I have used 1.37 out of 8GB of space in Dropbox, 6GB of which is from referrals. I have been sent a shared Dropbox folder to add to my Dropbox but it takes me to a new plan page with the message " Your account is almost out of storage".

But now the pictures/files have gone. Gutted. this is the only DB account i have. I have checked deleted items but nothing in…

I can no longer open location for various file types in Explorer. I do not want to open them on dropbox.com. I want to find and open the files that are on my computer, that is why I am searching for them. Files now instantly open when clicking them instead of double-clicking. This is insanely obnoxious when you're…
