HT201365 How do I close my apps with new upgrade?  It doesn't work when you double  click home button and hold until the x comes?

I just upgraded to new iOS 7.2 and I don't know how to close out my applications? It doesn't work with the double click of home button and simply holding until the x shows?

Tap Home button twice then use an  upward swipe on the preview to close the app

    How do I close out apps with iOS 7? I use to double click home button and hold down each - app.

  • When I double click Home button, all of my apps don't show in the bar -- only the four that reside there. Did a reset last night to fix the Home button (it sort of works now) but now this. Any ideas on why I can't do the fast app switch now?

    When I double click Home button to change apps quickly, only the four apps that reside on the task bar show. All of my apps would show prior to my reset of the iPad last night (to fix the Home button). Any ideas on how to fix?

    My undertanding is that when you double-click the home button, the apps that are shown are those that are currently active.  The reason you are not seeing all of them is that not all of them are active.  Before you can access an app in the multitask bar, it has to be turned on first.  As a test, try accessing the Notes application.  Return to the home screen by clicking the Home button ONCE.  Once the home screen appears, double click the home button to bring up the multitasking bar.  The Notes app should be on the far left.

    Those are not necessarily running. It's a list of previously opened apps for the most part. You can flick the cards upwards to get rid of them.

  • Yesterday double clicked home button and all of my apps disappeared; cannot shut off i-pad, and syncing it does not restore apps or enable me to use it again. Help!

    See if this fixes things.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Re ios7 update for ipad2. How do you stop all sites showing when you double click bottom button?

    Re ios7 update - when I double click bottom button all sites visited come up as you scroll across screen. How can I ensure that no sites are shown or how do I delete sites visited?

    Double clicking the Home button brings up multitasking. These are all the apps that are open in the background. You can close them by swiping the app preview page up to the top of the screen.
    If you mean Safari websites, tap the tabs button (bottom right) and swipe each tab to the left to close them.

  • My IPhone4 is secretly using alot of data even though I have double tapped Home button and closed all the apps running in the background.

    My Iphone4 is secretly using alot of data even after I have double tapped the home button and closed all the apps running in the background.
    This just started happening 3 days ago.
    When im out of home, the phone drains battery REALLY FAST, I lose 6% battery in 5 minutes.
    The phone also heats up and feels very warm after a few minutes.
    When I turn the data plan off, it becomes normal again, like I lose 1% every 30minutes even while listening to mp3.
    I can conclude that its secretly using the 3G at an alarming rate which causes the battery to die so quickly
    I have uploaded 2 pictures showing what happens before and after I turn on my WIFI.
    Notice that the ping spikes like crazy on my home network once I turn on my WIFI on my IP4
    WIFI OFF:
    WIFI ON:
    I hope someone can assist me with this!
    Thanks!!

    There is a common misconception that closing an app on the Quick Launch screen (it's real name) also kills the app's background process. This is not the case. First, all built in apps (mail, contacts, calendar, game center, notes, reminders, Genius, Photo Stream, etc) continue running their background processes even if killed in the Quick Launch screen. For apps from the App Store killing the foreground process also gives the app the option of killing its background process, but it doesn't have to. In addition, any app that has Notifications enabled can restart its background process if it receives a Notification.
    iOS 7 gives the user more control over background processes; you can selectively allow or deny any app to run in background. As you apparently have not upgraded this option is not available to you.
    As Chris has already told you, there's an app on your phone that is stuck in a loop. As you discovered killing foreground processes did not resolve the problem. One trick that sometimes resolves this is to let the battery run down until the phone shuts off and will not restart. Then charge to 100%.

  • HT201365 how do I now close apps the old way of double clicking Siri button and touching the app no longer works

    how do I now close apps the old way of double clicking Siri button and touching the app no longer works

    There isn't currently a way to edit or control which apps appear in the 'open in' list apart from deleting (or deleting and reinstalling) apps - you could try leaving feedback and maybe in the future we'll have some sort of control : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

    Double-tap on the Home button. You will see a preview of the app above the actual icon. Slide the preview up to kill it.

  • HT201365 How do I close open apps to save my battery with the ios7

    How do i close open apps to save my battery using ios7

    Double click the home button to bring up the multitask bar, hold one app icon until they all start to shake, hit the little minus icon to close the app. Click on the home button to get back to the home screen again.
    In most of the cases deleting the mail account and setting it up again can cure the battery drain. There have been cases in which the mail app got stuck trying to connect to the server over and over again, causing the drain.

  • How do I close out apps with the new o.s.?

    It had been a while since I updated my O.S. now with the new one I can't figure out how to close my apps. to save my battery. I used to double click the home button and then hold down on the apps till they "wiggled" and I was able to close them. I can't seem to do that now since I updated.

    Double click the home button, and then swipe up the thumbnails that appear on top of the icons

  • HT201365 How do I close off apps that I have open?

    Help I don't want my battery to waste away!

    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). Now most of the time, unless the app is stuck and running crazy, it shouldn't hurt your battery too much to have apps open; the OS is smart enough to only allocate resources to the active apps.
