He hasn't connected you to his Dropbox - as thats not possible. He has shared you a folder exactly as Richard said. And that uses your quota. You get 0 benefit from him being a Pro user.

OK, I didn't use the proper word when I said "share." Of course we are not "sharing" the folder. I should have stated that he invited me to connect with HIS Drop Box, so we could exchange files.
So with that clarified, I still do not understand why it says MY folder is full, when it is COMPLETELY EMPTY?
When I first signed up, I was able to put things into my folder. Now I no longer can. This is what I can not figure out.
