dropbox says "not enough space" even though I have 2 GB and only 1 file with 35kb is saved :/
Hello,
I cannot understand why dropbox says "not enough space" even though I have 2 GB and only 1 file with 35kb is saved. This is the first time since many years that this happens. 😕
Thank you ...

I have only used 3% of 16.9G of space but I am constantly told I don't have space to import and upload my files despite them only being megabytes in size.
I need to be able to plug a camera in and have the files automatically pulled from the camera onto my HD.
This message prevents this from happening and is a real pest.
Why, when I have acres of storage space am I told I don't have enough left?

Im best guess is that dropbox is backing up one of your drives.
Suggest to check what Dropbox is backing up? these will be called "regular files" and will not be shared with anyone
I found this feature super frustrating, ie my share files whould be below my account size. But then i would have some regular files, which used up all my dropbox space. These regular files where just back from my hard drive- something i didnt realize was happening
You will find back in the top left corner. You will find 9 dots. click on the 9 dots. Back ups are the 4th option down on the list
hope this helps
