Control center opens about one time in ten on my iPhone 4S. How come?

I recently installed iOS 7 on my iPhone 4S. When I sweep up from the bottom of the screen, Control Center only opens about one time in ten. All the other gestures seem to work appropriately. Is there a magic gesture? I've tried long and short sweeps, hard, gentle and medium pressure, but it still seems to rely on pure luck.

I am currently using an iPhone 4 and found a similar issue. I have a Lifeproof case on my phone, yet still had issues swiping up even without having the otterbox issue. I restored my phone and it is working a lot better. You could try that if the isue persists.

  • I get a dialog box with a copy of firefox is open and only one copy of firefox can be open at one time.

    I get a dialog box with the following: "a copy of firefox is open and only one copy of firefox can be opened at one time."
    I do not see where firefox is open.
    How do get back into firefox so that i can read the links that are in my emails?
    Thank you.

    Sometimes when FF is closing, not all of it shuts down properly.
    On Windows, start the '''Task Manager''' (Other systems may have
    different names and / or commands). Select '''Processes'''.
    Look down the list for Firefox. Right click and select '''End Task'''.
    If this problem keeps coming up, ask for more help.

  • How many Safari windows can I open at one time?

    I have an old habit of keeping lots of Safari windows open at one time, instead of closing them as I go. I'm using a G4 iBook with 768 of RAM over an Airport wireless system. I have at least 40 gigs of open space on my HD and recently repaired permissions and emptied cache and history, but it takes FOREVER for new pages to load. I've enabled the interference filter, which seemed to help for a day or so, but I'm back to beach ball ****. Meanwhile, my spouse is using a TiBook 667 with Airport card on the same Airport base station, and has none of the delays I do.
    Does having a couple dozen Safari windows open at one time slow the whole program down? If not, anyone have any other ideas?

    iTunes will only open one library at a time.
    Regards.

  • How many apps can be open at one time?

    My friend did not know how to close apps. I showed her and was shocked at how many she had open at one time. Everything since she got her ipad over a year ago. She must have had 30 games, pictures, internet, lists, contacts, mail, video, everything was open.
    It made me curious if there is a maximum number that can be open at one time, and if at some point will they automatically close themselves?
    Thanks

    Open apps consume almost no resources, unless they run background refresh. Once they have been inactive for a while, iOS writes the current state back to storage, to free up RAM for other processes. You can see this when some apps, particularly big heavy games like Infinity Blade, relaunch from the starting splash screens instead of taking up precisely where they were left.
    It's still good practice to close down stuff every so often, but not necessary, as you've discovered.

  • I downloaded an album on itunes using my new itouch; but it's only allowing me to put three songs at any one time into the music app...how can i get it to just move them all in there?

    i downloaded an album on itunes using my new itouch; but it's only allowing me to put three songs at any one time into the music app...how can i get it to just move them all in there?

    hi philly, thanks for getting back to me, especially on such a busy day.
    I don't think that's quite the issue though. I bought an album and it appears in 'my purchases' within the itunes app. Yet, in order to listen to the music, i must use the 'music' app and in this application, there are only three tracks displayed at any one time from my downloaded album.
    I can 'download all' from the 'my purchases' section but that still doesn't help, it just keeps the last three tracks downloaded in the music app.
    I have the 'icloud' enabled and wondered if it had anything to do with that.
    i have successfully downloaded another full album totally into the music app, but this first album is causing me problems.

  • Control center opening

    Is there some alternative method of opening control center?  Some users with certain types of cases are unable to open control center with the swipe up from the bottom.  Why didn't testing discover this, and offer an alternative.  Even Siri won't open it.  Come on, guys, this is basic.

    Yes, I have the exact same problem with Control Center - I have to swipe countless number of times to get it to open. I tied two-finger swipes, certer swipe, corner swipe - you name it; nothing worked. I have iPhone 4S and I have no idea whether it is just phone issue or a major screw-up with the system.
    Cases that come close to the bottom of the screen render opening the control center nearly impossible.  I told my wife not to get a case like that, but she thought it would protect the phone better...  What good is a protected phone if you can't USE it?  Just lock it in a box, and it will be safe....

  • Can not access control center-more than one way to turn off and on portait rotate?

    The very bottom of my screen does not register touch for some unknown reason ( I have a 4s and iOS 7.1)—however I've been dealing with that by rotating my phone to pull up the keyboard to type for text messages, etc. I accidently locked my ability to rotate my phone and now I can't pull up the control center to turn it off. Is there another way to access this function?

    Thank you for the quick response. Unfortunately, in the AssistiveTouch there is still no way to turn off the locked position of my screen, so when I click the different rotate options provided, the screen does not change orientation... any thoughts?

  • HT5858 My iphone  4 has iOS 7, and the flashlight feature use to be in the control center however just recently I've noticed that it has disappeared, how do i get it back?

    My iphone 4 used to have the flashlight feature in the control center. It obviously has iOS 7 in fact iOS 7.0.4 and now there is no flashlight icon in the control center, how do I get it back?

    Thanks a lot!!! I honestly feel like that was the simplest thing ever and that I should've thought of atleast turning my phone off then back on again but again, thanks!!

  • I cannot get on to my Apple TV.  I know that they are now requiring a one time security code?  What is it How do I find it?

    I know that they are now requiring a one time security code.  How do I find it?  Does anyone know what it is?

    There is no such code required to use the Apple TV. A user can setup a passcode to be required for airplay, and Apple ID is required for use of the iTunes store (or any other subscriptions associated with it).

  • Multiple form fill-ed's open at one time - crashing

    I have many form fill-ed documents created using Live Cycle.   Issues have been reported regarding adobe shutting down in the middle of filling out a form.  Tow of our employees have this crashing issue.  They both have Windows 7; Adobe Reader XI, and IE X.  I have trouble shooted several different options.  I have used the acrobat_ittools_cleaner to remove old acrobat (recommended by acrobat). 
    I had the Two employees use one form fill at a time to determine the cause of the crashing.  If they use only ONE form at a time, there is not crashing.  The minute they open two forms, and start to fill in the form, it crashes. 
    These forms are not new,  They worked fine with mulitple forms open in the past.  I created these forms in Live Cycle (which came with Acrobat Pro 9).  I figured with the added security in Acrobat XI, I needed to update the forms using Live Cycle Designer ES4.  That did not help either.
    What else can I do to correct this problem?    

    Maggie,
    There are some things you need to consider:
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    function f_mass_update()
    var counter = 0;
    for (var i = 0; i < document.wwv_flow.f03.length; i++)
    {var curr_id = document.wwv_flow.f03.id;
    if ($x(curr_id).value == 'COMPLETE')
    {$x(curr_id).value = 'CANCELED';
    $x(curr_id).style.color = "darkred";
    $x(curr_id).style.fontWeight = "bold";
    $x(curr_id).style.background = "yellow";
    $x(curr_id).style.width = "103px";
    counter = counter + 1;}}
    if (counter == 0)
    {alert ('There are no more statuses to change!');}
    else {alert(counter + ' Records updated!');}
    </script>is the correct script if you escape COMPLETE as 'COMPLETE' and CANCELED as 'CANCELED'. The same rules apply for javascript as for the most other programming languagas - numbers do not need to be escaped but character strings do.
    The second thing is the question of your tabular form id. In my case it was f03 but in your case it is probably different. If you created a wizard tabular form and didn't touch it, you could count the columns.
    If your column is the first editable column than it will be f03. The second will be f04 and so on. My recomendation is to use Firefox and download the extension Firebug. With firebug you can do HTML > Inspect and go with the mouse over any element on your page. Click on the actual tabular form cell and it will show you some code like this:
    <input type="text" id="f03_0001" value="10" maxlength="2000" size="16" name="f03"/>so, the name of the element is f03.
    See the same page, now with an image attached of what I just explained:

  • Multiple Sites Open At One Time?

    Is it possible to have two completely different web sites
    open at the same time in Dreamweaver so that I can easily switch
    back and forth between the two? I am tired of closing all the pages
    in one site and then having to open all the pages for an entirely
    new and different site.
    Really appreciate any help

    > Is it possible to have two completely different web
    sites open at the same
    > time
    You can have the files open, but if you are in one "site"
    then click into a
    file that belongs to a different "site", dreamweaver is set
    to calculate
    paths based on the "site" you are in. Since the files and
    paths in them are
    not in the "Local Site Folder" for the site dreamweaver
    thinks you are
    working in- the paths will come out as absolute full local
    hard drive paths.
    so- no you can't.
    change sites within dreamweaver using whatever menu choice
    works for you
    before going to work on a file that is a different "site"
    If you have five files open each in different sites, dw
    doesn't switch what
    site it is "working" in when you touch the new file. You have
    to tell the
    app what you are doing.
