What happened? 
I do not have advanced task killer.
Are you using a 3rd party laucher like Launcher Pro or ADW?  It kind of sound like the launcher closed and you was looking at the stock launcher that didnt have the same icons lauout, this would be my first guess...
And as for the ATK have you made sure to add the needed apps and system apps to the ignore list of the Task Killer to avoid any false closing of required apps?

  • SWING app just vanishes on win xp

    Hi running out of ideas on this one, we have a swing app running under 1.4.2, and on one of our testers machines in India, he is reporting that the app just "vanishes". I am unable to reproduce the problem here on my install and in my IDE environment. It doesn't always happen in the same place or doing the same action in the app. I added a security Manager to monitor for system exits incase a third party lib was calling System.exit. however when looking at the Logs the System exit routine is not called. (it is when I do a normal app shutdown, so that at least is working). Does anyone have any pointers on how I can trap this, or find out more info on what is occurring.
    the xp machine has 1 gig of memory and 2.6 ghz processor.
    Any pointers gratefully received.

    The files are created in the running directory.I have no other files in the running directory, other than the redirected stdout and stderr, files and in there, is nothing that I wouldn't normally expect. One possibility I have thought of is that the JVM isn't actually crashing, that an external process is ending it, similar running an app in a console and hitting ctrl[c] (on windows, to kill the process). I have read about shutdown hooks, and was wondering if these may help. Does a shutdown hook always get called, even if I were to end/kill a process say from (Task manager or process manager) any one have any experience of shutdown hooks? - thanks for responses so far though.

    Homesharing has issues that have not been fixed over several versions of itunes and ios.
    Only kind of fix is go back through your library and retag it.

    Did you try to reset your iPod?  The description of what yu did was not clear.  To reset:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Next would be to restore the iPod from backup and if problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Just updated to newest version ios now can't force my apps to close. everything I open stays open. Updated all the apps still no help.

    Headline says it all. Other than this problem everything working pretty well. Thanks

    Double tap the Home button, then swipe upwards on the App Preview (not the App Icon). Tap the Home button again to return to normal screen.

  • IPhone upgrade wiped out all purchased apps...help!!

    hi, I just downloaded and installed the new IOS to my iPhone. The download has wiped all of my purchased apps. I've managed to get one or two of them back, but the most expensive one, which I purchased outside of the UK, is nowhere to be found. It's not on my purchased apps section in iTunes, and when I signed in it said something about the account only being valid for the UK. Doesn't that seem a little draconian to be an excuse to delete the apps I purchased in Australia?
    Anyone got any advice on how to get it back?
    Cheers

    did you find a solution to this? same thing happened to me last night. a couple of apps are there. everything else is gone (free and paid)...sickening. I'm not a techie at all...when first plugged in my phone the screens showed all apps but only like a shadow... but only those two apps were "there"...so when it did the "backup" it just grabbed those two. now thats all I have. Does the app store have a history of purchases/downloads? Having trouble with all  apple "helps" ...I mistakenly always thought "sinc" meant that it was backing up my phone data to my computer. NOW I have ICloud , but NOW I have pretty much nothing left on the phone to be backed up. Oh yeah, it's still a phone. 

  • I am trying to buy a video and it says that i have to delete  some of my photos when do do not have any and i deleted all my apps just i have i more app that i did not delete

    please help me thank you

    It really makes it tough to troubleshoot when there is no error message. So what I'm saying is - I am sort of at a loss. Anyway, try this - close all apps on your iPad, reboot the iPad and then try again.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I backedup my iphone but it didn't transfered all the apps!!help...

    hello..i backed up my apps of iphone 5 previously and itunes worked properly..but later i deleted the backup files and wanted to backup my apps again,,but it just backed up only a few apps..maximum apps was not backed up..i am a windows user..please help me..

    Apps are never part of an iPhone backup, because they are already on your computer. When you sync your phone with your computer any apps that were downloaded directly to the iPhone are copied to your computer. Apps you purchased on your computer are already there, of course. If you have restored your phone the first time you sync it the apps will be restored. You can always redownload apps for free, but you should normally not have to do this. On the phone open the App Store, tap on Updates, then Purchased, then Not on this phone.

  • All my bookmarks just vanished--can only find some of them from internet explorer--i want them back please

    after a restart from being totally shut down (to save power) i have been unable to retrieve ANY of my bookmarks. I was only able to view some from a previous date by opening up internet explorer. All of my recently added favorites are lost somewhere in cyberspace. i have been using Firefox as my browser for quite some time now and definitely prefer it over IE. This is the first time i've had any real issues with firefox. Tried one of the suggestions (task manager, end firefox.exe process.....) but nothing has worked. Rebooting doesn't help either. I really want my favorites back -- trying to totally repopulate my list of favorites will take FOREVER!!!!!!! Plus, my memory probably won't remember what i've probably forgotten!

  • I just updated to iSO 5 and then I synced my itouch and now all my apps and games are gone! What do I do to get them back?

    hey I would really appreciate it if you could help? I just cant believe all my apps just went poof after I synced my itouch on itunes.
    They are no where to be found? what do I do? Im really freaked out because i dont want to have to buy them all again.

    If for some reaon you failed to transfer them to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload them:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • My apps have vanished

    I've just upgraded to a 4s but I've not sync'd my other phone for ages (laptop was dodgy for ages).  Now that I've had my laptop fixed, I started syncing my old iphone today in preparation for sorting my new iphone.
    All my apps have vanished!  I don't know where, and I don't know how to get them back.  Everything has now transferred over to my new iphone, except all these apps.
    Can anyone tell me what's happened? Is it reversible?
    Thanks.

    If you synced with a different computer than the one the devices was setup on it would have wiped it and resynced to what was in that library. You can redownload your apps from the iTunes store.
    Make sure you are signed into iTunes with the Apple ID the purchases were ,made with and that the computer is autorized.
    Computer: iTunes Store > Purchased (in the Quick Links section on the right) > Apps
    Phone: Open App Store app > Updates Purchased

  • Does anyone have any idea why Facebook is lagging on my ipad?  I have closed out all open apps and nothing changes.

    Does anyone have any idea why Facebook on my ipad is lagging badly, I have closed down all other apps and nothing helps.

    As long as your pad isn't doing other things,( and you have already shut off everything else..) then the issue is in the connection from you to whoever you are talking to.  How good is your wifi speed?  And the person at the other end.  There are a lot of transfers of the signal from you to them, and you are sort of at the mercy of all the spots in between. 
    Do a speedtest to test your speed, and maybe give the call a try from a different place, like a Starbucks ( as long as their connection is not throttled)
