Why do shared folders by others count against my Dropbox space?
The logic provide by Dropbox team earlier is utter nonsense. According to dropbox we are accessing your own COPY of the folder within our account. I dont believe dropbox engineering team has designed such a redundant software. I can understand if they are copied in case other users want to edit the file, but else it is a ridiculous excuse by Dropbox to make money saying "its to cover the increased costs associated with sharing". And technology is already advanced to allow other users with editing access to files without copying those files. Can dropbox comment on this?Solved192Views1like1Comment

Shared Folder - Not Enough Space To Access Folder
So I just started paying for DropBox specifically to allow myself and some online friends to upload/share larger files with each other. I've got 1.9TB free. However, my friends are reporting they can't access the folder I share with them with an error "Not enough space to access the folder". But I've got 1.9TB free. Why wouldn't they be able to access it? Can't work it out. There doesn't appear to be any limits on the folder I'm sharing with them.Solved1.4KViews1like5Comments
