5230 apps continuing to run in background! help...

Hey guys, Ive just got a 5230 and im really pleased with it.
One thing I am finding is that when I use something like the Web, or I access settings, it leaves the little icon which says its running even when I exit back to the home screen.
I thought they would stop running after some time, so I left it over night, but this morning they still have the little icon next to them.
How do I stop them running?????
Thanks guys

Thanks a million for this suggestion!
Never knew that you could hold the Icon for 5 secs to directly exit it!
Was always going to the app and selection exit from the App's menu. and on app hang was rebooting the phone!

    I hear a lot of disk I/O from my iMac 1TB drive.  How can I see apps may be running in background?  Time Machine is not running.

    If you wnat to see the applications that are running, open the Activity Monitor application (it's in /Applications/Utilities). After opening it, select "All Processes" above "Show" in the toolbar, and you will see all the processes that are running.
    I/O errors often happen on a damaged hard drive. If you are receiving that error, you should make a backup with Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner as soon as possible and take your Mac to an Apple Store or reseller to get another hard disk.
    If the warranty is void, you can try installing it yourself, but note that there are some iMacs which are very difficult to have the hard drive replaced. Search the steps in iFixit > http://www.ifixit.com

  • Here is How you close out an iPhone app that is running in the background

    How do you close out an iPhone app that is running in the background in the new iOS 4? We’ve had more than one reader ask this question since the launch of the new iPhone operating system, and the iPhone 4, last week. Some have asked about this due to battery drain concerns, and others just because they want to be able to shut down a backgrounded app.
    So this seems as good a time as any to share a quick tip on how you can force apps to close in the new iOS 4.
    There are two ways to fore an app to close down under iOS 4. The first is by doing a ‘force quit’ on the app, just as we have done under the previous version of the iPhone OS. To do this, you press and hold the power button while you are in the app you want to close down. Wait for the ‘Slide to power off’ bar appears across the top of the iPhone – then don’t hit Cancel, but instead just hold down the Home button continuously until the app closes and you drop back to the home screen.
    The much easier method now available in iOS 4 is to use the Multitasking bar to close any app you want. Here’s how:
    – Double tap the Home button to bring up the Multitasking bar
    – Press and hold anywhere on the multitasking bar until the icons on it start to wiggle.
    – While they are wiggling, each icon has a Minus sign symbol above it.
    – Press the Minus symbol above any app to close it down.
    That’s it. This will work for any app you want to close, including the Apple built-in apps like Mail and Safari etc.
    Hope this quick tip is helpful to some of you who are getting to know iOS 4.

    The apps on the bottom are recently accessed apps. Instead of closing when you exit the app they go into a suspended state, and will load faster when you next launch them. Unless they are a streaming app (like Pandora) they do not use any power when they appear in the active app list.
    This information, as well as the OP's post, are in the latest user guide. I guess nobody reads manuals anymore

  • Looking for a drum loop app that will run in the background. What are you using?

    Looking for a drum loop app that will run in the background. Suggestions? What are you using? I tried Loopseque and I like it, but I can't make it run once I switch apps. Help please.

        That's definitely strange, kzmidge. I want a working phone in your hands though. I noticed you mentioned you received the suggestion to complete a reset. Did you already do that? Is it working again? Are you receiving an error message?
    If you hesitated a little longer to complete the reset, you can try to place your phone into Safe Mode http://vz.to/rxg0ii and see if you can access mobile sites from your browser. This mode will stop 3rd party applications from running, so you won't be able to use the apps you mentioned but we may be able to narrow down the trouble in Safe Mode. If the mobile sites work, that means the trouble may be in a recently downloaded application and you may be able to avoid the reset my uninstalling some of your more recently installed applications. If it's still giving you trouble, the reset http://vz.to/18wzOCi is the next best step.

  • How to DEBUG a function module running in background mode? Please help!

    Hi Experts,
       I am calling a function module in my ABAP code in background module using the following syntax:
      CALL FUNCTION 'YBBC2_CREATE_SNAPSHOT' IN BACKGROUND TASK
              TABLES
                itab_std_format_inv = itab_std_format_inv
                itab_snapshot_inv = itab_snapshot_inv.
            COMMIT WORK.
    If I put the breakpoint in the CALL FUNCTION line and execute the program, the debugger does not take me to the valled function module. This may be because I am running the function module as background task.
    I cannot comment this  "IN BACKGROUND TASK" statement as well since i am debugging in Quality system where I don't have change access.
    So how to DEBUG a function module running in background mode? Please help!
    Thanks
    Gopal

    Hi,
    You could try to use the following trick:
    (1) Put an endless loop into the coding of your function module where you want to start debugging, e.g.
      DATA:
        lx_exit_loop(1)     TYPE c.
      lx_exit_loop = ' '.
      DO.
        IF ( lx_exit_loop = 'X' ).
          EXIT.
        ENDIF.
      ENDDO.
    (2) Call your function module in background task
    (3) Call transaction SM50 and search for the background process.
    (3) Choose from menu Program/Mode -> Program -> Debugging
    Now you the debugger should bring you right to your endless loop. Set lx_loop_exit = 'X' in the debugger and continue (F5 or F6).

  • HT204407 Find my Friends app signs me out even while running in background. How can I fix this?

    This happened before and after updating the OS to iOS6. If I open FmF, sign in, it won't stay signed in. I can't use the alerts because after a time, even if I leave the app running in the background, it signs me out. I can still be found by others but can't be informed when friends reach locations.
    My husband and I purchased the same phones at the same time, and his does not have the same problem. We sync using the same Apple ID and share apps. The only issue I can imagine would be a setting that differs between phones but have not been able to nail it down.

    Try creating a passcode for your device in settings. This means you need to enter the passcode before accessing anything on your device, this way you will stay signed into the FmF app even while running in the background and it will not require you to sign in every time you launch the app.  However, once you remove the passcode to your device in settings, the FmF app will again require you to sign in whenever you launch the app. I think this is for security reasons.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I have html5 audio continue to play in background in iOS7 from my flex mobile app

    I have mobile app I've developed in flash builder 4.6 (flex 4.12 sdk) and I have a stagewebview component which contains HTML5 audio (mp3 retrieved from my web server and streamed / played via the app)... I want to have the ios version of the app CONTINUE to play the mp3 / html5 audio when the user presses the home button on their iphone or opens another app... so that when multitasking, my audio continues to play (where theres no other NEW audio started, for instance).
    I have added the following to my manifest but it still doesnt do what Im after. I used this in another mobile app where I just play audio from the url directly in flash builder (i.e. NOT via webview component) -- but here it seems the webview suspends (Im guessing)...

    Is there a way around this so my audio continues to play? My test device is an iphone 4 running the latest version of ios7

    You can import audio files into Logic (as easy as drag and drop).  You can download these loops from the Internet from a variety of sources both free and paid.  Just do a Google search for those.
    Once you've imported the file into Logic Pro, right click on the audio region and scroll down to the "Convert" option about halfway down the menu.  The top option will be "Add to Apple Loops library" - click this, and it'll add the file into your Apple loops.
    It won't affect the other loops in the library.

    Hi All,
    I had this problem today myself, and was frustrated repeatedly by the '4002' error.
    I have literally just fixed the issue by doing the following steps:
    1: Go to the 'Store' tab and select 'Turn Off iTunes Match'
    2: Return to the 'Store' tab and select 'Update Genius'
    3: Wait for this to complete succesfully, the return to the 'Store' tab once more and select 'Turn On iTunes Match'.
    4: iTunes Match will now go through the motions and should succeed!
    I hope this helps

  • Stopwatch continues to Run in the background

    Took awhile for this to develop, but the stopwatch resets itself to zero now after just a half hour of running. That's what alerted me to the underlying problem. I've left the stopwatch running for several days in the past. I don't know if that's the trigger for this bug or not.
    Basically when i start the stopwatch it runs now for 30 mins, maybe an hour or two, but when I go back in to view it, flashes a VERY long number like "233:13:45" and then flashes to zero. While it should be showing a few hours of work, it shows this extremely long number and then zero's out.
    The second time it happened I had the idea of hitting "Lap" instead of "Start" to restart it. In the lap area I saw an extremely long number. Its clear the stopwatch system is continuing to run in the background, possibly from a previous date where I left it running, months ago. It seems to be doing this in the background, as the front end always ultimately goes to zero, even when it should still be running for that particular day. Clear as mud?
    Definitely a bug, and Im not sure how you'd duplicate it, but here would be my suggestion:
    1) Start the stopwatch and let it run for like 5 to 10 days without stopping.
    2) Navigate around the phone and use its other features in the meantime.
    3) Stop the stopwatch and reset it to zero, and restart it.
    4) Do the same thing. Run it for 5 days maybe.
    5) Stop it and reset it to zero.
    Eventually it may start zeroing out when it is supposed to be counting upwards. It may also flash a long number, prior to zeroing out. You may also be able to hit "LAP" when it incorrectly zero's out and you may then see the very long number. If so, you've duplicated the bug.

    i have the same problem... i have yet to find a way to duplicate the problem at will, but it manifests itself on a fairly frequent basis.
    a have been running laps at around 5-6 hours or so. the problem could occur on the 1st lap or on the 6th lap. all of the a sudden the display goes to all 0s, and if you hit lap or stop, the last lap will be over 66000 hours... which, the last time i checked was like over 7.5 years....
    while i may have been an early adopter, i have not had my iphone that long....
    a stopwatch should be one of the simplest applications to get right. i find it pretty lame that this bug appears.

  • Air 3.4 iOS Push Notification is not fired when app is not running and is not in background

    Hello,
    I'm making an Air iOS application which uses the iOS Push Notification from Air 3.4.
    All is working perfectly except when I receive notifications when the app is not running and is not in background (The app is killed).
    I suppose the RemoteNotificationEvent.NOTIFICATION must be dispatched when I receive a notification even if my app is not currently running or in background ?
    Do you have already get the same issue ? Do you know what can prevent the notification to be handled ?
    Thanks,
    Loïc

    issue has been fixed in the build available at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/air3-5.html.
    You would now have to attach listener to InvokeEvent. For cases, when application is killed, InvokeEventReason will be InvokeEventReason.NOTIFICATION. The notification payload can be accessed by the following code
    protected function onInvokeEvent(event:InvokeEvent):void
         trace("Invokehandler called .... \n");
         trace("reason: " + event.reason + "\n");
         if( event.reason == InvokeEventReason.NOTIFICATION)
                        var payload:Object = Object(event.arguments[0]);
              for (var i:String in payload)
                    trace("Key:value pair " + i + ":" + payload[i] + "\n");
              // TODO: DO THE NEEDFUL ON RECIEVING A NOTIFICATION HERE

    Hello Skittles1202
    It sounds like more of the storage of your iPad is full. Plug it into your computer and check in iTunes or on your iPad go to Settings > General > Usage and it will sort out in order of what is taking up the most space. Once you figure that out you can either delete what is not needed or import any photos that you may have to your computer. If you want to close out any application that you may have open previously, then double tap the home button and then swipe up on any app that you want to close
