    Hey anthony21 - thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to the Community!

     

    I'm afraid you won't be able to upload to a shared folder if you're over your account's quota limit. You can ask the owner of the folder to create a file request for you instead in this case and a shared link with view only rights if you need to see the folder's content too. 

     

    I hope this helps!
