How to disable apps from auto-refreshing?

I've got an iPad 2 with the latest iOS on it. Except for one annoying bit of behavior, I love it. What is so irritating is how iOS seems to refresh an app if you leave it and then return. A case in point: I use Zite to read news of all sorts. Quite often I'll click a link in a Zite article, which then opens Safari or the iTunes store, or some other app. After I complete my business in the second app, I double-click the home button and select Zite to continue. iOS will cause Zite to go through a refresh cycle and I wind up on page 1 rather than within the article I was reading. This means I have to swipe through any number of pages to find the original article, which is made more difficult because Zite, on refresh, has reordered articles and added new ones to the mix.
This is not unique to Zite though this is the app where I notice it most. I have found that returning to Safari after using another app will cause Safari to refresh and occasionally not display the page I was visiting immediately, causing me to retrieve the history.
Is there any setting anywhere that will disable this?
Thanks for any advice,
-Tod

I do not believe there is a way. You can disable the camera in restrictions that would prevent access to the camera but then you would not be able to use it either and you would need enable the camera again in restrictions if you wanted to use it.

How to disable app from opening into full screen mode

Dear all I'm on OSX 10.8.4 and every time i start an app it'll go to full screen even after quiting it and opening the app again. Is there a way to stop this from happening

Full-screen mode is controlled by you. If you take it OUT of full-screen mode (go to the very top right of the screen, wait for the menubar to drop down, click the blue inward-facing arrow icon), and THEN quit the app, it will remember the preference and open in normal windowed-mode next time.

How to disable App tabs (pined tabs) from being started automatically?

how to disable App tabs (pined tabs) from being started automatically?
because the option [Don't load tabs until selected] dose not work with it, and it keeps starting every time when I restart Firefox.
Please help me!

Don't bother, I reached to the solution by my self, you can do it as following:
Type "about:config" [ without quotation marks! ] in the Location Bar (address bar) and press Enter to display the list of preferences, as shown in the picture '''#1''' in Firefox 17 on Windows 7.
If you see a page with the warning message as shown in picture '''#2''', This might void your warranty!, click the button labeled "I'll be careful, I promise!", to continue (in fact, there is no warranty whatsoever, it's more a joke to ensure that users are aware of what they are about to do). uncheck the check-box there to avoid the warning in the future.
Now at the search bar in the picture '''#3''' type: ''tab'' and look for the
'''preference name:'''
browser.sessionstore.restore_pinned_tabs_on_demand
or you can '''copy''' it directly to the search bar,
'''Next,''' follow the instruction in picture '''#3''' .
Just in case if the pictures didn't appear, do ''these steps'':
'''First:''' Right click at the preference name that we searched for.
'''Next,''' click Toggle to change the value from false to true.
'''Or,''' double click on it and it will change.
'''Finally,''' restart Firefox and you will notice that they don't load automatically until you click on it.
That's it, Good luck to all. ''';-)'''
'''Note''': The bolded font preferences list is the user modified, and the un-bolded is the default setting.
'''Warning''': Modifying preferences can, in rare circumstances, break Firefox, Thunderbird or the Mozilla Suite, or can cause strange behavior. Only do so if you know what you are doing or are following trustworthy advice.
Additional INFO:
about:config is a feature of Mozilla applications which lists application settings (known as preferences) that are read from the profile files prefs.js and user.js, and from application defaults. Many of these preferences are not present in the Options or Preferences dialog. Using about:config is one of several methods of modifying preferences and adding other "hidden" ones.

G,
You might try downloading Bluetooth Connect & Stop Play from the playstore.
I found this on the web and it may help:

How to prevent apps from syncing in the new version of itunes?

Hey there.
I brang my macbook to Applestore cause it had a problem and they downloaded the latest version of itunes. Everything's fine and my music, videos and apps are in the new itunes like before. But now, when I want to sync my iphone, a pop window asks me to give the password of the itunes account I used to download some of my apps or it will delete them and their data. The problem is that one of these accounts is an old friend's one and I actually lost all contact with him. So basically now I can't sync my iphone at all or it will delete all my apps.
Has anyone any idea how to sort that out? Or at least knows how to prevent apps from syncing in this new version of itunes?
Thanks for your help

How to disable App Caching in 10.9

Hi All,
As much as I think that the new memory management system in OS X 10.9 is a very nice idea, it really doesn't work for me because I have Virtual Machines stopping and starting and the despite the fact that they are only trying to pull 512MB each, the system just can't handle pushing that much to them.
Is there a way to disable this app/file caching and get back to something more to the style of the old memory management system - I really want to have FREE memory available for when I actually need it - I really don't care if free memory is wasted memory, free memory is what works for me
I have a Mid 2009 13" MBP with a 2.2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 8GB of RAM
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I can't bear my system grinding to a halt with several servers running in the background - the sort of thing that it could handle just fine under 10.8 - also, downgrading is not an option for me!

Unfortunately, no - App Nap only applies to running applications, and saving processing power and thus energy, whereas the app preloading is all about being clever about which files are in use and keeping as many as possible crammed into the memory.
However, disabling app nap is a useful thing to know, thanks!

That is correct if there is a similar application made for the computer. It will not be sold through iTunes. Either you get it from the developer's website or look for it in the App Store or look for it at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads .
