Can apps still run even if closed through multi tasking?

I'm having a nightmare. I ungraded to 4.2 and safari started not loading properly after 15 mins use. No amount of clearing cache etc solved it. I got it exchanged and had 4.2 put on in the Apple store in case my version was corrupt. New phone had same issues. Another replacement... This one had a dud battery so in last ditch attempt before the long trek to the Apple store I put 4.2 on again. Battery improved but safari started not loading again- the blue bar only reaching part way so I constantly have to refresh. I keep all not active apps closed through multi tasking, also notifications off. I'm wondering if any apps can appear closed but still run- cuz asides from a bad app, I can't understand what might be causing this. Different phones, different 4.2, and always restored as a new phone. I'm at my wits end!

Thanks so much for your answer.
Yes, I am sliding to power off.

If an iPod touch 5th Gen is completely powered off, can apps still run down the battery?

Hello,
I own an iPod touch 5th generaion that is less than 2 months old, it worked great until about a week ago then the battery started depleting rapidly, usually fully within a 12 hour period even if I did not use the unit.
I started trying to figure out if there is anyting I cold do and learned a lot about apps left open draining the battery, etc. but making sure they were all closed did not help.
I then restored the unit to factory default, but this does not help.
The last thing I tried was to turn the unit completed off at night using the power switch by holding it until the unit turns off.
My question is, once I do this can any app use any power at all?
The reason I ask is because I had spoken with 3 Apple technicians and all 3 of them do not understand or can answer the question. They keep asking me if I know how to look in the taskbar to turn off the apps which once the power is off is not an available option.
I will greatly appreciate your response.
Mike.

Thanks so much for your answer.

How to tell embedded jinitator applet is still running when window closed

Hello, we are trying to accomplish the same thing that is mentioned in this post from Metalink. I've searched for a solution and hope someone here can help. Instead of restating the issue I think David Wilson does a good job of explaining what is needed. Can anyone please suggest a possible solution?

How to tell embedded jinitator applet is still running when window closed
Hi,
We run an oracle 10g forms application through 9iAS over an intranet. All users are running windows 2000 professional.
We run separate frame = true but I would like to switch to separate frame = false
With separate frame = true if the user clicks the outer windows "X" close button (forms mdi window) the user is prompted to save changes before the application ends.
BUT
when using separate frame = false
If the user clicks the upper window "X" button (no longer form mdi window but regular browser window) the window and application is abruptly closed.
I'm interested in using a onbeforeunload function to confirm if the user wants to close the window. This would be placed in the basejini.htm file. This could always ask if the user wants to exit or not. If they click OK then the window closes but if they click "Cancel" you are returned to the forms application exactly where you left. something like event.returnvalue="do you really want to exit?";
However if the user exited using the normal exit form method then the applet is already closed before the onbeforeunoad event fires and there is nothing to go back to and I want the window to close automatically. This is accomplished using close.html file in post forms trigger.
So what I want and what I think many may also want is the check if the embedded applet is still running and if so prompt the user to return to the application or continue to close. Of course If the applet is no longer running then just close because there is no reason confirm closing anymore.
Does anyone have a html/JavaScript solution that can be placed in the jinitiator.htm file? or similar?
Thank you
David

I don't know if this is exactly what you are after but you can add the following to the top of your basejini.htm file and it should prompt the user before exiting the IE window.

%HTMLbeforeForm%

Subject: Re : How to tell embedded jinitator applet is still running when window closed
Thank you for your reply and yes you did not understand my question fully.
Sorry if this is a long reply
I am able to close the browser window using information in notes 115905.1 and 201481.1, this is not the issue. We implemented this several years ago. It is workable for both separate frame = true or false.
It is most important to not allow the user to end their forms application by closing the windows browser, they must close using normal form exit commands.
What I want is to have separate frame = false, the big drawback to this option is the user can exit the application and bypass all forms code by pressing the windows "X" close button. This is why we need the code as just provided by Andrew Lenton above in this thread.
BUT Andrew's code will always prompt the user before closing the window and I do not want that. I want the user to be prompted only under scenario 2 listed below.
Here's the 2 case scenario for exiting the application.
1. If the user closes properly and uses exit form which fires all normal form triggers including post_form with it's call to close.html file.
All uncommitted changes are saved or rollback and the users session is ended normally both on the database and in the application server.
All browser windows will close, great all is good. And without Andrew's code the window will close but with Andrew's code the user will be prompted to close or not, if they select Cancel the window will remain but the applet has already ended so why prompt? ...This is what I want to avoid.
2. In the forms app. if the user clicks the windows "X" close button with uncommitted changes. The browser just closes the changes are rollback without prompting the user to save. The users sessions are now lost and still running in the database and application server until they are timed out.
If I use Andrew's code then the user will be prompted to continue to close or go back, if they click Cancel to go back then focus returns to the forms application and the user can continue to work. If the user clicks OK then the window closes and unfortunately their sessions are still lost until timed out.
So what I desire is to add to Andrew's code to check if the embedded applet is still running and prompt the user to close or not accordingly.
Something like:
Basejini.htm like
</HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function maximizeWindow()
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
function confirm(){
If(document.embeddedapplet.closed())
Win.opener = self;
win.close();
Else if
event.returnValue = "Closing Forms Application. OK to continue?";
</SCRIPT>
<BODY %HTMLbodyAttrs%, onload="maximizeWindow()", onbeforeunload="confirm()">
%HTMLbeforeForm%
I hope this explains my requirements.

I'm sorry this is not helpful at all.
Note 199928.1 is only an alert which does not stop the closing of the window and still displays as an alert if the user does close properly using exit form ... so why would you want to display the alert then?
This is exaclty what I do not want and why I want to determine if the applet is still running before displaying any kind of message.

Closing thread.
Thanks,

Hello,
I had the same issue last year - wanting to provide a warning on closing the browser, but only if the Forms session is still running. The approach I took is described below, see also the thread where I originally posted this at Closing brower window
Hi there,I've had a similar requirement - or rather, the two conflicting requirements: to warn when the browser is being closed, but for the app to be able to close the browser without a warning being fired.
To always provide a warning when someone (the user or the Forms app) tries to go to a different page (e.g. your close.htm), use Javascript like:
function confirmExit(){
if(appletRunning==true) {
msg="Closing this window or navigating to another page will end your SomeGreatApp session.";
window.event.returnValue=msg;
And make a call to confirmExit() in the onBeforeUnload event of your main page.
You'll notice I first check an 'appletRunning' variable before displaying the warning. This Javascript variable is set to true by my app when it starts up, using an embedded Javabean that calls out to Javascript. Once that variable is set to true, then the warning will be displayed if the user tries to shut the browser by clicking on the 'x' button, or to go to a different URL.
When my app is shutting down, it uses the same Javabean to set appletRunning back to false. It then navigates to a close.htm - which will be done without a warning being displayed.
See Re: How can a Javabean call Javascript function of the basejpi.html?? for example code on how to call Javascript from a bean embedded in your Forms app.
Hope these ideas help you out, it's worked for me (so far, anyway!!)

Deleted Chrome app still running in dock

I completely deleted Google Chrome from my Macbook Pro because it was apparently still running even after I quit and force-quit it multiple times. I deleted the app using AppCleaner so no Chrome files still exist (supposedly), but the app is still running in my Dock.
I've tried re-installing Chrome, but it just creates another Chrome application and the blank white page icon is still there. I deleted the second Chrome and this one still remains.
Any solutions?

The white icon suggests some Chrome files are still on your computer.
Reboot your machine after deleting the Chrome files. That's the way you finally purge your computer of applications you want to delete. Afterwards, perform a Spotlight search (Command-space) to search for other Chrome files you might have missed.
And post here with your results.

Close Mac Server App still run?

Hello, if I close my Mac Server application (I have a mac mini) will my websites still run? Or does the app HAVE to be open?

You do not have to have Server.app running all the time. Your websites and all the other services will keep running in the background.
In fact it is firstly best not to leave Server.app running all the time because it will after a period often get confused about the status of the services, and secondly this can be a security risk as it makes it available to anyone else. It is also for the same reason not necessary or desirable to even have a user logged in on the server. The services do not need this.

App shud run even if explorer crashes or restarted

i have written a app specifically for windows.i start the app using "javaw" and runs perfetly.now is there any method by which the app continues to run even after the explorer is restarted

You could run it as a service... there's a tool called jnt that works really well...

if you need it to display a UI to the user you can use the option in the services options to "interact with desktop"

Serial port is still open even after closing it explicitly

Hello,
I need to close a VI that is using a COM port and use the same port through some other program. But for some reason even after I stop the VI where I explicitly close the com port, I can not still use the hypterterminal to connect to the port. It says port is being used by some other program. What can be the reason? Any thought ?
Thanks,

Is the VISA close the last action you perform on the VISA reference?
If not, then your port will probably be opened again, so make sure it's the last one.
Also, I seem to remember reading something about some bug where VISA close wouldn't properly close the port. I would suggest you try searching for it and also make sure you have an updated version of VISA.

Safari disappeared, Windows are gone App still running

The Following is an example it happend previously related to other Tasks.
I try to test a Website from DW and hit the Preview-Button, this takes me to Safari. So far so good.
But all i can see is the Safari-Icon in the Dock running, it allows me to show how many windows i have currently open and all the other Dock-Icon-Rightclickoptions. I can see de Menu on top of my Screen and browse it, even use it! To create new Tabs or Windows, change from FC to Windowed and so on…
The strange thing thou is, that there is no Safari-Window at all visible!
When i go to MC it will not show up as a Fullscreen-App running nor it is visible on any other Desktop...
Shuting down the App solves the Problem

If GF has all the songs in her profile, I suspect the files are still on the PC.
Which is good!

EXCEL.EXE process is keep running even after closing all the handles

I am using Excel Report Instrument functions for creating excel application and sheet,workbook after reading/writing in to excel file am closing all the handles using CA_DiscardObjHandle (handle);     even after file is getting closed m checking it in TaskManager then one EXCEl.EXE process is keep running there,pls let me know how to deal with this....

Go to Solution.

A Kumar:
Have you tried running the example program excelreportdemo.prj that ships with CVI? It ends the excel process by discarding multiple handles, and it works even if you're editing a cell or have an Excel dialog open, etc. Try running this without modification and verify that the excel process is closed when you quit the CVI app.
Here's the Quit function from excelreportdemo. It checks for and closes handles for the worksheet, chart, workbook, and excel application.
int CVICALLBACK Quit (int panel, int control, int event,
        void *callbackData, int eventData1, int eventData2)
    switch (event)

Why are apps still running?

Why is it that even after I shut off the phone and turn it back on, there are still apps in the multitasking pane? Shouldn't all of the apps have closed when the phone was shut off?

Location apps will turn themselves back on when the phone is restarted.
