File sharing and invites to view/edit folders
Hello all,
I'm new to the Dropbox space and have a question because I'm SO confused! I have a client who invited me to view folders and also to edit the folders. Does this affect my personal Dropbox account and how much space I have? I have a free account right now and would need to upgrade to view everything my client sent me. Is there a way to share the account so that my space isn't affected? Hope this makes sense!
Thanks
Read only links that you view on the website do not use up quotas.
Shared folders you need for access to edit files do take up quota.
There isnt a way to share space unless the other person has a Business account and adds you to the team.

- When I try inviting someone to share a folder on the iPhone app, I get an error message: failed to load sharing screen. Could not retrieve sharing information.
I don’t get past this….. I have a free DB account. My client has a Business account.
She said she gave me access and when I can see all their folder but it says MY dropbox is full and its all their files!
Therefore I cannot upload a file that I did work on for them as it says I need to add storage.
I was understanding that if she sent me a link it took me right to THEIR dropbox account where I can edit/upload.
Why isnt this working?? she did click on add user/share and it automatically sent me an email with the link which is what I clicked on to get in/see all this.
HELP this is effecting my creds.
