HT4211 Do the multi-tasking apps use up a LOT more user MB's?

Does multi-tasking apps cause you to use a LOT more user MB's?  If so, can I make it stop?  I have been triple charged by my service provider by email messages and did not even know anything was running?
Please help.

Double-clicking the Home button displays a list of recently used apps. These apps are not necessarily actively in use, open, or taking up system resources. They will instantly launch when you return to them. Certain tasks or services can continue to run in the background.

  • HT4211 I would like clarification on the official intended usage of the multi-tasking switcher.  Specifically, should apps be regularly closed (minus bubble) out of this list, or is the close feature closer to OS X's force quit.

    It is not really necessary to close apps from there. It is more like a recently used apps list. You can close them from there if a problem occurs with the app, and there are only a few apps that will remain running when you close them with the Home button. You can see information about the multi-tasking bar in the User Guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf

  • An easy way to quit all multi-tasked apps at once?

    Running the SpeedTest app here in Japan I noticed the 3G data speeds improved dramatically (especially upload speeds) after one-by-one quitting all my multi-tasked apps and then restarting SpeedTest by itself.
    I had like 20+ apps going at the time. Most of them were probably not contributing to the problem, but still, I don't know which ones.
    Anyway, my question is, is there an easy way to force all the apps in the multi-task drawer to quit without one-by-one holding each icon down and pressing the "-" mark?
    Thanks,

    That's an informative article, Johnathan. Thanks.
    It still doesn't quite explain what I was seeing though.
    With all the apps in the hidden dock my 3G data speeds were incomprehensibly slow. Doing a full restart didn't help. This is a critical point.
    Yet when I got rid of all the entries in the hidden dock my 3G data speeds went up to somewhat respectable speeds again. In particular, what appeared to be an upload cap of 64 kbps disappeared and I was seeing upload speeds of about 800 kbps using SpeedTest.
    So how to explain that? Just coincidence? Could it be that since that some apps, when the iPhone restarts, do start doing some things in the background again?
    There should be some logical explanation for what I am seeing.
    And I guess the answer to my original question is there is no way to remove all the apps in the hidden doc at once, is there?
    Thanks,

  • How do I see the multi-task menu bar?

    I am trying to find a way to stop the app "Magellan Road Mate" when I am finished. Seems simple, however, there is no provision for turning the app off. Magellan says to go tap and hold the icon in the multi-task menu bar until a - sign appears then tap the minus sign and that will turn the app off. Being among the technically "near illiterate", I can't seem to find the "Multi-Task Menu Bar".
    Can anyone help me out? Any direction will be appreciated. It is embarrasing to be walking through a lobby in a hotel and suddenly your hip speaks...."recalculating route..."

    Get back to the Home screen, double tap the Home button and the icons along the bottom will turn into the multitasking bar. Tap and hold one of these till they wiggle with a minus button on them. You an scroll sideways to find the apps you wish to close. Press the Home button once to remove the button then once again to return to the Home screen.
    If you have an Apps running when you double tap it will not appear in the multitask bar till you exit to the home screen or change apps.

  • My speaker doesn't work when I try to listen to music or open up a quick time file, however they seem to work perfectly when I listen to a voice memo (p.s. the volume slider disappears in a song page and even in the multi tasking bar)

    Thanks for your solution, it wasn't quite what solved the problem but i remembered that i had a bit of salt water on my phone recently and spraying the charging port with an anti-oxide spray solved my problem, do you mind if i ask, how is the charging port related with the volume or/and speakers?

  • How much data does the apple maps app use per hour ?

    hello,
    i would like to know, if somebody could give me a rough number of how much the Apple Maps app uses per hour for navigation ?

    Apple's Maps app uses vector graphics, so it doesn't have to download data everytime your view changes, & also has an offline mode...you can download quite a large area over WiFi & then use this cache to navigate.
    So, I really wouldn't worry too much about its data usage. Most tests I've read indicate it uses about 80% less data than Google Maps.

  • I have two iphones using the same computer and I can only find a backup for my iphone and not my girlfriends.  She uses itunes a lot more often then I do but cant find it

    I have two iphones using the same computer and I can only find a backup for my iphone and not my girlfriends.  She uses itunes a lot more often then I do but cant find it.  Really need some help.  Shouldnt her apps and details be saved online in the itunes store?  Even her apps wont appear

    If you create an Apple ID for your daughter, signing out of the existing Apple ID with the iTunes & App Store on her iPhone will not change anything on your iPhone.
    All apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps.
    If she starts using her Apple ID to download apps, when there is an app update for an app on her iPhone that was downloaded with the current shared Apple ID, she will need to use that Apple ID and password to download the app updates.

  • Does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

    does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

    Several ways to get similar results.  Image > Adjustments > Posturize with low values similar to what you'd use n Cutout.  This is the most flexible way I can think of as you keep the image in RGB mode with layers intact.  A more radical approach would be to reduce bit depth using Indexed Colour.  You'll need to experiment with settings, try changing Forced to Primaries, and Matte to Foreground Color.  There's no going back from this route, although you can change the mode back to RGB to re-enable layers, adjustment layers etc.
    A nice thing about the Filter gallery filters is that you can change the layer to a Smart object with all the control that gives you.
    Now if only this forum could filter out bizarre content.

  • Custom Report: the list of IT ROLES of one or more users

    Hi all,
    I want to do a custom report that gives me the list of IT ROLES of one or more users. Anyone could give me some guidelines?
    Thanks

    according to the docs... if I interpret them right
    getRoles returns roles assigned to the context given, this is wise since it is usualy used to check if the current user invoking the call has the rights in a form, workflow or similiar...
    Adding the "accountId" string as a second argument would invoke this form of the getRoles
    getRoles
    public static java.util.List getRoles(LighthouseContext s, java.lang.String current) throws WavesetException
    This variant allows a specific name to be included in the returned list. Used to ensure that the current value of a role may continue to be assigned even though the current admin may not have access to that role.
    I believe you should get the users view and get your info from there...
    if you try using the debug page and getObject User and the accountId, you will see the user in its full glory...
    there you can see what you might want to do I hope

  • Proble with multi-threaded app using the same connection

    have a multi-threaded app. The threads all share the
    same connection. They all do some selects / updates.
    The OS is NT 4.0 and the application server is weblogic
    Some times I am getting the error "java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: not in streaming mode"
    and some times I am getting "java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: Protocal violation
    Any Ideas?
    Regards
    Suresh

    Don't create threads.... Your threads should if they are necessary be reusable, your threads should call the connections it needs from the cache service with let's say a max number of N pools (each pool a max number of M connections), if the connection domain asked exists on cache a connection is asked for corresponding pool, if the connection domain is not on cache the less used domain is thrown away (all inner connections closed first) and substituted by the new one requested. While the pool is not full keep creating connections as the request came (and all existing connections are being held and not released), when M connections exists, a request should wait till a connection is released.
    If you can have 20 threads asking for the same connection and the max number of connections on pool is M=10, then yopur threads will wait for a connection being released. All this must be synchronized. You should set M the closest as possible to the normal number of requests you can imagine to happen the same time. You should get connection use it and release it right away if you can have a lot of requests.
    I hope this helps you.
