Double clicking to close apps

Has anyone experienced a problem of double clicking to close open apps, after updating to IOS 7.1, has really slowed down?  I sometimes have to double click many times to get the closing screen to open.  Much more than in previous versions.  Any advice?

After double clicking fling the page of the app you wish to close off the top of the display.

  • Help w/ fixing my broken ipod touch. I have to double click on an app in order to open it, can't leave the home screen, apps don't work!

    I'm not sure what happened, but I can't leave my home screen unless I press n hold an app and move it to another page, then when i press the home button so the apps stop shaking I can stay on another page. Other than doing it that way I can't scroll from one page to another. When I click on an app a thin box appears around it, not only with apps but when I click on the time or battery or ANYTHING! In order for me to open any of the apps I have to double click on it and then when it opens I can't do anything in the app. Even when I went to settings to see if there was something in there to fix this problem I can't go anywhere or do anything. Someone please help!!!

    Im having this same problem an my phone is about 3 weeks old. I am not sure about the voice over part though...I have not yet figured out how to work the voice recognition part of the phone...I am such a newbie with this phone. I did the power off/on suggestion, several times. I tried leaving it off for 10 minutes. Tried to reset with the power on/off and home button pressed at the same time. Charged battery. Still makes no difference. You cannot scroll any direction. Have to double click to open apps. Have to double click letters when texting or emailing in order to get the letter in the text box. Can scroll through app choices, have to click on the line with the dots in it and move from page to page. Can't access the settings - > general - > accessibility - because it won't allow me to scroll down to "general".
    Anyone help you with your fix yet?

  • I have to double-click on the apps, Siri talks about each movement like it is a tutorial, and I cannot scroll

    I need help resetting my phone.  For some reason I now have to double-click on the apps, Siri talks me through each move like it's a tutorial, and I cannot scroll on the phone at all.  How do I get out of this?

    You have VoiceOver activated. Triple click on the Home button to turn it off.

  • Turn Off Double-Click to Close?

    Is there any way to turn off the 'Double-Click to Close' functionality for creating selections (such as a Polygon selection)?
    I am making complex selections and accidentally double-clicking with my Wacom pen and it closes the selection when I don't want it to.  I have tried setting the Wacom pen preferences for Photoshop but have been unable to affect this issue there.  Obviously, I can continue to add to selections, but the premature closing frequently ends up with wacked shaped selection which I must do more work to cleanup.  If I could turn off the PS double-click to close functionality it would fix this problem.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the ideas folks.  I guess it's a wish for the future then.
    I like the Polygon Lasso tool... just wish the double-click to close could be turned off (I am far faster tracing areas with the Polygon Lasso tool than futzing with the Magnetic Lasso tool... but the rapid fire use of the Polygon tool is triggering the double-click to close action).
    In the Wacom control panel, there is a setting for Double-Click Distance, but turning it to OFF had no effect.  Also setting the Mouse settings double-click speed made no difference... I am still triggering the double-click to close.
    In any event, I'll work around the issue.
    Thanks again.

  • HT201412 I bought my I pad 3 2 days ago and the touchscreen buttons are not responding.  some voice is telling me to double click on the apps and then telling me what the app is!  I am not great with computers and so on - can anyone help???????  thanks!

    I bought an I Pad 3 2 days ago and updated to IOS 6 Software.  Was working fine until last night and now it is not responding to touchscreen but is instead a voice advising me to double click on my apps and then which explains them - like a tutorial.  Please help!

    Sounds like you have VoiceOver (one of the accessibility features) 'on'. Try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.
    If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064

  • Before update I double clicked to close things like kindle etc to save battery. I cannot do that now, it brings the screen .

    Can anyone help, I cannot close screens such as kindle that I have open. Previously double clicked and they closed, now wasting my battery.

    A single press of the home button brings you back to the desktop.
    If you mean closing an app from the recently opened tray, double click home button-scroll to app to close and flick the screenshot up.

  • Double-clicking - OS 9 apps launch, but documents don't open

    On my G4 dual 450MHz PowerMac with OS 10.4.3 and Classic...when I double-click on a Microsoft Word 2001 document or a Quark 5 document (an document created by a classic app) the program that created the file starts up - like Word or Quark, but the window for the document does not show up.
    So in the application I have to go to File->Open to open my Word docs or Quark docs.
    Also, I have the Quark 5 and Word 2001 icons in my doc. Strangly, if I drag my Quark & Word documents on to their respective dock icons, the programs start up, but still the document's don't open in a window.
    When booting in OS 9, double-clicking on Word & Quark documents opens up the app and the document.
    I tried rebuilding the OS 9 desktop from System Preferences.Also rebuilt the desktop using TechTool. Ran DiskWarrior on the hard drive. Cleaned out a bunch of caches with Onyx. I used DiskUtility to 'repair permissions'
    Any suggestions?

    I do think the docs are meant to open from double-clicking and in all seriousness, I think there's just at least one layer too much going on for the Mac to keep track and the poor user can't get round that.
    My Mac has never remembered to open the XPress documents I double-clicked, even though it launches Classic 9 and XPress.
    If double-click still fails to open a doc when its application is already running that's a different matter…

  • Cannot load .dll files in another directory when double clicking on the .exe

    Hi all,
    I am currently using VS 2005. I have quite a few of .dll(s) that is currently residing in the same directory as the .exe
    I want to put the .dll(s) in another directory and have the application point it to that directory so that it can load the .dll(s) from there. 
    I know that I am able to set the Environment path to my desired directory in project properties->debugging. 
    However, i also know that this is only applicable for debug mode and executing the app by pressing "F5" or the "play" button.
    But when i double click on the app in the debug folder, it does not load the .dll(s) from the specified path. 
    How can I make the .dll(s) load from my specified path even when i double click on the .exe? in debug and release mode. 
    Cheers,
    nat

    Hi Nat,
    Thank you for your information.
    Your issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses
    the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
    and Visual Studio Editor.
    Because you want to load dlls from your application, it is more related to programming, I suggest opening a new thread about your issue in some development forums based on the type of your application. For example, if you are working with Windows Forms app,
    you can consult on Windows Forms Forum:http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/home?category=windowsforms
    If you are working with WPF app, WPF forum is a proper forum:
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/home?forum=wpf

    The format keeps changing but the basics remain...in the center of the screen are large images of the recent apps which you can close by swiping up and away.

  • Unable to close open apps with double clicking the button and when I tap screen does not respond?

    Cannot not close open apps with double clicking the button Since downloading iOS8.

    What happens when you try? Does double clicking the ?home button bring up the Task Bar of recently used apps? If so what happens when you flick up on the preview screen for the app you want to close?
    To quit an app double click the Home button to reveal the row of recently used apps. Flick up on the page preview and it will fly away and disappear. That quits the app.

    Double-tap on the Home button. You will see a preview of the app above the actual icon. Slide the preview up to kill it.
