exceeding storage space
I am uploading files from google Drive. I just uploaded a batch of PDF's but not all are showing in the files list. The batch went over my storage quote (2GB). I am now at 124% of my quota. No proble...

Dropbox StaffHey aihand, thanks for posting your questions to the Dropbox Community.
Just to clarify, when you chose to export the files from Google Drive and chose the "delete files from the source after upload", this is an action taken by Google Drive and not Dropbox.
Any files that have successfully been uploaded to your Dropbox, will be found in your All files page here, even if you're over quota.
I'm afraid there's no way to undo this action through Dropbox, nor can you export the uploaded files automatically back to Google Drive.
You can download them to your computer and then re-upload them to Google Drive, if that's a possibility.
Logically, the files that didn't successfully export, should still be in Google Drive, is that not the case?
Let me know if you have any questions.
I have lost the files.
I batch uploaded 1700 files from google drive. It put me in the red line, 124% above storage quota. I was then unable to access these files after the upload attempt. Nor are the files in google drive (I chose the "delete files from source" option before clicking upload).
My storage capacity currently reads 1.2 of 2.0 used. Somehow, shortly after the batched upload attempt, and after advising me I was at 124% and to buy more storage, my dropbox went back down to 1.2 GB. I see less than 50 files from my google uploads. Nor are the files appearing on google drive. The "delete files after upload" was successful, but the upload was not, so the files are somewhere in limbo.
So where are the files? Apx. 1650 files.
Also, you sent me a link to view the contents of my dropbox. How did you get access to my personal files? This seems like a privacy and security threat.
