Storage space
I am a free account user with just the basic 2 GB of space. My computer shows I have 715MB and my dropbox app also confirms I have 1.8GB unused space. So why am I getting messages saying my Dropbox ...

What does www.dropbox.com/home show in terms of files? Is that the same as on your machine?
What about www.dropbox.com/account/plan ? That is the quota that matters

www.dropbox.com/account/plan shows I'm using 0.9 GB of 2.75 GB
Files on computer match those on dropbox
I'm guessing I should assume messages from Dropbox saying I'm out of space are just a ploy to get me to sign up for paid account then, and can just be ignored!!
Thanks

Didn't help me. Validated that my storage is in my "Plan" which shows I have plenty of space left.

Do you have enough hard drive space? Are you sure the error isnt from your computer?
Dropbox wont be saying it cannot sync if you have space according to the website.
Can you post a screenshot?

My account says that I'm using 54gb of space, but the files shown are using less than 2gb. All was fine before I was asked to trial a paid account, and the trial expired.
