 25% of 3GB. Nothing is in the deleted items box on line either.
Re-installing the app does not clear this **bleep** message. Please sort it!
