App crashes but remains active in background

I have an iPhone 5c with iOS 7.1.2, 16GB
The phone is less than 6 months old and I have 2.25 GB free still.
I have problems with one app, Astro Gold version 4.1.7, but no one else I know who has the app has the same problem.
Most of the app functions work fine.
However, there is one function where the app is used to calculate an event report over a chosen period of time (1 month, 6 months, 1 year, etc.)
The report is generated without a problem.
However, if I finger scroll too fast up and down the report, it crashes.  If I leave the report on the screen too long, it crashes.
Yet when I double click the home key, it shows the app is still open, and back to the screen where you select the report you wish to run.
It is almost like I am overtaxing the RAM.  But the same thing occurs if I have no other apps open, or even after I just reboot the iPhone
Under Accessibility options just about everything is off, but I tried turning on Reduce Motion to see if that would help (it doesn't).
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app.  I have updated it each time a new update is available.
I've talked to the app's programmer, and he is not aware of other users with the same problem, and my colleagues who have the app do not have this issue.
Can anyone give me a direction of where to start looking for a solution?
I have no problem with any other app.

Hi - having the same problem with PSE process not ending on exit. Have you had any luck in resolving the issue?
Any advice would be appreciated. TIA

    PSE remains active in background after exit. How can I stop the program completely?
    Is there any command line option to force PSE to stop completely after exiting the GUI?
    Opening the Windows Task Manager and killing the PSE process is not a solution!
    (Context: I want to start PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe from another program with an image filename as command line argument. This other program waits in background until PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe has finished and pops up again after that. Since PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe continues to run silently in background, the other program will never come back.)

  • Some apps crash but others work - HD has been repaired

    Hi, I had error that HD needed to be repaired when I ran disk check in disk utility. I inserted the start up disk and repaired the HD. I then ran another check in disk utility and HD was repaired. Unfortunately, I still have some apps that will not run such as iTunes and iPhoto. Other apps like Firefox and Word run just fine. When I click on iTunes or iPhoto it bounces a few times then nothing. I have looked at the console output and it says that the program has crashed. I then go to view the files in the crash reported but it is empty. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to repair this or do the programs need to be reinstalled. Thank you!

    Hi messnerm001, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    They may need replacing, fixing the HD may or may not fox files, it just repairs where the OS thinks the files are and such.
    Try this first, Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Reboot.
    If the above fails, then it appears to be time for a relatively painless Archive & Install, which gives you a new/old OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space and no Disk corruption, and is relatively quick & painless...

    Just be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings.

  • Apps crashing, but fix with iTunes...

    Okay, I am not sure what is going on, but here it is exactly...
    I download an app through the Appstore on the iPhone itself... after loading and then installing, it shows up fine on the screen, so I launch the App, it shows the splash screen for a split second then goes back to the home screen.
    Will do it for every app, but when I connect it to the computer. I open iTunes, hit Store-Deauthorize Computer, then I sync it, go back up to Store-Authorize Computer, then I sync again with iTunes, the apps show up(sometimes in iTunes, I sometimes I have "Transfer Purchases," then I go back to the phone, launch the apps that were crashing, and they work perfectly.
    This isn't horrible, but it is when you download an app, and have to do this with iTunes every single time.
    Anyone know what I can do?
    I have tried resetting the settings in the Settings Menu on the iPhone, I have rebooted, resynced, everything. The apps from the App Store will only work upon deauthorizing and reauthorizing.
    Thanks!

    Just check to see in iTunes, if when the phone is connected that in the applications menu , sync applications and sync all are selected. These can often reset themselves after an update and restore.

  • "APP Crash", but no "Continue Session" option on next start-up - Question

    This happened (again) where 3.0 crashes with no "Continue Session" option when re-starting.  Is there a place to locate a recovery file and re-start with a continuance of that session?
    I have to say it, but AA 3.0 is the WORST most prone to crash audio program I have ever used.  This has happened so many times where I have lost crucial progress on a project.....If a program is such that you have to save your work every two minutes to feel safe, that is NOT good. , As soon as I can, I am going for Pro Tools...there must be a reason it is the industry standard.

    Sounds like some serious problems... Have you tried the Audition 3.0.1 update ?
    I'm not sure where that recovery session file would be, but it would probably be something like %userprofile%\appdata\local\adobe\audition 3.0 or in some sub folder...
    What are your system specs (32 or 64 bit OS, RAM, CPU, etc.)?
    If you use any 3rd party effects then give a list of the ones you have installed and the ones you use most often...  Most of the time when people have trouble like you,  it turns out to be something like a VST effect or sometimes even a mouse driver (wouldn't have believed it myself if I didn't see it)...  But I'm sure someone can help you out if you just give a little more information.

  • Only Apple Apps Crash w/ iOS4

    Ocassionaly my 3rd party apps crash, but that's normal. But ever since I've upgraded to iOS4 on my 2nd Gen 8GB iPod Touch, all of the Apple apps (Safari, Maps, App Store, Mail, etc.) crash way too often. Any good fix? Any way to report this to Apple?

    I have an IPOD third gen - 8GB since updating to ios4, Safari regularly crashes. Also is there a lite version of ios4 as it takes up over 2GB? I would also like to contact apple regarding this.

  • Agentry App crashes on Device but not in the ATE Testenvirement

    Hello,
    we make a app which works fine in the ATE Testenvirement and also in a iPhone but our main Plattform is the The WIndows Mobile Pocket PC.
    We use a Motorola MC65 with Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional.
    On the Motorola the app crashes in a definite transaction when we close the transaction screen.
    Workflow is this: we open a detail screen with a listview -> with double click we pick a object from a collection and  starts the transaction -> close the transaction screen -> now a rule decide what will happen (you can see the rule in the picture) -> but the app crashs before something happens.
    Could we debug the client or could we create some loggings on the device? We dont know how we could find out why the app crashes. (as information: if the agentry client crashes on this point, we could not end the task from the agentry client with the task manager, we have to restart the Motorola client)
    Thanx,
    André

    Hallo,
    now we fixed the problem.
    As i told you we start the transaction screen from the detail screen and after ending the gtransaction the screen did not close and the client did not respond anymore.
    We fixed the Problem in this way that we do a navigationstep after the transaction step. In this we make the decision which screen should be shown as the next screen an open it. Thats all. In all other Client beside the WinCE Client the Transactionscreen closed and we could see the last detail screen. But on the  WinCE Client we nedd the navigation step.
    I dont know if this is a bug from the WinCE Agentry Client Version 6.1.4.54024 but this workarpund was the solution for us.
    @Jason: we breaking the rule down to separate subrules so the debugging in much better but we loose the reference to the object we used in the main rule, so we keep the active object refernce in a temp attribut at the main object and  get the active object with this id in the subrules

  • Quit program but it remain Active. How?

    I have quit Photoshop CS but I notice it is Active in the Activity Monitor and it's taking up 100% of a CPU ( Ihave a 4 core Mac Pro). I know I can Force Quit it and then it is no longer active at all, but I'm curious how/why an app that was quit can remain Active and active at such a high level. It even remains active through a log-out. It is only using 252 KB of Real memory but 100% of a CPU....

    #Use Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox.<br><br>
    #Find firefox.exe in the list and then right click it.<br><br>
    #Choose Send To, then Desktop (Create Shortcut).
    Incidentally, you should consider updating '''Microsoft Silverlight'''. The version you have installed at the moment is a security risk. Update via the Windows Update site. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2526954

  • Updated to ios 6 and now when i go to the app store and try to check out my purchased it try to load the information but after about 20-25 seconds nothing loads and the app crashes. Im not sure if its because i have at least 600 apps in the cloud.

    Well, my two-month-old MBP has no qualms about booting from a no-name external USB HD I put together...
    Given that is is a common point of failure, I would imagine a large Apple Store should keep a stock of HD's on hand.
    Now since you're a bit desperate and the genie pops up til Saturday and you seem to be the enterprising kind, let's try an experiment: if you have room enough in the external HD and assuming it isn't a Time Machine volume, why don't you plug it in, stick the Install CD and see if the installer lets you select the external drive as the install target. If you can install Leopard on it, on top of the backup without reformatting, and the Mac can boot from the drive afterwards, at least you would have some functionality restored and would be able to pull your stuff from the internal HD. Apple says booting from USB drives is not supported but that does not equate to not possible; some brands do work. Risks? Always. You can always lose your backup. Like I said, a challenge for an enterprising gal....
    Next time around, consider having a bootable external clone at hand for rainy days. I keep three myself...
    P.S. Since I'll be in the Dallas-FW area in late June, I can volunteer with the confetti....

  • Adobe Air app crashes on iPad2 but not iPad3 on iOS 8.1

    I have an app built with Flash Builder 4.7 using Adobe Air (version 15.0.0.356). The app runs some interactive animations (.swc files) and after running for a while on iPad2 the app crashes (can reproduce crash in same scene exactly 5 seconds into animation every time) but runs perfectly fine on the iPad3 both using iOS 8.1. Is this a fixable memory issue? an sdk problem?

    want to know how to add pictures to address book that DO NOT appear as fullscreen images on the iPhone but remain as icons with the iPhone background visible (see attached image). for some reason, all new contacts added through Mountain Lion appear as fullscreen caller ID images.

    This would be better addressed in the iPhone forum, I would post there as well.

    My problem started after installing "smartsync app" which is supposed to sync my phone with the profilepage photos of my friends in facebook. All my apps crashed after using them for awhile.While using my apps, they will black out after a little while and the phone returns to the starting page. I have removed the smartsync app but my phone still behaves the same way. At the same time the dates that accompany my messages changed to another language. How can these be rectified?

    Eek.  Sounds like something in the app caused some serious software issues.  You can try a hard reset, but I'd imagine you're probably going to have to do an iTunes restore to get it running right again.

  • I have unlocked my iPhone 3G with Vodafone via iTunes, but now the downloaded apps crash immediately when opened. I've tried a Restore, but this didn't help. I've also tried removing all apps and re-installing them, but they still don't work. Any ideas?

    yep, unfortunately can't reset without the passcode either.
    With regards to doing a restore, do you mean:
    open itunes on my computer
    click on my device on the left
    go to the device summary
    click restore
    it then asks if i want to back up before i restore (to which i say no)
    then it asks me if i'm sure I want to restore to factory settings and that all of me media and data will be erased and replaced with the newest version ( to which I say yes)
    then it takes about 90 mins to do this but when I look at my phone, everything is exactly the same.
    Am I missing something? Obviously I'm technologically challenged, but I HAVE to get to the bottom of this!
