    Hi k w yuen, thanks for messaging today!

     

    You can view your quota usage on your account from this page.

     

    Once you delete enough files on your account to get below the maximum quota, the files will start to sync again.

     

    If you need any further assistance, please let me know!

Hi leelootwo, thanks for posting here today! 

 

Provided that your account has enough space to sync new changes, the app would automatically go back to syncing new content. 

 

With that being said, could you clarify the app's precise syncing status, and your allocated space right now? 

 

Let me know more!
