can you see which apps are open and/or running (like you can on an android phone by going to settings>applications>running services)?

Hi wjosten,
thank you for the help. I should have said I had a iphone 3. A friend has the same phone and she showed me how she can see what web pages are open when she double taps the home button. Mine is set to bring up favourites when I double tap (chosen from settings>general>home button).. BUT my choices are only HOME; SEARCH; PHONE FAVORITES; CAMERA or IPOD. I changed my choice to HOME but that just defeats the purpose as when I am at the home page and double tap nothing happens. Am I making sense?

How do you determine which apps are paid and which are free

I am trying to perform some cleaning of my iPhone and want to delete some apps. I know which ones to delete, and which ones to save, but never want to delete an app that I have paid for.
How can I tell, either on the phone itself, or within iTunes, which apps were paid for, and which were free? They all show a purchased date in "get info" within iTunes, even apps that were free. I know some apps that I certainly paid .99 for, and some that I have paid much more than that. I would never want to delete those. How can I tell the difference?

Ok, keep in mind, this is iTunes app store, not Desktop App Store, just so we are on the same page. I have a purchase history that looks like this:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/340087/drops/01.02.12/this-f0-154400.png
If I go to the app Store, locate the exact app in question, this is what I get:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/340087/drops/01.02.12/ss-2012.01.02-3.45.23.PM-57-154549 .png
Compare that to an app I did made a purchase to, Geocacging, and it is different. As you can see, it tells me that I can download it again, for free, and this is in no way a free app, quite expensive compared to most 99 cent apps:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/340087/drops/01.02.12/ss-2012.01.02-3.46.56.PM-c4-154716 .png
I am logged into lCloud as far as I know. Here is a screen shot from system prefs:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/340087/drops/01.02.12/ss-2012.01.02-3.49.06.PM-7d-154932 .png
It says "sign out" which tells me I am logged in.
I don't have an app within the apps section of itunes of the apps section of my phone when connectted by wireless of by usb cable.
So unles I am completely mising your instructions, I believe this to be on Apple's end, and they are not recognixing that I have already downloaded this app and paid for it. I am about to just download and pay for it again, it is only 3.99, so not a big deal, however, if this was a 100.00 GPA app or smilar, I would be a little upset.
Thanks for all your help.

How to see which files are open on shares

Im fairly new to OS X Server. Am running OS X Server 10.6.8
How can i see files that are open through AFP or SMB? I've tried the command lsof but that doesnt seem to show open files through network.

Try smbstatus.
To pin down exactly which files are locked for use, try:
smbstatus | grep -i deny_write
For AFP, I'm not sure exactly how it's done -- there isn't an afpstatus command, so I'm a bit in the dark. However, you could probably use a combination of lsof and grep to find any objects of type REG and owned by applefile.
Maybe this:
sudo lsof | grep -i "^applefile" | grep REG
But that will return everything in use by the AppleFile service. From there, though, one may need to be familiar with what shares are on the system to further deduce what's open. For example, I get 10 lines returned, but only one of them contains a known share name (/Users/username/path/to/file), the rest are system directories (/System, /private, /usr, /Library and the like).
Hope this helps a bit.

How can I tell which apps are using data

Perhaps this is a suggestion, just in case someone who is in a position to note this at Apple (not likely?) might read it.
How about an app included in the OS that allows users to track which apps are transmitting and receiving data through cellular data and/or wireless.
I keep getting charged by AT&T (it took restraint to not type a bunch of explatives before AT&T) for escessive data usage, even though I'm in wifi 90%+ of each day, and purposely restrict using it when not in wifi. Seriously, I don't now how I could use it less barring not using it at all, and I still get charged for data. I have no idea how to control this since I cannot tell which, if any, apps are transmitting data in the background, or if that's even possible.
Seriously annoyed at getting charged extra when the 'service' they provide barely works for me the miniscule amount of times I try to use it.

This is a user to user forum.

You could also try searching for an app that tracks data usage

Hi, I set up my new iPhone S4 with iclouds. So the data of my old S3 should move to the S4. However, some applications could not be loaded on the S04. Now some apps are loaded and others not . How can I progress?

Thanks. I can change the forwarding settings in Gmail to be either POP or IMAP. That is quite simple. I just looked at those settings on the Gmail server and, to my surprise, both are enabled. In order for outlook client on my computer to receive IMAP emails I have to change the email account settings in my current outlook from POP to IMAP. I don't need to be using the Exchange version of Outlook to receive IMAP. I guess I'll do a little research tomorrow on Exchange so i can figure out what, if anything, it might do for me.
I glanced at the link you sent me and it looks like it might be very helpful - another project for tomorrow.
BTW: I hit "This Solved my Question" by accident. I meant only to "like' your response so you would get some benefit from the help you've given me so far. I hope I haven't discouraged others from taking a shot at helping me. I suspect there is more than one way to approach this and, as you know, my problem isn't really solved until I have what I need all set up and running smoothly.

i have recently purchased a macbook pro and i gave my macbook to my wife, how can she recover the apps i bought and paid for so she can use the Pages, Numbers and Keynote

If you bought/paid for them in the Mac App Store, you would just need to sign in to the MAS with the Apple ID you used to purchase them, go to purchases, and click install.
As for the limited licensing that Bordy brought up, the TOS for the MAS states:
"Apps from the Mac App Store may be used on any Macs that you own or control for your personal use."
If you installed them from an iWork disc, just pop the disc back in and reinstall.

How do you tell which files are open in bridge cs5?

In adobe bridge for CS2, open files in Photoshop show an icon in the lower right corner of the bridge thumnail. This is really helpful in sorting if you have a lot of files open. I can't figure out how to tell in bridge CS5 which files are open in photoshop. Is there a menu option that controls this??

Thanks for the reply. This is a useful feature but not quite what I need.
I am sorting through 2000 wedding photos. I have maybe 10 versions of the same shot open at a time. I edit, save, and close 2-3 of them. In CS2, I would go back to bridge and I could see the 7 files still open. I could quickly highlight and delete them. I'm trying to find a way to do something similar in CS5 bridge. Right now, I take the ones I'm going to delete and stack them all. But when I go back to bridge to delete them, I have to look at file numbers to see which ones are in the stack that I want to delete. This really slows my work flow. Any suggestions? Can I delete them directly from Photoshop?

How can i see which items are taking up the most disk space

I have a Titanium PowerBook G4 with a 20GB hard drive. I'm currently using 15GB. I have tried searching through my hard drive to see which programs are taking up the most space. When I add up the totals of the various folders, etc., it's not 15GB worth. I feel like some items must be nested somehow, making them difficult to find. Is there some way to search your computer by size of items? I know that opening the hard drive and clicking on the size tab will sort things according to size. However, the folders don't show their size unless you click on them individually. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

While viewing a Finder window go to View>Show View Options, put a check in the box for 'Calculate All Sizes'. This is a setting you don't normally want to have turned on as it slows down the refresh when you switch windows, so you might want to remove the check once you identify the disk hogs.
BTW- You can free up a lot of disk space & RAM if you remove any fonts that you & the OS don't really need. You may also have a great deal of space taken up by unnecessary printer drivers, not to mention the plethora of ReadMes & other 'goodies' that get added when you install software.

How can I see which devices are registered for automatic download (synching) from iCloud?

Hello!
I have a numerous of apple devices and would like to know how I see if they are ALL regisitered to my icloud.

Devices are associated with an Apple ID whenever you do one of three things: turn on iTunes Match; turn on Automatic Downloads (in Settings>iTunes & App Stores on an iOS device, and in iTunes Preferences>Store on a computer; or download previously purchased content from the iTunes or App stores. If you do any of these on your other devices, they will become associated with the Apple ID they are sign into at the time.
Keep in mind that once associated with an ID, they cannot be associated with a different ID for 90 days. You can associate up to 10 devices with an ID, 5 of which can be computers.

How can i see which apps in my ipad consume more battery power

I noticed lately the power consumption on my ipad 3 has gone considerably up. A full charge lasts me about 8 hrs and to chrge it upm(through the mains), it takes 4hrs +. I downloaded many apps lately and suspect one of them may be power hungry.Is there a good App that allows me to establish which app(s) eat up the power on my Ipad 3 & equally allow me to terminate unnecessary processes?
Any suggestions folks?

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

HT1420 How can I see which computers are currently authorised so I can decide which to reauthorise?

How can I see a list of devices which are currently authorised for itunes sharing?

You can't see a list of which computers that your account is authorised on, you can only see how many.
I'm not aware of anywhere that you can see how many computers or devices that you are currently using home sharing on - for you to be able to home share from your computer your account must be authorised on it, so you can homeshare from at most 5 computers.

Can I select which Apps to download and will the service charge reflect this choice?

I will not want to use all the Apps and I want to pay less for as I will use less.

Not that I'm aware of.
Adobe would probably says that the Cloud is very flexible now, the apps are all there if you ever do want to use them (they hope you'll try them all eventually), and the entire Cloud costs each member less than the price of a cup of coffee per day.
I cannot see them introducing per-app bundle pricing to the Cloud (other than the current single app membership). The price differentials between each bundle would hardly be worth it.
You could always float the idea in the Cloud feedback forums to gauge interest among other Adobe users

Also, feel free to post a feature request to Adobe (but don't expect a personal reply)
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
I think the Cloud is here to stay in its current form. They'll just keep selectively adding more apps and services to make it more and more appealing.

Can you see which apps are open and/or running like you can on an android phone by going to settings applications running services?
