  • HT4623 How do I close apps that are running in the background.  If you double click button you used to be able to press and hold for the "x" to come up to allow you to close, but now I can't .

    How do I close apps that are running in the background.  You used to double press the button, and then press and hold to allow the "x" to come up, so you could close them down.

    Close all apps in multi-task window
    1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
    2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
    3. The app will fly off the screen

  • HT201365 How do I turn off applications to keep my battery level up?  I used to be able to press the bottom button twice and hold down an icon until it jiggled and had an x on it.  That doesn't seem to work with the new upgrade.

    With the new OS 7 I can't figure out how to shut down applications to save battery.  I used to double click the bottom button and select applications to " x" out of.  How does this work now?

    double tap the home button and swipe up on the app screenshot.
    Having apps in the multi task doesn't effect your battery life.

  • How do I delete two "Albums"?  I deleted the photos but they show up anyway as camera roll on the Wallpaper.  Also I get no camera icon when I push the home button twice I get a Picture Frame icon that open the two photos that I deleted.

    I bought "slightly used 64 Gig iPad.  Works fine but somehow I still have two alburms in iPhoto.  I fooled around and took two photos, deleted them and now One is still in Camera Roll and other is in Edited album.  I have deleted the one photos I had in each and they show empty .  However the photos are still coming up as Wallpaper.  Also I do not have camera icon in bottom right corner.  I have a Picture frame that still brings up the two pictures I deleted.  I tapped the screen and nothing changes it all stays blank except for two pictures.  How do I get rid of them and get back to normal.
    Thanks,
    Theolddog

    Sorry Guys, I just found the "reset button" and reset all.  Everything is back to where it supposed to be and normal.  I had been trying for two days to fix and I was freaking out nothing was working.  Sorry, I now know betteer.  Thanks, Theolddog

  • Updated to new IOS7 how do I close out open apps running in the background?

    I just updated my IPhone 5 to IOS7 and now I cant delete open apps running in the background....I click the home button twice and it shows my open apps but I cant delete them....anyone know how to close these apps?

    You would need to swipe up on the app screen shot.

  • HT201335 I tapped the home button twice, saw the apps, scrolled left to right, still do not see the air play icon

    I am trying to mirror my iPad 2 with my Apple TV .  I hit the home button twice, scrolled through the app icons but still do not see the air play icon? I did check to confirm that both devices are on the same network.

    Yes they are both on the same network and I enabled air play on the TV. I finally located the icon on my iPad last night and succeeded in mirroring. It seems the instructions from apple were confusing me. They said tap the home button twice and then scroll to the right. The icon however is on the left side of the screen and shows as what I would call a button as opposed to an icon, located among the buttons of a mini player. Anyway, found it last night and now am enjoying the mirroring feature. Thanks for all the help.

  • I made a picture collage in pages from the pictures in iPhoto.  You used to be able to print and then say save as a jpeg to iPhoto and that option is gone.  How do you turn your document into a jpeg now.

    I made a picture collage in pages from the pictures in iPhoto.  You used to be able to print and then say save as a jpeg to iPhoto and that option is gone.  How do you turn your document into a jpeg now?

    If you chose print, you can save as PDF. If you open the saved PDF in preview, you can save as JPEG, GIF, PNG. FYI you can crop in preview.
    Another option is you could use command + shift + 4 to do a screen shot of a specific part of of the screen.

  • How do you use "find my phone"?  I can't find it and I'm not sure I installed that app.

    How do you use "find my phone"?  I can't find it and I'm not sure I installed that app.

    The app is not necessary; that only for tracking from another iOS device. If you set up Find My iPhone, you can track the iPhone from the iCloud web site:
    icloud.com/find
    If you didn't configure Find My iPhone on the device before you lost it, then you're out of luck.

  • How do you close apps you hve looked at with the new software update?? You used to have to double click the home button and the apps would come up to delete bu that doesn't happen anymore.

    How do you close apps you hve looked at with the new software update?? You used to have to double click the home button and the apps would come up to delete bu that doesn't happen anymore.

    The apps in the multitaskbar should appear like pages on the whole display. To close them, just swipe from the bottom to the top. you can select single apps for closing, when you swipe them like you would swipe your homescreens.

  • Recently downloaded Guitar Tuner app, didn't like it..deleted app..everytime I open apps icon it's banner is still there preventing me from accessing any other apps..how do I clear it away completely?

    Recently downloaded Guitar Tuner app, didn't like it..deleted app..everytime I open apps icon it's banner is still there preventing me from accessing any other apps..how do I clear it away completely? Has anyone else had this experience..any help in clearing this hiddering problem would very much appreciated

      I spotted this sollution from another user in relation to a similar problem:
    Quit the app then reset the iPad.
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then 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.
    this work a treat..thanks to whoever it waas who originally posted this!

  • I cant use my contacts in my iphone. the contacts icon dont open. How can I use it?

    i cant use my contacts in my iphone. the contacts icon dont open. How can I use it?

    Your daughter must have signed into your iCloud account, perhaps when she updated her phone.  You can confirm this by going to Settings>iClloud on her phone and seeing if she is using the same iCloud ID.
    To fix this you would need to migrate her phone to a separate iCloud account.  To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos that she wishes to keep on your phone to her camera roll by opening her my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tapping the share icon (box with upware pointing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.
    Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone.  This only deletes the account from her phone, not from iCloud; it won't effect your device(s).  When you delete the account you will be asked if you want to keep or delete the iCloud data from her phone.  If she needs to migrate a copy of the data to her new account, choose Keep; otherwise, choose Delete.  Then sign back in with a separate Apple ID to create her new account and if migrating data to the new account, choose Merge when prompted.
    Once she is on a separate account, if she migrated a copy of the data to her new account you can go to icloud.com from your computer, sign into her new iCloud account and delete your data from her account.

  • Cannot Start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook Window. The set fo folders cannot be opened. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profil

    Cannot Start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook Window. The set fo folders cannot be opened. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)
    OK. This is a new outlook setup on a laptop. The mail account is on a MS Exchange Server 2010. The user can log on to their laptop no problem with their AD login and password. To setup the outlook profile we have checked the name OK. When we click finish
    and try to start outlook we get the above error message. It is driving me pots as I have tried also of things. I have tried to connect without catching the files. The error message then says that the Exchange Server is down, yet we checked the name OK and
    I can log on to the MS Exchange server and see the setup.
    What else is it that I need to look at as I have tried everything. I will add that they one service I see not running is the Exchange RPC service. If I try to start it, it fails saying Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services
    or programs.
    What can I do?

    The major cause of this problem is a corrupted Navigation Pane settings file – profilename.xml, where “profilename” is the name of your Outlook profile. A good sign that the
    file is corrupted is when the size of the file is shown 0 KB. No one knows the precise reason why this takes place, but all versions of Outlook from 2003 to 2013 may get affected.
    Other causes may be when you run Outlook in the compatibility mode, or if you are using a profile generated in an older Outlook version, or if the Outlook data file (.pst or .ost)
    was removed or damaged as the result of faulty uninstallation or reinstallation of MS Outlook.
    Follow the steps given below to resolve this problem
    1. Recover Navigation Pane configuration file
    2. Repair your Outlook PST file using Inbox Repair tool
    3. Create a new Outlook profil and import data from the old PST file
    4. Turn off Compatibility Mode
    5. Start Outlook in Safe Mode
