How can I know what apps are running in the background of Q10

My battery is not lasting more than 12 hours even though I'm moderately using it. How can I tell which applications are running in the background?

As of now, the BB10 does not allow any apps to run in the background unless they are baked in the OS or in the active frames. So if an app is not in a active frame, no app is running in the background. try maximizing your battery by switching to wif whenever you have a wifi network.

I just got an IPAD2 on Saturday. With the Mac, I could always tell when programs were open/running by going to the menu bar. How can I tell what programs are running in the background. I am struggling with not being able to go to a menu bar at the top

You can see which apps are open and/or recently used by double-clicking the home button to bring up the taskbar at the bottom of the screen (not all apps that appear there are active) - you can then close apps on it by pressing and holding one of them for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar. If you have an app 'open' on-screen then it won't appear on the taskbar, you will need to go back to the homescreen first, and it should then show when you next open the taskbar.
If you haven't already got a copy then you can download the iPad manual from here : http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

How do i see what applications are running in the background

My iMac is running very slow my operating system is OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2 with a 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 Processor. How do I see what applications are running in the background?

Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Alternatively, see:
Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Choose the version you have installed now:
OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet

How can I tell if programs are running in the background.

iPod touch version 4.2.1, how can I tell if programs are running in the background. Battery is dead quickly and time/date reverts to Dec 31, 1969. can see thin silver frame around screen like something is running in background.

You really can't tell unless you hear music or similar. Many are always listening for notifications and other things.
To preserve battery life see the following:
Apple - Batteries - iPod
I leave mine in airplane mode when sleeping.

How can I see what apps are running on my iphone 5?

Is there an app that will show me the apps running and also allow me to close apps that don't need to be running?

Double tap the Home button, this brings up the Multi-Tasking bar. Any app running in the backgroud will be listed. Tap & hold any app until they all start to wiggle. Tap the red minus sign to remove the app from the Multi-Tasking bar.
Note: very few apps are actually running in the background...they must be designed to do so. Almost all apps listed will not be running, but rather in their last used state.

HT4528 I have an IPhone 4S--How do I see if apps are running in the background and should they be deleted?

I have an IPhone 4S. How do I see if there are any apps open in the background and if so, should they be deleted to save energy?
Thanks

Very few apps run in the background - mainly music playing apps and GPS apps. Double-clicking the Home button gives you a list of previously used apps, not (as so many people believe) "running" apps. You can delete the apps from the list if you wish, but it will make no difference to energy usage (unless they actually are running, as in the categories above. You should know if you are using GPS or if you can hear music).

How can I deternmine what apps are running on my Mac Book Pro

Hoe can I determine what applications I have open and running on my Mac Book Pro

1. Use Activity Monitor (it's in the Utilities folder, which is in Applications, or just type Shift-⌘-U in Finder)
2. Show the Dock and look for the "indicator lights".
If they are not there then go to System Preferences > Dock and select "show indicator lights for open applications"

What apps are running in the background?

I want to make sure apps are not running unnecessarily, is there a way to see all apps that are currently running? Also, are there any good battery apps that can monitor this?

So that the people who come here and give up their free time would not be answering questions that people could answer for themselves.
We could provide more support for more difficult issues if sometimes people just read the manual or search the forum before posting. These things have been answered before.
It does get frustrating sometimes to answer the same question over and over again, just because people are to lazy to do anything for themselves.
This is not a rant by the way, just an observation.

How can I see what apps are running on a non-startup disk

I recently changed over to a larger drive from my older startup drive. I want to erase that original drive and clean it up. When I go to Disk Utility and erase it says "erase failed, could not unmount disk". I try to eject it and it says "HD is in use".
I figure I just need to see what's running on that drive and stop it somehow, or if there is another workaround?

If you're willing to use a command in Terminal, try this, where "old_disk" is the name of the old disk. (If the name of the old disk contains any spaces, prefix each space with a back-slash.) It will show you each file on the old disk that's open.
sudo lsof | grep /Volumes/old_disk
Spaces doubled for readability. The character just before "sof" is a lower-case letter "L". You'll be prompted for your administrative account's password.

How do I find out what applications are running in the background

I have a 2008 iMac with 2GB memory. How do I find out what programs are running in the background? I am going to buy a new iMac before the end of the year to replace this one. When I looked at Activity Monitor it shows 1.8Gb used but doesn't tell all the programs running.

open activity monitor [if it doesnt launch click winders>Activity Monitor]. then it'll show all proceses

Double click your Menu button and swipe up the open Apps to close them.......

Colorblind users can't tell what apps are running

There needs to be a setting under Dock Preferences to CHANGE THE COLOR of the dot under running applications in the Dock.
I know the dot is there because I asked where the arrows went in the Apple Store and they told me it was there. After straining and squinting, I can almost see it. This is NOT ACCEPTABLE.
With my color blind situation, I can no longer tell what apps are running or not. I have to press command-option-escape for force quit just to see what is running.
Either bring back the Tiger black arrow, or allow a preference so that color blind users can tell what is going on.

You bring up an excellent point but no one at Apple who can make the change is likely reading Discussions. Put in a request for the Dock improvement at Apple OS X Feedback where it will be put in Apple's system for user requests.

How can I know what objects are under specific tablesapce?

Dear all,
I want to find out how many tables are under "SYSAPPL" tablespace. How can I know that?
Please advice,
Amy

Assuming you have appropriate privileges,
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM dba_tables
WHERE tablespace_name = 'SYSAPPL'If you don't have access to DBA_TABLES, you may be able to use USER_TABLES or ALL_TABLES, but that may miss objects that are in that tablespace that you don't have access to.

If Safari or internet apps are running in the "background..."

Are they still going using data? I'm a new member on a 2GB a month plan. Most of the time I'm on wifi, but not always. I've been being careful to turn them off if I'm not on wifi, but how careful do I have to be? I don't really know much about this.
Btw, what is a quick way to turn my apps off? The double click method on the circle and then hold a button until the minus button comes up and turn them off that way or is there a quicker way?
