Hi Jay
Thank you for your answer. I found some folders in the "deleted objects". Dont know how much mb.....i deleted them finaly but that doesnt change the problem.
I see some foldes in the "shared folders" with about 5gb. But i cant do anything with them. When i point on it with the mouse the only option is "add to dropbox" (?)
Whe i click on one of the foldes the only answer is "not enough space in your dropbox". But no way to delete that....
I added a screenshot.
My dropbox is in German so i have to translate....maybe not perfect;-)
Thank you
Franz

Dropbox StaffIt looks like these are shared folders that haven't been added to your account, so they aren't taking up any space, meaning that the quota is used up elsewhere.
Have you checked the backups page I mentioned previously to see if there's anything there?
Thank you for remembering me about this.
There was a backup of an external drive, this tool was not in my focus....because i never use it, senseless for me (backup a 150gb external drive on 5gb dropbox ?)
Maybe i or my wife klick on yes one time.....
Now the box is empty, thank you for your help!
