Launching Google Mobile App turns music off -- any way to prevent that?

If I launch the Google Mobile App when the Music app is playing the music is paused. Is there any way to stop that from happening?
I have fiddled with all settings related to notifications, sounds, etc. but I still have this issue.
Any suggestions appreciated.
thanks

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes, voice search is turned off and I still have the issue. I have also tried turning off all notifications and sounds related to Google Mobile App but it still turns the music off when launched. It appears to be a glitch in Google Mobile App – or it may be a "feature not a bug" intended to get you to focus on your email rather than listen to music. ]
I discovered a pretty simple workaround. If you place a Safari bookmark for your Gmail inbox or Google Talk, etc, directly on the home screen, and access your inbox by tapping the bookmark rather than the Google Mobile App icon, then the music playing is not affected.
So the Google Mobile App icon shows me how many new messages I have, but I tap the the Gmail inbox icon to go to my inbox. That solves the problem for now.

  • Problems with Google Mobile App in 3.0

    My Google mobile app is not working correctly in 3.0... it won't register motion sensing for voice search (and yes, motion sensing is turned on in the settings menu and the accelerometer works fine in other apps). I have tried removing and re-installing the app several times, to no avail. Is anyone else having this problem? Anyone have any ideas as to a solution?

    I've noticed the same issue since the update to 3.0. Generally Google will not react at all with the tones/chimes to let me know that it's 'paying attention', at least for several attempts of raising it to my ear (though the screen will darken as if on a phone call so accelerometer is doing its part). Then (sometimes) it will inexplicably begin to behave properly for search after search. I've found only two mentions of this issue in the discussions (surprised there aren't more considering it must be related directly to the update), neither with a solution, but at least I know it's not my imagination.

  • Google Mobile App Issues - Localhost error

    Hi guys,
    Whenever I go into the Google Mobile App and then click on one of the google products underneath it, it opens the browser and says localhost on the address bar
    and a Cannot Open Page error.
    Any ideas why this is happening?
    Thnx in advance

    Haven't seen that but try resetting your iPhone 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.

  • Google Mobile App broken

    Since 5/2/11, the Google Moble app returns results in which the page links are not active, i.e. they will not open.  Normally they either open from with the Google Mobile app, or open within the s60 browser (shown as "Web" in the applications folder).  This is clearly an external problem at Google, since nothing has changed on our phones (to our knowkedge, anyway).  How can we contact Google?
    Solved!

    Try posting your issue on the google mobile forum:

    With this being a google issue there's nothing we can do to help you here. If you have an old discontinued model, like the N79, your best option is to use an alternative method to search such as opera mobile/mini.

  • About Google mobile app

    I am reading alot about the Google Mobile App that seems to be in a lot of itunes stores but is not in Sweden. Is there a way to get it anyway from maybe another store or will it come soon to Sweden as well?

    WHen you access Google from the iPhone, it automatically reads that you are on a mobile device and puts you into the Mobile Google site...
    The App they created basically is just a fancy way of getting to that same link with some cosmetic improvements.

    We have three iPhones but one Apple ID because I pay for the acct whenever we buy Apps or music.  However, it's frustrating that when we share iCloud it merges our notes and contacts even if we say "DO NOT MERGE."  I've also lost my notes but could not recover them even if I did a restore.

    You can share the same iTunes ID on all your devices and still have different iCloud accounts with different IDs on them.  The ID you use for iTunes does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.
    If you want to migrate your devices to separate accounts, on the devices that will be moving save any photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll.  Also email any synced notes to yourself so you can recreate them in the new account.  Finally, if you are syncing any iWork documents with iCloud, go to the iWork app settings and turn off iCloud syncing.
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Once the phones are all on separate accounts you can  then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want from each account.

    Are you leaving the box unchecked to Manually manage music & videos? You don't need to to add anything to the iPhone.
    Simply drag the playlist to the iPhone to manually add it.

    Thanks but have tried that - When I try to restore I get a -50 error and into a loop of taking another back up.  I took a copy of the back up before the IOS upgrade and have it stored on my desk top but I cannot get Itunes to restore to that back up
    Any ideas how I can do this?

  • Last time I synced with iTunes all apps (except the originals) and all the work I'd put in them got erased. Any way to stop that?

    Last time I synced with iTunes all apps (except the originals) and all the work I'd put in them got erased. Any way to stop that?

    Your apps didn't get erased.  They're still there in your iTunes Library, you just didn't tell iTunes to sync all Apps when you synced.  You have to either choose the specific apps you want to sync or say sync all apps.

  • Hi guys. Just a quick question. My wife has a Mac Book Pro and when she is browsing the web she can use a two fingered gesture to go back to her previous page (by swiping from right to left). Is there any way to set that up on my iPad Mini. Many thanks.

    Not in the Safari browser she can't. That is not supported on the iPad. There are other mobile browsers that do have that functionality - one is iCab Mobile.

  • Is there any way to prevent iTunes from making duplicates of all my tunes?

    I've a repeating problem that iTunes duplicates my music files every time I open it. After it had made duplicates (and triplicates) of every tune, I blew away the library, went through my music folder and got rid of all the dupe files, and reimported it into iTunes. I haven't used iTunes since, but when I opened it today to start rebuilding my playlists, it is again making dupes of my files. When I open it, it says it is "Updating iTunes library...', and after it finishes there are more copies of files already there.
    Any way to prevent this?

    Yes the 2 main ways are with an ipod and external drive. Apple covers doing it with an ipod but you can follow the same steps, just skip afew http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173
