After the update I don't know how to close running apps? I recall double clicking the main button then hold one app until they begin a jiggling motion. But that no longer works.

How do close running apps?

You still double tap the home button and the apps are lined up across the screen. Swipe up on the app preview thumbnail - drag it up off of the screen - and that will close the app.

How to close running apps on iPod touch with new update

I can't figure out how to close apps to save battery life since this update. Any resources on how to operate the iPod touch with the new update would be appreciated.

Double click the Home button and swipe the thumbnail of the app (not the app icon) upwards to delete/close the app.
That is included in the manual

HT4528 Just installed iOS7 on my iphone 4. How do you close your apps, so they do not run battery down so fast?

Just installed iOS7 on my iphone 4. Everything is completely different.... How do I close open apps at the end of the day, so the battery does not run down as fast? It was very easy before, but doesn't work the same way now. Help

Thank you for your assistance. I watched the tutorial and it also helped me. I am sure there will be a lot of questions in the future as many of us update. So far all my apps seem to be working fine, so I am fine with it. This too could change. Thanks for your help.

Close all apps ios7

iOS 6 you double clicked home, held any icon and that would allow you to close all running apps at once.
Did Apple really forget this out of iOS7 ?
Oh and no, I'm not talking about the 3 finger swipe up to close 3 apps, I'm l king for the close ALL apps at once feature.
Tks

As I recall, tap and hold on an icon in the try (iOS 6 and below) made them wiggle and you could tap the X to close one at a time - no?

Do I have to run Apps in b/round? - How to "Close an App" quickly?

1. Is there any way to "toggle off" background Apps? I have no need to keep newspapers, books, games, etc running in the back only to have to "Double tap the home button, hold the icon till it wiggles, tap the negative sign, close the bottom panel" - useless wate of time.
2. If no, any shorter way to close an app other than the method described above?
How about just flick up on the Home screen to get to the running apps bar (what do you call that bar anyway?) instead of having to click the home button twice?
(You wouldn't believe how much noise that stupid button makes when it clicks when your partner is sleeping and you are reading in bed!)
3. At the very least can't Apple just make the background Apps already have the little negative sign on them when they come up (like the close program "x" PC programs now have)? It would at least save the "hold till it wiggles step".
4. Don't even get me started on the Mute button that only mutes system sounds (which I have turned off anyway) yet makes be do a whole bunch of steps to be able to screen lock! Can you say "user selectable function"?

And unnecessary. Maybe once/week you would want to enter the multitasking tray just in case you have a thousand or so apps in the background.

Again, there's no reason to close an app.

I have to repeat that there's no reason to close an app.

I don't have the time to give all the reasons why that would be undesirable.
+4. Don't even get me started on the Mute button that only mutes system sounds (which I have turned off anyway) yet makes be do a whole bunch of steps to be able to screen lock! Can you say "user selectable function"?+
Don't get me started regarding an issue where Apple did exactly what I had hoped they would do.

My delete button in my to do's closes the app. I've closed all the background running apps and have restarted my phone and even tried syncing to my iTunes. It's driving me nuts. Please help!

Will not complete a sync without crashing and saying cannot read to the device or something to that effect.
That sounds familiar.
Just doublechecking ... have you worked through the suggestions from the following document in the course of your troubleshooting to date?

(The stuff I was worried about in my initial reply has since been documented in its own troubleshooting document. Some of the symptoms of that are covered in: [iTunes for Windows: System restarts, blue screen, or quits unexpectedly when accessing iTunes Store|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3441] )

hello, my eyesight issue happens occasionally, from time to time i run multiple apps that use the isight camera. when i close each app the isight camera's green light is still active. When that happens the only way to stop the isight camera is to reboot.
Is there a way to use activity monitor to identify and kill the process controlling the isight? My apologies in advance if this sounds windows (task manager) like.
Thanks

(Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD." Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)

Is there a way to close background apps on my iPhone 3G running iOS 4.2.1? I'm getting crazy!!!

I'm running iOS 4.2.1 on my iPhone 3G and it's getting very slow because i cant close the apps that i finished to use (can't close bg apps). If you would help me i'll appreciate il very much

It's likely running slow because of iOS4, not because of apps being open. Standard troubleshooting...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
If still a problem restore from your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
You'll most likely need to restore as new to get it running as good as it can. A 3G will never run as good on iOS4 as it did on iOS3.

Is the Nike Running app not compatible with ios7?

I downloaded the Nike+ Running app - but I can't get it to open?
Anyone else having a similar issue? Is the app not compatible with ios7?

Go back to the itunes store and look at the user ratings/comments for that app. If it's not compatible with IOS 7, there will be many postings from users that indicate that.

THANKS for your prompt reply Bluetooth is off in my laptop and IPhone.. and in fact the reset is the only thing that can make it back to normal. But for a lil while.

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.

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...
