Making space on my computer with online-only files
My computer has ran out of space. The space is taken up by DropBox.
I used the hard drive manager to set some files to online only, I think I even set some folders that way. There are check marks and it said it did that, but it didn't give me the space that it said it would create. I am unsure if this is because DropBox has not had room to Sync? Or some other reason.
I don't need all my files to be accessed on my Computer, and I can't figure out how to make things work again : Any ideas?

Hey JoleneSugarbaker - thanks for using Dropbox and happy Monday!
Did you give the Dropbox desktop app enough time to sync your changes after making your files and folders online-only?
Could you maybe take a look at your computer's system tray/menu bar and let us know the app's exact status and version?
Let us know what you find and we'll take it from there.
