How can I fix the application has stopped due to insufficient memory error?

AC Question

How can I fix "the application has stopped due to insufficient memory" error.

When working with Dropbox I can "view" a file but if I go to update that file I get a message saying that "the application has stopped due to insufficient memory". Have tried cache cleaners but to no avail. Any ideas?? FT

Move videos, pictures and music to a computer. Restart the phone. If you still don't have enough space, back up some of your larger apps (and move the backups to a computer) and uninstall them (then restart the phone).

You don't need cache cleaners - in Settings/General/Storage is a Cache line. Tapping that will ask if you want to clear all app cache. Say yes and all your app cache space will be cleared. (You can clear system cache in most recoveries, but you aren't using system cache to run Dropbox, so that wouldn't matter.)
