"Your dropbox is full" but it isn't

[Solomon N.]

On Mac air with newest OS. I uninstalled the app, checked the hard drive, restarted the computer, barked at the moon, clapped twice and prayed to allah. The problem remains. 

I refuse to pay to upgrade. I cannot sync additional files.

Yes Liz can be used for anything and it works great

[Pam R.5]

this is all complete b.s.  Dropbox does not work.  I will be sure to spread the word.

[Liz E.]

Is there going to be any response to this from Dropbox?  Or is the plan to make free account holders into miserable users so they pay to upgrade for a potentially better service?  If so, it's not a great idea.

Apologies, I was under the impression that Dropbox used the forum to resolve customer problems.  I'll open a support ticket.

[Solomon N.]

Rich they don't respond. I've been waiting a year.

how do I stop the constant dropbox notifications popping up?!!

[Mark]

You can try and change notifications within the Preferences menu of the Dropbox app, but, I'm not sure you can stop full notifications.

Everytime I start Windows (and by extension Dropbox) I get a message that my dropbox is full. My dropbox is not full and the app itself says I'm using just under 6% of my available 2 GB.  This message appears even after permanently deleting deleted files. In addition my other PC with the app does not recieve the message. A reinstall of Dropbox did not fix the issue. Is there a fix other than deleting dropbox? 

[Mark]

Are you sure it isnt saying you are running out of hard drive space?

Note as well that deleted items do not use quota, so, permanently deleting files will have no effect.
