How to close all background apps at one shot?

Can any one answer this question??

Read the article you linked to at whenwillapple.com... a more detailed explanation than I had seen anywhere else… thanks.
@Parshwanath: So if you still want to close everything, it is possible from the hidden dock (double-click home button) to hold an icon until a _red_ 'X' appears next to each one, and then tap the 'X' to manually close it. You can't close them all at once, but you can quickly go down the row until you have them all. Of course you will have to once again open an app to have it appear in the hidden dock to be able to use 'fast app switching'.
This technique is only useful if you really need to reclaim whatever little bit of memory a sleeping app occupies while waiting to be called up. I don't remember where I found this tip - just that it came from a discussion on how to free up memory, which, given the management built into iOS4, I didn't think was necessary, but I did find it helpful in making an older game behave properly on the occasions it became obstreperous. FWIW - this is on an original iPad (OS4.3.3) and I don't know if the iPad2 is different - don't think so.

  • How to close all opened apps?

    How do you close all opened apps? I do not think sliding the app card off the screen closes the app, so how do you completely close them?

    Direct answer: you can't.
    Here is what the User Guide says:
    To close an application or a screen, in Card view (see Manage
    applications in Card view), throw the card off the top of the screen. If
    cards are in a stack (see Work with stacked cards), you can only throw
    one card at a time.
    You close the apps by throwing the card away, plain and simple.
    @direstrates:  Are you asking how to kill all running apps with one command?  Only way I know how is by doing the two-finger reboot.

    When you shut down operating systems like MS Windows or Mac OS, they automatically close your active applications before shutting down, is this true for iOS 7?

    Thanks, I do appreciate your immediate response to my question.
    BUT your answers revealed an explicit controversy about background apps ... close them to save power and performance OR don't bother to close them as they are idle or inactive!
    This dispute is resolved by APPLE in the following link:

    My original question was: Is it necessary to kill background apps before shutting down my ipad to avoid any harm to the apps or the OS?

  • Feature request: please give the ability to close all background apps at once!?

    Hello. Please oh please give us the ability to close all open/running apps with one click or swipe. I, like many users, like to close running apps (much like on my computer) to keep my ipad/iPhone running fast. I know you guys say that background apps are put on pause and don't slow things down but that is simply not the case in real world usage. All the time my iPhone or iPad becomes sluggish and if I swipe 30 times to close all the apps the sluggishness goes away. I like the simple and easy to use ios, but a little more control for the user would be very beneficial. This, I would guess, is one of the main reasons one would get an android device instead, because they require for fine tune control. Giving us this feature, amoung a few others, would be a win win. The end user get more what they need, and apple steals away (or keeps) more loyal apple buyers.

    Send your suggestion to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Can I close all background apps now at once?

    Now in IOS 5, is there a way to clos all background apps at once?

    Only certain apps actually run in the background.
    The list you see when you double-click the Home button are also "Recently USed" apps and may already be closed.
    This question was asked a lot when iOS4 originally came out and the short answer I'm afraid is "no", but don't worry about them unless they're GPS apps which will drain your battery in 4 hours if left running in the background.

  • I want to know HOW to CLOSE Multiple Open Apps at ONCE. I keep mistakenly opening lots of things at one time.

    I want to know HOW to CLOSE Multiple Open Apps at ONCE. If I have many apps going at one time and want to stop fast, surely there is a way to hit like(alt-F4 in Windows) and BAM! They all go down. I need a feature like that...

    Alt+F4 in Windows only closes the active program.
    Command+Q does the same thing for Mac. Just keep hitting that key combo untill all are closed.

  • How do I close all open apps in iOS 7?

    I want to close all open apps on my iPad 2 iOS 7. I used to click twice quickly on the start button then do the same on one of the apps and they would all then appear with a minus sign whereupon I could tap each one and it would close. This doesn't happen now. How can I close open apps in iOS 7?

    Close all apps in the multi-task window
    1.Double-click the Home button.
    2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
    3. Preview will fly off the screen.

  • How do I close all the apps that are still open?

    How do I close all the apps that are still open?

    You don't need to.
    The "task bar" that Demo mentions above is not, in fact, a task bar at all - it is the Recently Used Apps list. Not all of the apps in this list are open, running or in memory.
    iOS automatically handles closing apps that are not in use, so you don't have to manually manage them.

    Double click the home button.  Swipe up toward the top of the iPhone each icon that you see over an app icon.
    When finished, single clock the home button.
    This closes each application one at a time.
    To close them all together, restore the iPhone.

  • I have two apple ID's, one with all my apps and one with only Mavericks. Will Mavericks update automatically if i'm not logged in to the apple ID I used to download it?

    I have two apple ID's, one with all my apps and one with only Mavericks. Will Mavericks update automatically if i'm not logged in to the apple ID I used to download it?

    Some things are mixed up here, seemingly...
    I seem to have two Apple ID's attached to my e-mail.
    An Apple ID is a valid email address, apparently. How can those be "attached to your email"... what email?
    Facetime will not verify my e-mail address because it is associated with the other account.
    This doesn't make sense. You can register multiple, even non-Apple-ID, email addresses and their aliases with FaceTime.
    So, maybe you can explain your problem better - what you want and the steps you've taken and what you have so far. If something doesn't work, please tell the exact error message, too.
