I had to delete everything from my dropbox account because it gave storage errors. However after deleting everything (My dropbox is empty everywhere), the information about the available space still does not get updated (2.03gb of 2gb used)....I erased every document I have and all the share documents so it is not that. Can someone solve this problem for me please?

Wait a couple of hours and check the space usage again. It's not always instant anymore. Also, check your Backups page for any space being used.
