    Hi conalwn,

     

    I'm happy to hear that everything is back in working order! It's possible that your cache wasn't properly clearing upon signing out and back in, which is the usual operation that would clear out the cached files causing this error message. This problem seems to have resolved itself while we were investigating.

     

    For anyone else receiving this error message, sign out, then sign back in to clear your cached files. If that doesn't work, please let me know and we can take a deeper look!

     

    Regards,

    Ben

I am experiencing a similar problem using a PC.  I started as a Basic user. Through referrals I have 8.25 GB of space available.  I am getting a message at 2GB that I have reached my limit.  

 

 

I am also experiencing problems with syncronising folders.  This is not something that has occurred before.  I think I am using Dropbox for about 10 years now.  I think syncrhonising is connected to the limit on space issue.
