Out of storage so can't sync. Why?

My Dropbox account is 5.25G; my laptop Dropbox file is 2.64 GB - yet Dropbox has stopped synching because I'm out of storage space at 5.26GB and is now completely paralysed. Why?

VMT Matthew,

 

Problem solved!

 

Didn't know that a pen drive had been backed up - not sure how that happened - will investigate & try to prevent future recurrence.

 

Great service from the Community.

 

Best wishes, Rory
