Dropbox says full but I have deleted everything, uninstalled app, etc.

I upgraded briefly from the free 2GB but felt $12/mth was too steep and Smugmug better for photos so I discontinued. Then I deleted all the files in Dropbox, including those in the Deleted Files fold...

    Yes. I deleted everything--though I had missed one folder within a folder that had a lot. After deleting that, the next day I finally stopped seeing the Dropbox is full message. So all is well for the moment. Thanks for replying.

hoho1, I have same problem as you. After deleting much, it still says my dropbox is full. I get into Delete box and find the deleted items all there. And I can't find any button to clear all the Delete box items.

Loy1 - deleted items dont use up quota so its not worth deleting them.
