Definition of "application in use" under iOS 4

With the "multitasking" capability in the iOS now, I was wondering what is the definition of "application in use."
I had couple instances of my mail being updated when I did not expect it to be because I was not using the application; given that both times it pulled whole bunch of messages over 3G it's a concern. I'm wondering if implication of setting Fetch > Manually setting changed.
All my notifications, push, etc. are off and Fetch is set to Manually at the global and the account level.
It is possible that the above mentioned downloads were part of completing an already initiated download which also happened under old OS and it would fit under completing a task interface in the new OS, but if so it was seriously delayed download. Either way I'm not clear whether manual fetch is supposed to occur or not when application is not in focus, i.e. when I'm looking at a different application or home screen?
How can one differentiate between application that are doing something in the background versus once that are totally suspended? Is the application in the "task manager" in use or not? It's easy enough if output is sound, but other than that one is left trying to deduce it's behavior (assuming no bugs) from the available settings or the manual if such is available and is detailed enough to explain such issues.
Ideas?

Just in case anyone is also still suffering from this issue, the best bet is to log it with Apple support. I just called them on UK (44) 0844 209 0611. Amazingly it seems this is the first they've heard of this issue, so its very important more people log it. This will help to get it escalated.
Just to confirm from further testing I've done, it seems to only be an issue for my Yahoo email account, which has push capabilities but is always set to manual. Tt DOES "push" the email to my phone, not "fetch" it, as I just had about 3 separate pings of messages in the space of 5 mins.
So - if you've also got the issue, call the number above and get it logged. The sooner we all do this, the sooner a repair can be built.

  • Can ibooks 2.01 run under iOS 5.1?, or am I forced to use ibooks 2.1??

    I learned the hard way about ibooks bugs and ios with the last update. Since I can't downgrade, I wont upgrade till I know I can still use ibooks 2.01 under iOS 5.1. Thanks.

    A model MC086LL is a 2G iPod and its hardware does not support higher than 4.2.1. It only has 128 MB of memory . The 3G and 4G have 256 MB and the 5G 512 MB.

  • Using Mail under iOS 5 Mail continues to suggest addresses that have been removed from Contacts. How do I remove old adreesses?

    Using Mail under iOS, 5 Mail continues to suggest addresses that have been removed from Contacts. How do I remove old, obsolete adreesses no longer in Contacts?

    If you open Mail and then in its File menu at the top, click on Window and choose Previous Recipients, you'll get a popup window listing them. At that point, you can highlight and delete any/all.

    Why don't iBooks shows definition after I have updated to iOS 6?

    The same reason why you can't use it under iOS5. It's exclusive to devices since the iPhone 4S.
    (for selling new products)
    So iPhone 4S, iPad 3, iPhone 5 and iPod Touch 5.
    Thinking about other features, you may be interested in 3D-Maps, but there for, you need an A5 CPU or better.
    So iPad2, iPhone 4S, iPad 3, iPhone 5 and iPod Touch 5.

    Your call of course but IMO a waste of money. Please read this first:
    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac has NOT been infected by a virus, it may have another security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.

  • Right way to code an AIR application that uses sqllite database

    I am developing an AIR application that uses sqllite database.I want to know the correct way in which I should create the connections and SQLstatements according to MVC pattern.For example,whether i should have a single SQLStatement object for all my sql operations or I should use separate objects for insert,delete,select etc.I know how to open connection,execute statements and all,but i want to know the professional way of writing it.

    Make a controller for connect to db and save the connection in global varible (in model). Use this connection variable whenever u wanna execute the sql statements. Create seperate dao's for each table. Queries should be executed under the daos. You can call the method under the dao for execute the query from controller and show the result in view.

  • Hi, We have an application  built using HTMl 5 and Javascript running on IPad2, iOS5.1 Safari 5.1. When we try to download a file(.pvw file) in that application safari throws "Download failed" error. Please suggest what needs to be done.

    Hi,
    We have an application  built using HTMl 5 and Javascript running on IPad2, iOS5.1 Safari 5.1.
    When a file url is clicked instead of asking for Save or Open or Cancel options, the file gets opened on IPad by default.
    Is this default behaviour which cannot be changed or can it be configured to ask user preference?
    When we try to download a file(.pvw file -> a model file) in the above application, safari throws "Download failed" error.
    Please suggest what needs to be done.
    Regards,
    Pramod

    Safari on an iPad in general does not allow downloading of files. That's a safety precaution in the iOS SDK to keep unauthorized content off of iOS devices. Safari will open from the web site file types that it can handle, but direct downloading isn't normal behavior, and I don't believe the behavior can be changed, though you can try asking in the developer forum, either here or the one to which you have access as a member of Apple's iOS developer program.
    Regards.

  • I have two apple id accounts ,when i used to update application it used to prompt a default id and if the application was downloaded using the other id i would cancel and it would prompt the other id but not any more .

    i have two apple id accounts ,when i used to update application it used to prompt a default id (the old one) and if the application was downloaded using the other id i would cancel and it would prompt the other id but not any more .
    it just prompt the old id which im not signed in with im signed in using the new id and when i cancel nothing happens and when i try to update applications separately  i have the same problem .
    im signed in using the new id
    the old one is my wife's so i can't delete it
    the problem happens  when i update all or  each application by its own
    using ios 5.0.1 on a iphone 3gs
    the applications are downloaded using both the new and old id's
    any help will be greatly appreciatedِ

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here and they don't monitor these forums - I've asked the hosts to remove yout account ids from your post.
    In terms of combining accounts it's not currently possible to do so, nor to copy/transfer content from account to another.

  • How to get web application to use Tuscany without conflicting with SAP SDO

    Hi,
    We are attempting to run a web application on SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1 SP1 which uses Tuscany SDO.  As it now stands We must use Tuscany because the web application will not run with the SAP SDO implementation provided by Netweaver. To ensure that Tuscany is loaded with priority, we have packaged the Tuscany JAR files and their dependencies as a heavy resource, as described here:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/60642a88-95fe-2b10-d387-a245d48fc257?overridelayout=true
    The final check showed that Tuscany was correctly deployed as a heavy resource and included the following JAR files:
    common-2.2.3.jar
    ecore-2.2.3.jar
    ecore-change-2.2.3.jar
    ecore-xmi-2.2.3.jar
    tuscany-sdo-impl-1.1.1.jar
    tuscany-sdo-lib-1.1.1.jar
    tuscany-sdo-tools-1.1.1.jar
    xsd-2.2.3.jar
    We also verified that the web application using Tuscany has a hard reference to the Tuscany heavy resource.
    However, when we try to run the web application, the following error is logged:  java.lang.LinkageError: Class commonj/sdo/DataGraph violates loader constraints
    The issue is definitely due to some kind of classloading conflict with the SAP SDO library, as the application runs normally when SAP SDO is manually removed from the classpath. Doing this on a production system is unfortunately not an option, though.
    So the question is: how to get web application to use Tuscany without conflicting with SAP SDO?

    I took a look at the "printerReady" example.  Looks like I may be able to use the InetPing (...) function to ping through a range of IP addresses looking for a response.
    Any ideas on how to find the MAC address associated with the IP addresses that respond?
    We may have multiple units responding and the MAC address will allow the operator to determing which unit to connect to.
    I'll try the InetPing to see how it works,

  • The account application created using can see current Blank Site page but no other user account see current page only some old page?

    Hello Community
        Using Sharepoint 2010 Server and the UI, building an intranet
    starting with a Blank Site and then adding subsites can be accomplished.
        However, in this case the current Blank Site page that was created only shows
    when logged in using the account that the application was created under.
        Any other account used to login with when the url is typed into the
    address bar does not show the current Blank Site page.
       Instead when using any other account the page that is returned is
    some page that was created early in in the creation of the site.
        A Blank site is said to be:
            "A blank site for you to customize based on your requirements."
        I checked-in the v4.master and approved it but the problem still exists.
        Then I checked the Site Collection features under Site Collection
    Administration "Active" contains:
        Sharepoint Server Publishing Infrastucture
        Sharepoint Server Standard Site Collection features
        Then I checked under Site Actions has Manage Site features "Active"
    contains:
        Sharepoint Server Publishing
        Sharepoint server Standard Site features
        It is said that maybe the page needs to be "Published".  Basically
    this is a Blank Site page so when the instructions says:
       "To publish a page, on the page that you are editing, on the
    Page Editing toolbar, click Publish."
        I am unable to do it because when I:
           "Edit Page"
        There is not no option on the ribbon to choose "Publish".
        Neither did I see the "Publish"option when editing the v4.master in SPD.
        In summary, when logged in with the account that everything was created
    under I can see the current Blank Site with the Lists and everthing else
    on the page but how come when I login with any other user account
    I don't see the current Blank Site page but instead see some old page that
    I may have created earlier when creating the application?
        Thank you
        Shabeaut

    Hello Community
        I think it is worth mentioning that the Top Link Bar shows what appears
    on the current Blank Site page but it is the OOTB NoteBoard  and Discussion Board
    List which both reside in Left web part on the Blank Site page that has been replaced
    on the page by what had been in an old Content Editor web part during early creation.
        How can I grant permissions to the OOTB NoteBoard and the Discussion Board List
    that would allow other user accounts to see them, thus making the entire current Blank Site page
    visible other user accounts?
        Thank you
        Shabeaut

  • How do I transfer RAW+jpg to cloud storage under iOS 8?

    I want to transfer Canon RAW+jpg CR2 files, imported from the camera via the camera connection kit, from my iPad to cloud storage in Dropbox. Prior to iOS 8, I could accomplish this by exporting from the photography workflow app PhotosInfoPro. That functionality is now broken. The app performs correctly when handling pure jpg files, or handling pure RAW files, but fails when handling RAW+jpg. The operation completes without any error messages, but only the jpg data from the RAW+jpg has been uploaded to the cloud. The RAW sensor data isn't there.
    Is there an alternate method to transfer these files from the iPad to cloud storage - either Dropbox or Google Drive? I have tried many different things, none of which were successful. I can get the jpg portion into the cloud, but not the RAW portion. If you know of a method or an app that is performing this successfully under iOS 8, please help. I am at my wits end.

      How can I transfer the photos to the Cloud to free up some space?
    iCloud does not store photos long term. You can share your photos to your Photo Stream to transfer them, but you need to download them on another device, before you delete them from your iPhone.
    Back them up on a computer, before you delete them from your iPhone.
    For example, by:
    Import photos directly into iPhoto or Aperture on your computer.
    Save photos to your computer using iTunes.

  • I have an ipod that I have been using for iTunes, when I connect now to sync, and hit the eject ipod, I get a warning it can't eject due to applications being used in another program. I am having trouble disconnecting. Help!

    I am having a problem with the new iTunes store. I can connect my ipod, and it will show that it is syncing. Once the sync is complete on iTunes, my ipod still shows that it is connected, do not eject. I have not had a problem with this until the new verision of iTunes. When I go to eject my ipod, it tells me that it can't eject due to application being used in another program. I did receive an ipad 2 for Christmas, that I also sync with iTunes, but only the ipad shows up in my devices on the site, what happened to my ipod device and how to add it back to devices?

  • How is it possible to cancel (not suspend) a video download from iTunes Store (iPad under iOs 6)? (I do not have sufficient storage space on my iPad)

    Hi,
    I am facing the following difficulty with my iPad (model MD369NF/A) under iOs 6.1.3.
    I have bought 2 videos on iTunes Store, but I do not succeed in downloading them: an error message mentions that iPas does not have enough storage capacity.
    As a matter of face, when I look at the way the storage is used, I find “Others” for around 10 Go (is there some king of reserved space for the downloading of videos from iTunes Store?), and only a very small number of Mo available.
    I would simply like to cancel the downloading of the 2 videos, and hope that it would free the "Others" storage space (in the hypothesis that "Others" is space reserved for videos once downloaded), but I do not manage to do it. I can suspend the downloading, but I do not see how to cancel it.
    Would you have a solution to propose ?
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Nicolas

    Hey Nicolas36,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The following article outlines issues with free space, capacity, and a large amount of "other" space. You'll want to connect your iPad to your computer with iTunes to follow the steps:
    iOS: 'Not enough free space' alert when trying to sync
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1503
    One symptom of this issue will be displayed in iTunes where the Capacity indicator for the iOS device will report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the device. To resolve this issue:
    - Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    - Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    - Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    - Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
