HT201365 How do I clear apps that are running?

How do I clear the apps that are running?  It used to be that I double click the home key and then press down on the app icon until the little red box appeared to close app.  It doesn't work that way with the iOS7 update.

When you double tap the home button you should get little windows that you can scroll (left-right) through.. If you get that screen open.. just put your thumb on the app you want to kill, then swipe up towards the top of the phone.
Let us know if this worked for you.
Cheers!

    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

  • Can someone tell me how to get my apps that are on my ipad to appear on my TV using Apple Tv

    Can someone tell me how to get my apps that are on my IPad to be viewed on my Apple TV?

    Welcome to the Apple Community Coachcad.
    Basic AirPlay: Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
    Mirroring: When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), swipe from the bottom of the screen, tap the AirPlay icon and choose your Apple TV from the list of devices (iOS 7 or better) or double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices (pre-iOS7)

  • Is there a app that will tell all apps that are running and possibly how much battery power they use?

    Is there a app that will tell all apps that are running and possibly how much battery power they use?

    You don't need an app to do this.  Here's how you get the battery info.  Go to Settings>More>Battery. This will show you all the active apps and their individual battery usage.

  • How to allow some apps that are restricted by age?

    I have the restrictions for apps on my 10 year old's ipad mini set to 9+.  There are a few puzzle-based apps that are rated 12+ that I'd like him to be able to have.  Is there a way to enable only specific apps that I specify, or, is my only option to change the restrictions to enable all apps rated 12+?  I notice with Safari, you can disable it, but then can allow specific sites that I name.  I can't seem to find that option with apps.  I'm assuming it's not possible, but thought I'd ask in case I'm missing something....Thanks!

    With apps it's all or nothing, so you can either allow all 12+ apps or none of them, you can't just allow some of them.

  • How can I find apps that are not in my local iTunes Store ?

    I am trying to find apps that we've seen on a friend's iPad however I cannot find them back in our local (South Africa) iStore.  Is it so that the European iStore has more items to download than the South African ?  Is there any way that I can get apps from another store ?  E.g. I was looking for Supermania 2, Luxor HD, RealTennis, WorldCupFever but they give no results when doing a search in iTunes...

    You can only buy content from the country in which you are located and you must have a valid credit card registered to an address in that same country.
    Only apps and books are available in South Africa and if the apps are not in your store, according to Apples terms and conditions, you cannot purchase them.

  • HT201304 How do you report apps that are incorrectly rated?

    There is an app called 'Guides for Pokémon X and Y - Videos, Walkthroughs and More!' available on the iOS app store. It is rated 4+ but has adult language (f**k). I tried contacting the vendor but never heard back.

  • How come the same apps that are available for my iPhone and my iPad are not the same as the apps in the app store on my mac

    I want some of the same apps available on my iphone and ipad2 to be available on my macbook pro app store and to be able to link them through icloud. Is this not possible? If not, why not?

    The Mac uses Mac OS X and iDevices use iOS. These are two different operating systems and the apps must be written for each operating system specifically, even when the apps go by the same name, such as the iWork apps, they are two ifferent versions of the same app for the two different platforms.
    So, as an example, Safari has been written for three different operating systems, Mac OS X, iOS and Windows. And the Safari apps, as similar as they are visually, are not interchangeable for the different platforms.

  • How to search for apps that will run on os 4.2

    How do ytou search for apps and things that will run on the older OS 4.2.1??????????

    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • With the "7" how do I close the apps that are running in the background.

    How do I close background apps?

    On the iPad (don't know about the iPhone) you can use four or five finger swipe up to access the multitasking screen to close out apps. To use this option you need to turn on Multitasking Gestures in the Settings window:
    Saves having to hit the Home button twice...
