My iPad is low on memory and it says to turn off apps running in background . How do I do that

Hello Skittles1202
It sounds like more of the storage of your iPad is full. Plug it into your computer and check in iTunes or on your iPad go to Settings > General > Usage and it will sort out in order of what is taking up the most space. Once you figure that out you can either delete what is not needed or import any photos that you may have to your computer. If you want to close out any application that you may have open previously, then double tap the home button and then swipe up on any app that you want to close

Seems the battery life "range" on my iPhone 4 is eroding and not holding charge, unlike when I first bought it. I have "turned off" apps running in background...

HI my mac is low on memory and i want to erase some apps that i don't use in the iTunes media folder that i have already eraed from itunes

HI my mac is low on memory and i want to erase some apps that i don't use in the iTunes media folder that i have already eraed from itunes
how do i erase them without going one by one checking names???

There is no way to automatically select the unused apps. But, you can go go through your apps library and hold the command key as you select each app you want to delete to get them all at once.

My iPad was working perfectly fine and then it just turned off and wont turn back on. it had around 60% battery what do i do?

i need some help. my iPad was working perfectly fine about 20mins ago and then it just turned off and wont turn back on. its was at about 60% when it stoped working so i have ruled out the fact that its dead. ive tryed turning it back on but it wont please help.

Reboot 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
EDIT - sorry TeeKnows. I was too slow on the draw. My apologies.

How to turn off apps running in the background on the iPad mini

I am a long time iPhone and Mac user. We just purchesed a new iPad mini. I can't seem to get the apps running in the background to turn off. They won't wiggle, neither will they let me swipe up to remove them. Is there a preference in settings I need to turn on?
Thanks!

Close apps
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

IPad 3 I can't turn off apps running in the background like I could before

Hi updated to new os a few days ago and now I can't seem to turn off all the apps I've opened. I use to press the button twice then hold my finger on an app and they would start jiggling so I could delete them. This is running very slow now. Any one out there know the new trick.

Double tap the Home button, then slide upwards on the App Preview (not the App Icon). Tap the Home button again to return to normal screen.

I somehow managed to delete the app store tab on my homepage and now I cannot download any apps. Anyone know how I can get that back? Thanks

Hi. I somehow managed to delete the app store tab on my iphone homepage. Anyone know how I can get that back? I just got this and now I can't download any apps! Thanks!

You cannot delete that icon. More than likely it's just been moved to another page. You can use Spotlight to search for it if necessary.

My brothers iPod shows it's syncing from iTunes, he isn't syncing anything though, and it won't turn off or on either. How do I fix this??

When my brother plugs in his iPod touch, it shows he's syncing from itunes. He isn't syncing anything though and we've tried charging it but it won't turn off or on.
We tried to turn it off but it wouldn't do anything. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Hi, I'm a bit low on memory and I can't update the iOS. I need to move some photos off the iPad but I don't want to transfer them to a pc, I'd prefer to transfer them to iCloud and leave them there. Is that possible?

Yes, you could, because in this case you would have something like a backup in the cloud. BTW, personally I also like Flickr. Flickr offers you 1 TB (1000 GB) of free storage and automatic upload for photos since iOS 7 (it is a very attractive offer, at least for me)

Google Earth low on memory and crashing

I'm using an ipad Air with maximum storage and latest iOS. Google Earth, previously a reliable app, is now consistently reporting low in memory and quickly crashing when in Stree View.
I've tried rebooting with no change.
Groan. I see Safari is still not working properly when composing messages here. Seems worse than last iOS version. Autocorrect not reliable and my KB shortcuts no longer work, e.g. To enter my Sig. And those misplaced caps...

"Bridge is running low on memory and should be restarted" error

I am running Bridge CS4 on a DELL T-1650 with plenty of hard drive space. I am having trouble with indexing / caching files. My computer is connected to a large office server with a large amount of files that I need to be able to search. I recieve a "Bridge is running low on memory and should be restarted" error each time I attempt to index the files on the server drive. I have tried Purge and Cache, set the cache memory slider to max. This is a very large amount of files (TB ) to index /cache. I leave the computer running overnight to allow ample time, I nothing on my TB hard drive , and have 16GB of available RAM. Any ideas?

…My computer is connected to a large office server…
Aha! Working over a network is not supported by Adobe.
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

What is application memory and why does my macbook pro keep running out of it?

what is application memory and why does my macbook pro keep running out of it?

There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
          A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
          Not enough memory for your usage pattern
Please note that if the cause is a memory leak, installing more memory will not help. That's likely if you already have more than 4 GB of memory. Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
These instructions are for OS X 10.9 and later. Some details may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
          View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
from the menu bar.
If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, reset the printing system. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
"Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.
