GarageBand running in the background with video app open

I was wondering if GarageBand will run in the background while I'm using the video app on the iPad. Basically, I'm looking to have my guitar running into my iPad with GarageBand running, while watching/following along with a guitar video lesson I also have on my iPad. Can the two programs run simultaneously, or will the video app eliminate the sounds I would get from GarageBand? Thanks.

Yes, I've done that while playing youtube videos with the youtube app (I'm still using ios 5.1).
Just go the wrench icon in Garageband and turn on "Run in Background".

Does Safari use up bandwidth if I leave it running in the background with zero tabs open? Do I have to quit the application each time I am done to avoid exceeding my internet usage/host quota?

If I leave Safari running in the background with zero tabs open, does it still use up bandwidth? Do I have to quit the application each time I am done to avoid exceeding my internet usage/host quota? I'd rather not have to since quitting the application and restarting it when I need to will quickly become tedious, but if that saves me on bandwidth usage, I'll do it. Thanks!

They changed it a bit, but you can still close apps. Double click the Home button to pull up the currently running apps. Side scroll over to the app you want to close, then swipe up on the app *window* (not the icon at the bottom).

I have a web site running in the background with audio only. I don't know what it is but I want to delete it.

My 27 in I-Mac had a voice narrative or podcast running the background when I open Safari. I can't identify this site to find where I might delete it; I don't even remember how I opened it. All I want to do is delete it.

I found the narrative through Mission Control and it was an article on E-Bay which I had opened. It is now closed/deleted.

How to turn off programs running in the background withiOS7?

I would just add that it is not necessary. The programs referred to are only the recently used programs, and are not "running in the background" with the sometimes exception of GPS apps and music apps. They are simply dormant in the memory. The operating system will remove these programs if the space is required.

How can I record with GarageBand 1.3 in the background using other app?

How can I record with GarageBand 1.3 in the background using other app?
I use iPad 2 with iOS 6 and GarageBand v1.3.
I'd like to play an other app like Sunrizer synth while the GarageBand is recording in the background in a track.
By now I can do it only using the build-in mic of iPad, but this is not the point.
Can I record other apps in a GarageBand track?
Thanks a lot for your time.

I suspect you are probably correct about the reasoning, although there are already a myriad of ways to do that.
Don't get me wrong - I never said I like this. But it is consistent with other Apple applications, that are similar restrictive; you cannot take a screenshot, when dvd-player is running for example.
That are the moments, when I am glad that MacOS X is a unix system under the hood

Is there a way to keep apps from running in the background?

I just updated to an Iphone 6, with the latest version of IOS. It's a great product, but for me there is one annoyance. There are times when my memory gets low. I find out that it's the apps that are running in the background. I personally don't use this. All it does is hog memory. Then, to close the apps, you have to close each one individually. I forgot how many apps I have open, I'm of the mindset that when I close the app, that it's "really" closed, not still running in the background. It would be nice if there was a way to disable this function. It doesn't seem to serve a purpose for me in the way I use the Iphone. I just "cleaned up my list of "behind the scenes apps" and I had about 20. It gets frustrating to have to go to each one to close it. Any comments or suggestions?

Some things that might help:
1. Only the most recently used apps actually occupy memory (used to be the most recent 4, but may have changed in the latest iPhones). After 4 (or so), IOS writes them out of active memory, as it does for even the latest 4 if there's no activity for a long time. So the business of closing all the open apps, apart from the most recent ones doesn't make a difference. Tis article has a good explanation:
http://www.speirs.org/blog/2012/1/2/misconceptions-about-ios-multitasking.html
2. There are settings about background app activity that might help:
- Settings, General, Background App Refresh controls which apps can update their data in the background
- Settings, Notifications controls which apps can tell you things, which they have to wake up to do.
- Settings, Privacy, Location Services controls which apps monitor your location - another activity that uses resources
Hope some of that helps
