Is it possible to have two (2) apps open at the same time???

How can I have one app open,like FStream listening to a radio station, keep it open and then open a game to play at the same time I am listening??? can this be done some how????
please let me know.

Sorry to disappoint but the iPod touch as much as the Iphone 3Gs, cannot peform several task at once( something call background proceessing or multitasking). Somehow apple tends to stay a bit behind in things like allowing the iPod touch to do multitasking specially allowing apps to run on the background. Even though other mobile devices like the palm pre, google android, and other phones do that without any difficulty in peforming those tasks. But let's hope that apple fixes these lacking feature in future software updates... Cause it's time apple to allow for the iPod touch to run applications on the background, if they want to stay in top of technology.

Is it possible to have two Excel workbooks open at the same time but only have one show the Document Information Panel?

We are using SharePoint 2010 and Excel 2010. In SharePoint, we have created a custom content type that uses an Excel workbook template along with a Document Information Panel (DIP -- an InfoPath form) that always displays when a workbook of this custom
content type is opened. That's all working fine. However, if one of those Workbooks is open with the DIP displayed and the user opens another Excel workbook, a DIP displays for the 2nd workbook even if it's just a regular workbook,
i.e. not one of the custom content type. If the user closes one of the DIPs, both close. And if the user displays one of the DIPs again, both display.
Is there any way to separate out the DIP display for specific workbooks during the same Excel instance so that it shows in one but not in the other? Or is this just something we have to live with (and train our users on)?
Thanks in advance. Carol.

Whether the DIP shows or not is a client side toggle, not something tied to an individual workbook. So if you are using the same client instance then the DIP will display or hide based on what you did in the other workbook. YOu might be able
to create a macro that would display or hide it, but that's a lot of work for little advantage. I would train the users and live with it.

It is necessary for me to have more than one window open in Firefox, and the command (New Window) no longer works. How do I have two different websites open at the same time on separate displays?

I used to be able to open two Firefox windows at a time, with one website on one display and another website on another display. Now when I select New Window, nothing happens.

You can tear off a tab (right-click: Move to New Window) to open it in another window and resize both windows so you see them at the same time.

Help I can only have max. 3 osx apps. open at the same time ?

Help I can only have max. 3 apps. open at the same time ?
If I have 3 apps. open, and try to open a 4th. this message comes up :
The application "Mail" cannot be launched. -10810
Of cause if I'm trying to open up something else than mail, lets say iPhoto, it will say "iPhoto".
This is very weird to me, and I'm normally pretty good at solving issues myself, but I'm stuck with this one.
Please help out

I've had this quite a lot too. Do you find that under these conditions you can't load a disk image either?
At first I put this down to Rosetta taking up a lot of resources. I was running OmniWeb with a lot of pages open in the workspaces so I've switched back to Safari until OmniWeb is UB. This morning I read that having Windows file sharing switched on helps to cause this problem. I switched this off, rebooted and ran disk utility to repair disk permissions and I've been running OK since then. I've currently got 13 apps open plus Finder and Widgets. They include 2 bigguns, Eclipse/MyEclipse and Visual Paradigm for UML. It'll probably stop working now I've written that.
I run a MBP 17 with 2GB memory. My guess is that Windows file sharing does cause problems. I just hope Apple has resolved this in 10.4.7... whenever that is.

Can I have mail and contacts open at the same time

I really want to be able to have one or more iCloud Apps open at the same time; for example, I may be looking up some info on a contact or in calendar in order to mail someone. At times I have just opened a different tab, but it seems that iCloud then gets messed up.
I am running Windows 7 at work and the latest version fo Chrome.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I don't know in Chrome, but in Safari (pc or mac) you can open icloud.com twice on two different tab or windows and open one with contact and the other in Mail without messing up. What kind of mess to do you experience?
There is no other options to do what you want to do. You need to click on the little top cloud to switch from one to another.
Beside, I don't understand why even 2 open tab would help more than having to switch via the cloud icon. I may need to cut/paste some info from contact or calendar from time to time, but switch via the cloud icon is not really painfull.

Am I able to. Have two apps open at the same time? Also how do I play music while online browsing?

Is it possible to use two apps at the same time? For example having Pinterest open and listening to a playlist on YouTube? Or fact checking a "pin" from a site with safari while looking at the actual site?

You can click and drag on a tab to "tear" it out into a new window. Or you can open a new window by pressing Control+N, or by hovering over "New Tab" in the Firefox menu and then choosing "New Window" from the sub-menu that appears.

Is it possible to have two numbers that ring to the same phone? I neede a Texas direct number and a Salt Lake City direct number?

I need two phone numbers with different area codes linked to the same phone, can this be done?

You can always port a number you already have to Google Voice. The Google Voice account has to be associated with an active cell phone number and then you can have the Google Voice number ring on whichever phone you would like, even multiple phones at the same time.
When I signed up for Google Voice, I was able to choose a number from my locality. I wasn't necessarily able to get the exchange I wanted, but I certainly got the same area code. I don't know if it has changed since.

How do I have two apps open at the same time on full screen?

As above - I want to work on word and the internet at the same time. I have resized the screens to half but would like them both to be on full screen. I did manage to do this by accident once (I think) so I'm sure it can be done!!

Lion I think - it's the new mac air?

Can I have two versions of firefox at the same time?

Hi,
Probably a dumb question but can I have two versions of Firefox on my system at the same time?
The reason is because of Add Ons that are not compatible with v4. I'd like to be able to close v4 when I need to use an Add On in v3.
Thanks.

You can install them both but there are a few steps to take.
When you install Firefox 4 use the custom installation option and choose a different location to install Firefox.
In order to use both versions, you need to create a new profile for Firefox 4 (Firefox stores user data in the profile). Using the same profile with different versions can cause problems. Once you create a new profile you can copy certain data such as bookmarks and passwords between them. You can also use Firefox Sync to keep the profiles synchronized. Finally, you will need to set up shortcuts to launch the correct profile for each version.
The following links show how to do this:

Problem with multiple gmail accounts. If I open two accounts in different tabs, Firefox makes them both the same, effectively closing one of them. I would rather have both gmail accounts open at the same time.

I belong to a chorus of 100+ singers. A lot of us use gmail for our personal email. We have a google site where we share information. We log into that site as [email protected] I would like to open the chorus site in a new tab, leaving the original tab still logged in to my personal gmail account. Currently, my original tab will also get logged into the chorus account, and I will be logged out of my personal account. Why does information in one tab disturb the information in another tab? I can keep both accounts logged in if I log into one with firefox and the other in internet explorer. But I'd rather just do it with a tab, not a whole second browser.

You can look at one of these if you want to sign on with different identities at the same time:

2 apps open at the same time

Can you open another app while one is running without closing the first?
I thought this was a new feature of 3.0.

No, you cannot open two apps at the same time. You cannot run apps in the background, except for the iPod app.
The closest 3.0 feature to this is the notifications function, which pushes app notifications to your iPhone without the app running.

Is it possible to have Leopard and Snow Leopard at the same time?

If you have an Imac with an external USB HD, can you have Leopard on the HD of the iMac and install a fresh copy of SL on the HD? Would it work?

Thanks for asking, you reminded me of two things to keep in mind. Let's say you have two drives, let's call them SL and Leo. If you boot with SL all your preferences and settings are on the SL drive and if you boot with Leo, they are on your Leo drive. There's no crossover and nothing dangerous to worry about.
There are, however, two little things to think about. a) by default, when you boot with Leo your files will save to your Leo account folder and when you boot with SL they'll default to your SL account folder. This can get confusing. There are several solutions but the easy one, and the one I used, is to use DefaultFolder and set default save folders so that the file selector automatically chose my SL folder to save into.
The other issue involves Spotlight. When you switch from one OS to the other, Spotlight will try to reindex both drives. This isn't dangerous but it does bog down a slower computer. My solution was to use the Spotlight preference in Leopard and turn indexing off completely by making both drives private.

Multiple copies of apps open at the same time

It appears that some documents that have been saved between back-ups are opening from a copy of an app that is saved in Time Machine and not the applications folder.
In some menus, like in the HP scanner setup, it shows five copies of each app in the "scan to" chooser.
A little research reveals that the different apps are are stored in Time Machine backups.
Any ideas or fixes on this one.

Try ejecting your Time Machine disk and launching the misbehaving apps to see if that persuades them to launch from your internal rather than Time Machine. If the apps don't launch it would probably be a good idea to run Disk Utility and Verify your internal disk and Repair Permissions. If the internal has errors you have to repair it from the Leopard installation disk. After you boot from the Leopard DVD and pick a language pick Utilities > Disk. After you repair the disk repair permissions.
Booting from the installer DVD forces Time Machine to do a deep traversal so don't be concerned if the first backup after you reboot takes a good long time in the preparing stage.

Is it possible to have two versions of HotSync in the same PC?

I had an old and reliable Zire 31 and I got from a friend a couple of months back a TX. I was synching the TX in my office because I had my old one synching at home. Now my wife wants to use the old Zire and I'll like to synch my home stuff too. I know both versions of the HotSync sofwtare are different (6.2 for the TX and 4.1 for the Zire). Is there a way I can keep both in my PC at home without having to uninstall one of them. I think (haven't try) that installing 6.2 wipes out 4.2
Post relates to: Palm TX

It's not advisable (for your own convenience) but if you dont share the same login account on the PC, your installations on each PC account should remain hermetic from each other. Otherwise I suggest you go to PD 6.2 for both.
