Closing an iPad app in 7.0.4

I updated my iPad to ios 7.0.4 yesterday. Previously, one could double-tap the button at the bottom, and then hold a finger on the resulting icons, and get a little X to close the application. I had been tolD (at the PeachMac store where I bought it) that this would save power.
Now, a double-tap brings up a scrolling window with all of the open applications. This option doesn't seem to be available anymore. Is it gone? Or is there another way to access it?
(I'm very disappointed that Apple seems to be following the Microsoft practice of changing the user interface through which one operates the system. Regardless of what arguments might be made for how some interface other than a steering wheel, accellerator pedal and brake may be for controlling a car, this has the virtue that once one learns how to do it effectively, one can continue to drive more or less forever. I would love to put the people behind these decisions in a world in which, every time they picked up their car after getting the oil changed, the steering wheel was gone, and a new "user interface" suddenly replaced it, with no explanation. It would be especially satisfying if they were late for an important appointment, and had to sit in the parkiing lot in frustration wondering how to start the car.)
Thanks in advance.

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.

My iPad mini won't update my apps. I have closed all open apps, done multiple resets but I show 24 updates and when I hit the update, the screen is blank.

My iPad mini won't update my apps. I have closed all open apps and done multiple resets. I hit update and the screen is blank, even though the bubble shows 14 to update.

If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.

TS3274 My iPad keeps closing out of apps ...

My iPad keeps closing out of apps, wouldnt let me delete email..is my memory too full.

Did you try either of these?
Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. 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 or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the 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 - let go of the buttons.
What do you mean it wouldn't let you delete your mail? Is the mail app crashing? You can swipe across the email in the preview window in order to delete it. You do not have to open the email in order to delete it.

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
Have you tried closing all apps via the iPad's multitasking bar and then doing a soft-reset and seeing that helps ? To close all apps :
iOS 7: double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag each app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
iOS 6 and below : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Safari and other apps keep kicking me off. Even after closing all inactive apps? Any deals why?, Safari and other apps keep kicking me off. Even after closing all inactive apps? Any deals why?

I've double clicked the home button and closed all other apps other than the one I'm using. That doesn't seem to help. Is there something else I can do?

When you close all of apps in the recents tray, it might help if you restart the iPad or maybe even reboot it like this.
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 - let go of the buttons.
For Safari specifically, this might help as well. I would recommend restarting the iPad after clearing Safari.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

How to always start ipad app with first page?

Hi,
I'm creating an ipad app using InDesign CC.
Right now when I close the app and open it again it shows the last page before closing.
Is there a way to tell the app to always start from the first page?

OK, thx

Is it possible and legal to disable home button and the screenshot feature in an ipad app?

I am being asked to develop an iPad app that can't be closed until some actions are done, also it must prevent the use of screenshot feature and the home button. Is this possible? Is this legal? In case of this not being legal what would happen (in legal terms) if I do develop it?

It's impossible to develop an iPad app that can't be closed until some actions are done. The iPad programmer cannot override what happens when the user presses the 'Home' button. The 'Home' button will always tell the front application to go to the background, and if that application doesn't cooperate within a reasonable time it will be terminated.
Bear in mind that an iPad is an overgrown iPhone. It's always possible that someone will phone you up when you're running an app, and the app must release control and let you answer that phonecall.
I suggest you discuss the design philosophy with whoever wants the application, remembering that computers are meant to help us do what we want to do, not boss us about.

IPad app update kills app

Yesterday I downloaded three app updates, two for magazine readers and a third for the intellicast weather app. All downloaded and opened fine.
When I closed the intellicast app the icon went dark, the name below the app vanished and it would not open. I tried to delete it to reload it, but the icon jiggled, but no X appeared to delete it. I was, however, able to open it by going to the App Store, finding the app, and pressing the open button.
I then downloaded the Accuweather app and it did the same thing. Close it, won't reopen except through the store, and can't delete it.
The magazine.changes work fine and reopen, BTW.
Any thoughts?

Sometimes updates and downloads do the weirdest things like what you re experiencing now. I don't know if this will help, but it doesn't hurt anything and it quite often will fix the little hinky issues that you might see when you use your iPad. Reset the device and then see if you can delete the apps and download them again, or see if that fixes the way the icons look and work.
Reset 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 selected "update all" to update my apps, entered my ID and they all went to "waiting" and none of them started updating. Tried shutting down (several times), it was plugged in, I closed all open apps...tried uninstalling and reinstalling 1 app and it still is waiting? Thoughts?

See if any of these suggestions help you. They have worked for others in the past but YMMV.
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 - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

IPad app AiO Remote

I scanned document with IPad app AiO Remote and HP printer.
App created .pdf file 306 Mb in documents folder on my iPad Air iOS 8
When I tried to open document in AiO Remote, I receive error:
Not enough memory to complete operation.
And then .pdf preview window showed error
The operation couldn't be completed.
NSURLERRORDOMAIN error -999
Is there any way to save my scanned .pdf document and what is this error means?
Is this some restriction about size of scanned document in AiO a Remote? Or just a bug?

Hello @Justromagod ,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand that you are getting error messages when trying to use the AIO remote app.
I would like to help.
I get the 'Not enough memory to complete operation' message tells me that you might be running out of room on the iPad.
Also, the -999 error usually means: another request is made before the previous request is completed.
You could uninstall, then reinstall the app.
There is a Cloud Services department that supports the App.

IPAD App for SAP without Middleware

Hi experts,
I am new about mobility topics and I am involved in a new project that consists in developing iPAD apps using data from SAP ECC and saved into the tablet.
In my business scenario there will be about 1.000 users that need to synchronize data from SAP ECC with the following characteristics:
Volumes
Basically there are 2 type of data to store into the iPAD:
Clients assigned in Portfolio (about 1500 clients per User to download)
Static data (i.e. configuration table/parameter)
Let's assume that the size of data exchanged is about 3 Megabyte
Frequency
The initial upload has to be made once a year and thereafter once a day it should be checked for updates
At the very present time we are supposing to use web services calling SAP ECC in order to retrieve and store data.Is there any particular drawback in doing it without a Middleware?
I have heard about Sybase, but I cannot find the real advantage since it seems to be another database where data can be replicated into it. As for the device management console, my client is adopting yet AirWatch.
I have also heard about SAP Netweaver Gateway but I cannot catch the real advantage into using it.
Thanks
E.

Hi Emanuele,
In your case, SUP would provide the development tools, framework and APIs to easily handle the authentication, synchronization etc. You wouldn't need to define your own synchronization mechanism, it's in the product. Now if the updates are only sent from the server to the mobile devices, this shouldn't be to difficult to handle even without SUP.
You could easily create REST Web Services using Gateway and then consume them using the mobile devices. You don't want to consume SOAP Web Services using a mobile application, trust me. You could do this using the ICF (Internet Communication Framework) to achieve this but again it would be easier with Gateway.
You don't necessarily need SUP or Gateway to create only a simple mobile application. But then if your customer is happy with their first mobile application, they'll want more. And then products such as SUP or Gateway can make the difference. These products prodvide a standard development environment, tools to manage the apps and the users etc. With multiple mobile apps connected to multiple back-ends with more and more users, you'll need a middleware to manage all this and make sure the performance is great.
Usually people don't use SUP or Gateway for their first mobile application but then they start to see the benefits of mobility and they want more. And then they start to realize the benefits of these products and they understand that a real mobile strategy has to be defined etc.
Regards,
Pierre

IPad App Approved, How to Build/Submit iPhone Version?

I've got an iPad app approved and working well through iTunes, but now that the feature is available, I want to publish this for iPhone. I've got a few questions about the best process:
FYI—I've already got my new folios created for iPhone resolutions (as renditions with the same Product ID).
1. Is it best that I build an iPhone and iPad version of the app and submit it to Apple as a Version update (can I even do this with Apple)? Or should I build just an iPhone version and submit that as a separate app?
2. Why do I not get the iTunes Subscription option when I try to build the app in Viewer Builder (I chose to make an app for both iPhone and iPad). Multi-Issue is selected and grayed out so I can't change it.
Thanks!

I'm trying to do exactly the same this morning.
When I open Viewer Builder and try to modify the app (v19, multi-issue) you couldn't go back and select ipad and iphone devices with iOS.
I didn't try, but I think you probably have to create a new app with the same ID and settings, new certificates, etc... and submit to Apple this new one as an update.
Am I right?

Can only see New apps in iPad app store

Seems kind of pointless to search for apps on the iPad app store, when it will only show you the "new" ones. When I choose any category, then click the show all button, I don't get all, just the "new" ones ... never more than about 97 or so. searching the same category in iTunes for just iPad apps will almost always yield far more choices. for example I can only see about 97 utilities for the iPad from my iPad app store, but in iTunes there are 260 choices. They aren't iPhone apps either. Another example, if I show the games category on the iPad I can only see 27 New and Noteworthy apps, and 24 What's hot apps. No more. In iTunes I have an additional option of a subcategory, for example Action, there are 200 games released for iPad since March 31st available in that one category.
Not sure if I have a preference set wrong, it's just a bug, or if someone just wasn't thinking. Mayabe it's a bandwidth thing, but at least give me the subcategories or let me see the "next" 50.

Yes. How else do you access the App Store? I'm not aware that you can do the same thing from the iPad's App Store app. Nevertheless, whatever you browse from the iPad if there's "+" in the price it means the app can be used both on an iPhone and iPad.
I guess you finally understood the question
Why should I be forced to use iTunes to see all of the apps? The iPad app store should see everything just like iTunes.. This isn't an iPhone.
At least the link is some what helpful although quite slow going back and forth to app store to get details.

AiO iPad app + HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw

Hi.
I'm trying to let the AiO iPad app recognize my M276nw printer.
AirPrint printing works flawlessy, so the HP Supply app does (it recognizes the printer and let me check for toner levels).
There's no way to let the printer appear in the AiO Remote app but no luck.
I've tryied both wifi and ethernet connection. I've tryied several iOS devices with different iOS version but no positive results. Checking new firmware on the printer itself says latest version is already installed.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Luca DB

@lucadb
Thank you for posting regarding the AiO app and the m276nw printer. Based on your issue, I tested my m276nw printer with my iPad Air this morning and was able to find the printer and successully: print, scan and copy to and from it.
Question: When you first open the app, you should be have a screen called printer connections ~ does this screen show that your iOS device is connected to the printer and the router? If not, check your network connection between your printer and your iOS device?
If you are not seeing the above screen, then you are not using our newest app version and need to upgrade your app via the itunes store.
Please let me know if you continue to have issues with this app and connecting to the m276nw printer.

Printer Control iPad app can't find OfficeJet 8500 909g even though HP ePrint can

The HP Printer Control app for iPad can't find the HP OfficeJet 8500 909g. The printer is properly connected to the wireless network and was found easily by the HP ePrint iPad app (and by my computer's utility and scan apps). But when that ePrint app suggested I use the Printer Control to do mobile scanning, the PC app still couldn't find the printer.

Hi,
This is an expected behavior as only ePrint enabled devices are supported by the HP PRinter Control app, the specific model is not supported as you may listed below within the full chart of any supported products for the different mobile apps:
