Apps won't move out of Launchpad folders anymore

This used to work but now it's stopped and restarting has not fixed it.
If I hold down ALT to get all the apps doing the little wiggle, I cannot move an app out of a folder anymore. It will allow me to click it and drag it but trying to drop it back into the main Launchpad area has no effect. So now I'm stuck with Apps in the folders I have but I really want to move some of them around !
Anyone else have this problem ?

yes, and when you add them all back, one at a time, you wind up moving them all around in LauchisBadAgainForMe. What's worse, for inexplicable reason, new panels are created based on the apps. For example, apple apps go direct to panel 1, Adobe apps go to panel 2, as if to say "hey adobe, we are hiding u from the main page!"
I'm deleting the LaunchBad icon again. Oh well, at least it's free.

Some apps won't time out

I've noticed a few apps, when left on after the iPad is put aside, keep running and running down the battery even though my Auto-Lock is set for 2 minutes. Anyone else experience this and is there a fix (aside from remembering to shut down the app in the first place)?

Since Tiger, Mail always starts with a window open even if the Hide box is checked.
but why?
I read somewhere that Steve Jobs wanted Mail to always start with a window open, so it is unlikely to be fixed soon..

App won't open on my iPhone 4 anymore, just a spinning circle?

I Have been using the cloud app on my phone, but have been unable to open in the last few times, just get the spinning circle. Coincidentally this started happening after the free upgrade from 5 to 25 gb. Any suggestions?

AGCmommy,
Let's keep working on this together. What application are you trying to open up? Have you tried to go to your iTunes/Application store and see if there are any updates? If you have done all of these I suggest that you press and hold the application and delete the application. When you have done that you can redownload the application and not lose any information.

Honeycomb some time navigating in tabs does not work. if i select tab a from tab b, the header changes but not the page. It does if i move out of app and return

using samsung p6200.
If i open multiple tabs (say more than 14) so say ifi am on 14 tab and back to 12th then it will switch properly but if i go back to first tab it wont show the webpage. some tabs will show and some wont. sometime the tab will show a type of progressive image of tab which wont get more clear. But tab switches if i move out of application and return. example i am not tab 14 say gizmodo.com and i return to tab 2 say wikipedia then it wont change the page. if i go to task manager and return back to firefox then it will show the page.

I agree that it cant be as smooth but this issue is replicable in much less tabs as well.. around 4. Also i dont see any reason not to open 14 tabs as when i run Ubuntu on sam tablet parallel to Android, i can open tabs in firefox in Ubuntu. I understand the architecture difference of green bot and ubuntu for which i hate android. i wanted to hilight that firefox is working fine but somewhere it is unable to fetch data from its cache, while when OS reloads the app from background to foreground, the cache is retrieved.

My Macbook Pro's iTunes App was logged in as someone else. I logged out of that account and logged into mine, but I found that the app still shows all of the previous account's content. None of my apps, songs, or movies are there!

MacBook Pro / Mozilla Firefox / Netflix / Silverlight Update solved - DON'T DWNLOAD FROM NETFLIX
I solved this problem tonight. I have a MacBook Pro with 10.5.8. I know, it's old. But I love my Netflix and I recently noticed that Firefox plays Netflix much better. Then I suddenly got this message that I needed to download the latest Silverlight - it only takes 30 seconds! - WRONG. However, after much searching, I finally did the steps in order and it worked.
This was after repeatedly downloading Silverlight from the Netflix site without success. So here's what I did:
1. Went to http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx
2. Followed the directions. I felt like such an idiot for not doing it right before.
3. Go to your hard drive and search for "Silverlight" to locate ANY existing Silverlight files: .dmg, etc.
[also check your Libary/ Internet Plug-ins, but the above search is faster]
4. Drag it all to the trash and empty it.
5. Go back to the Get Silverlight page and click on the Install on that page, not the Netflix site.
6. Note the steps for Safari or Mozilla Firefox - I wanted Firefox, so I follwed those instructions.
7. Once it's installed, close all the browsers and Restart that bad boy. Right away.
8. Open a browser, go to Netflix and proceed to joyfully rot your brain with Netflix content. Yay!

The round button that allows me to get out of an app or to move or delete apps has stopped working. Once I am in an app the only way to get out of the app is to power off my ipod completely. Help!

HT3819 When I sync my iPod some of my purchases from iTunes transfer, but some do not. When I try to drag the songs onto the iPod icon it shows the 'crossed out' symbol and won't move them.

When I sync my iPod some of my purchases from iTunes transfer, but some do not. When I try to drag the songs onto the iPod icon it shows the 'crossed out' symbol and won't move them. I've tried synching from multiple computers that are all connected with home sharing but it still didn't do the trick.

Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.

Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.

In app purchase for the Simpsons tapped out didn't go through and now app won't open

I bought donuts on the Simpsons tapped out app n it went to iTunes and I did in app purchase, and now my app won't open and it seems like my phone is trying to download it keeps asking me for my apple password when app shuts down, I tries to delete app and reload it, it doesn't help I also retuned phone to default setting still nothing, i can go on my other devices and load app but it doesn't show my purchase, did this happen to anyone else and did u find an answer to fixing this problem????? Please Help!!!!!

I had this same exact thing happen. The problem seemed to occur when I tried to do an in-app purchase and my iTunes Apple ID needed payment verification. Tapped Out triggered the iOS to open the verification part of the App Store. After verification iOS asked if I wanted to proceed with the purchase. I hit "ok". The App Store was trying to handle the in app purchase like it was a regular app purchase. When I went back into Tapped Out, I was met with an error message stating that the purchase has been made, and it was waiting for download. I also couldn't initiate any more in app purchases. When I quit and relaunched Tapped Out, it flashed the loading screen and then quickly crashed. Followed by a prompt for my Apple ID password.
The disconnect here is somewhere in the coding from Tapped Out to the iOS. Tapped Out is asking for authorization on a in app purchase and the iOS is trying to initiate a regular app purchase.
I have tried erasing and reinstalling Tapped Out. I have tried signing out of my iTunes account and launching Tapped Out. I have tried "Resetting All Settings" from the general setting panel in iOS, which usually fixes everything... Nothing is working though.
I was able to download Tapped Out on a different iOS device (all running 7.0.4 btw) and was able to run it, sign in with my Tapped Out login and Apple ID. I was even able to initiate the in app purchase fully. So this tells me that the bug here is buried deep in the preference of iOS 7 on my original device, not the Tapped Out account or my iTunes Apple ID.
The sure fire answer to solve this is to do a clean erase and restore of the device. I really don't want to do that though because it will get rid of my current camera roll and my text history. Plus I'll have to resync all my music and that takes a while. I'm hoping the bug just times out and the app refreshes itself... But I'm doubtful of that. I think we are the unintentional collateral damage from some sloppy coding on EA's part. A clean erase and install might be the only answer. Hopefully it will rectify itself though...

The Calendar app won't show March 2013 in 'Month' view. Kicks me out. What do I do?

Every time I try to look at March in 'month' view of the Calendar App, it throws me out. Can view March appointments in list view, day, week and year view, but not month view. Any ideas? month view is my favourite and its getting annoying!

debrak1,
Hopefully, Why does the month March 2013 not show...: Apple Support Communities, and Why can I NOT select March 2013 Month...: Apple Support Communities will provide you with a solution for that problem.

GMail - iPhone cleared out inbox / other folders & won't receive new mail.

My GMail has been working fine on my iPhone, but yesterday the iPhone cleared out all my folders without asking and will no longer receive any emails. But I can still send messages, and my GMail account via the web browser is still intact and receiving new mail. My iPhone is definitely online. Why? Help!

Mine is working fine. Try deleting the Gmail account from the iPhone, then re-adding it.

IPad app won't download and can't delete it

An iPad app I have previously installed had an update which I went to install as usual. The download is stalled on "waiting" and won't progress. I can't delete the app because when I hold it down it wiggles but the "delete x" won't show. The App Store keeps telling me there's an update but the app just won't move on from waiting.

Have you tried a reboot? Press and hold the home and power buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple. Release the buttons and let the ipad restart. Many times this clears out whatever is hanging the app.
