Hi Megan,
The problem occurs with all attempts for me to use the "scan" option in Dropbox. It appears to scan correctly but just gets locked up on the save process.
I deleted Dropbox and then reinstalled in from the Apple store. I don't know how to "clear the cache" other than that.
I am using version 372.2 of Dropbox.

Hey mstomasik, to clear the Dropbox cache, open your Dropbox app, tap on "account", then on the gear icon and then on "clear cache".
Let me know how it goes!

I have cleared the cache and it still hangs up on the save routine.

Hi from me as well, mstomasik. Can you send over a screenshot of what you see on your end, when the scan gets stuck?
Also, is "Auto Capture" set to On or Off? You can check the status of Auto Capture by looking at the "Auto" icon at the top when capturing a scan.
