Dropbox force to close on ipad

Dropbox app on some of the iPad Air has been not functioning recently and I needed to re-install the app to make it working again. As soon as I tapped on the dropbox icon, the app would pop up with a blank page and then shut itself off in one 3rd of a second. After a hard boot (held the Home and Turn off button together) and clearing all caches and cookies, the app still would not work. I wonder if this has to do with the iOS. In fact, the same situation happened on iOS 8.0.2 and 7.1.2. Also I made sure that's the latest version of dropbox app is installed on my iPad Air (wi-fi+cellular type). Has anyone heard of this case? And how should I deal with it?

I was only able to power off with this method, but ipad still kept the apps open.  I want to force a single app to close so that I do not have to use so many 5 finger swipes to get to the apps I want. Is there another way to accomplish this?

  • When I close my iPad it dosent really close it stays open and when I reopen it it goes to home

    When I close my iPad it dosent really close it stays open and when I re-open it  it goes immidiatly goes on home and my home button dosent work

    I'm sorry, but I don't know what you mean by closing your iPad. Are you talking about shutting it down? Powering off?
    And you say when you close it it doesn't stay closed and when you reopen it ??? If it doesn't stay closed....Whatever that is - how can it possibly reopen? It already is open based on what you are saying.
    You also make it sound like the iPad is crashing and you are saying that the home button doesn't work. Do those two things have something to do with one another?

    i deleted some programs and now i cant close my ipad

    I have no clue what close your iPad means. You can't shut it off? Try rebooting and see what happens.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • When we shutdown the pc,it showing force to close application and how to avoid this.

    Hi Support,
    Whenever i am shutting down the computer,every time it is showing " force to close the application" YES or NO.If we click on YES,it is closing the application and shutting down.
    Even i have checked, none of the applications are running but it is showing force to close the applications.If we click on Yes,it is shutting down.
    Please let me know how what are the checklist to be checked in the computer before shutting down the computer.
    Regards
    Pradeep.R

    Hi Pradeep,
    Method one:
    You could use the command to force shutdown:
    1. Open the command prompt with administrator.
    2. Type shutdown /f /s /t 00
    3. Press Enter.
    It would shutdown the Windows immediately.
    Method two:
    Create a shortcut of shotdown that would work immediately
    1. Right click desktop, select New-> Shortcut
    2. Type as below:
    3. Click Next and then create the shortcut name to finish it.
    4. You also could pin it to taskbar as other application(optional).
    Every time you need to shutdown the computer, run this shortcut.
    Method three:
    You could add an entry to registry to change this behavior. For more information, please refer to this thread:

    String popupID= popID.getClientId(context);
    StringBuilder script = new StringBuilder();
    script.append("var popup3 = AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent('").append(popupID).append("'); ").append("if (popup3.isPopupVisible()) { popup3.hide();}");
    ExtendedRenderKitService erks = Service.getService(context.getRenderKit(), ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
    erks.addScript(context, script.toString());
    This is button:
    <af:commandButton text="OK" id="cb1"
    actionListener="#{backingBeanScope.Izvodi.closePopup}">
    <af:setActionListener from="#{pageFlowScope.idIzvoda}" to="#{pageFlowScope.Print.jasperParam}"/>
    <af:setActionListener from="eizvod" to="#{pageFlowScope.Print.jasperTip}"/>
    <af:setActionListener from="#{backingBeanScope.Izvodi.vrstaStampeSufiks}" to="#{pageFlowScope.Print.jasperVrsta}"/>

    <af:resetActionListener/>
    </af:commandButton>
    Do you have idea how to force to close popup after pressing button OK????
    Thanks!!!!

    I really dont know how it doesnt work for me.
    Please, take a look.
    <af:popup id="popStampaj" eventContext="launcher" launcherVar="source" contentDelivery="lazyUncached" binding="#{backingBeanScope.Izvodi.popStampaj}">
    Bean:
    import oracle.adf.view.rich.component.rich.RichPopup;
    private RichPopup popStampaj;
    public void closePopup(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
    popStampaj.hide(); // method hide not found
    public void setPopStampaj(RichPopup popStampaj) {
    this.popStampaj = popStampaj;
    public RichPopup getPopStampaj() {
    return popStampaj;
    It is all. I really dont know what is problem. How do you have method hide() and I dont have???

  • When sleeping, programs are forced to close.

    2010 iMac running 10.9.4.  Lately certain programs are forced to close on a regular basis.  This includes Safari, Mail, Crashplan.  It usually happens when the computer is sleeping.  When I wake up the computer first thing in the morning, I usually have 3 - 4 messages saying that certain programs were forced to restart.  This can also sometimes occur when the computer is not sleeping, but when I am using it.  Typically it's Safari that is forced to restart.
    Recently upgraded RAM and added Crashplan software for data backup. 
    Any thoughts?

    I am forced to close the app and I can't use that tool or the same thing happens. Anyways to solve it? Thanks!

    Hi Ignacio,
    I am currently using version 1.2.1.
    I just tried it with a smaller project and the loading wheel did not appear but the brush seemed to have lagged on the screen. It returned to normal after about 20 seconds.
    Yes, I have used all tools and this is the only tool that makes it happen.
    Thanks.

  • HT4059 I use the bookmark option and after  I close the iPad it opens up on the first bookmark I used

    I read on my iBook, I mark a bookmark, when I close my iPad, after I come back, it opens up at my first bookmark I used.

    I'm not sure if I am having the same problem or just a similar problem.    Lately when I open a book in iBooks it automatically opens not to the page where the bookmark is, but so e earlier page.   Not certain if it is opening to a random page or a previously bookmarked page.
    It happens on my iPad 2, iOS 6.0.1. In Settings sync Bookmarks is set to "on" and I use iCloud to sync devices as well as plugging in to iTunes on my Mac almost  daily to make back ups.   I don't tend to open iBooks on my iPhone 4S, but it is set to sync anyway.

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I could not close the ipad because the display frozened in large font and could no go back

    Why is this happening? I could not close the iPad because the display frozened in very large font and could no go back.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Hello iam lost my ipad how to the company close my ipad because no body to useit please helpe me soon?, hello iam lost my ipad how to the company close my ipad because no body to useit please helpe me soon?

    hello iam lost my ipad how to the company close my ipad because no body to useit please helpe me soon? beacuse some one stolen frome me and he use it now iwant frome u to close it this is my serial no :IE6554690W

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions Forums.
    We cannot assist you here with your stolen iPad, you need to contact the authorities and report the theft.  If by 'closing' your iPad you mean securing it, we can't help with that either. However you should change any email or other passwords you may have used with it as soon as possible, including your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) password.
    Also, it is not recommended to post serial numbers in a public forum - you need to edit your post to remove that information.
    I sincerely hope the iPad can be found and returned to you.

    If it was stolen then you need to report it to the police, Apple cannot help you.
    If you had set up MobileMe/Find My iPad on it then you might be able to track and/or remotely wipe its contents via MobileMe - though it will need to be connected to a network for that to be possible. If you didn't set it up on it then there is nothing you can do. But at the minimum you should probably now change your email and iTunes account passwords, and any other passwords that you stored on websites or in notes/emails on the iPad.

  • Forced to Close all open applications when switching between users.

    I recently purchased a MacBook Pro 13 inch, and have 2 accounts set up on the computer.
    When switching between users on the computer, I am always forced to close all open applications on the current user, in order to switch to another user.
    I was wondering if there was ANY way to keep the pages (specifically Safari) open when switching to another user, so that I can go back to them when I log back in to the other account.
    thanks for the help!

    Enjoy!
