Lock certain applications

I was wondering if there's an application or something that I can use to lock certain apps. Just like a passcode because i don't want it restricted and I don't want a passcode on my whole phone. I know there's an app called lockdown from cydia but I don't want to jailbreak my iphone. I don't think apple makes an app for this right now, is there a way to suggest an application?? Please help!!

No, there is not. You can suggest features to Apple:

Locking certain applications

I want to password protect access to some applications and allow other people to use my iPad to play games etc. Any advice?

Sorry, but you cannot lock Pages. There may be other word processing apps that allow you to lock documents, though I don't know of any.
For calendars and mail, there is no practical way to do that and still allow someone to use your iPad unless you can access your calendars and mail via a web interface, in which case you can just use a web browser for your mail and schedule, and log out of your mail/calendar site when you're done.

Protect certain applications against certain developers

Dear Experts
If there is an administrator of apex workspace and he needs to protect or lock certain applications in the workspace against some developers or users of the workspace.
Can this be achieved in current apex release? If No what is the workaround?
Thanks in advance for any help you provide
Regards
Mahmoud

No. Within the Builder there is no user/application access control below the workspace level: workspace developers have access to all applications within that workspace.
If No what is the workaround?
No workaround, just standard APEX practice: if it's necessary for developers to be restricted to working on certain applications, then the workspace must contain only those applications the user can work on.
At runtime, access to applications can be controlled using authentication and authorization schemes.

Iphone lock for certain applications.

How do i lock my certain applications such as email sms whatsapp etc i have tried doing it by enabling restrictions but the applications do not lock.I have to prevent misuse of my phone.Pls answer me.

The iPad is designed as a single user device. You can't lock individual apps. To prevent people from "misusing" your iPad, put a lock code on it.

My iPad will not play sounds on certain applications. ie: if I click on a video from FB sound will not play. If I go to YouTube and play the same video sound will play. Also certain games will no longer play sounds. They always played sounds but now won't

My iPad will not play sounds on certain applications. ie: if I click on a video from FB sound will not play. If I go to YouTube and play the same video sound will play. Also certain games will no longer play sounds. They always played sounds but now won't now. I just went to my churches web site to watch live service and again no sound. I grabbed my dads iPad and the sound works fine.

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Keychain: How to enable automatic access for certain applications?

I have gotten really tired of Adium and Skype asking for the keychain password every time I reboot the machine, and Quicksilver neeing my system password all the time when installing updates.
How do I enable automatic access to the keychain and system password for certain applications, but not all?
PowerBook G4, 1.5 Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Hi, Bjørn.
A. You wrote: "I have gotten really tired of Adium and Skype asking for the keychain password every time I reboot the machine..."There are two things to check. You'll use Keychain Access — in the Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities folder — for both.
One key point to note before you begin: If the affected account was created under Jaguar, it's default keychain will have the same name as the account's short name. Accounts created under Panther or later have the default keychain name of "login." The user's default keychain is always highlighted in bold in the Keychains list in Keychain Access. All of the instructions in Mac Help regarding keychain assume the accounts were created under Tiger and always refer to keychain "login."
Here are the two issues to check and correct:
1. The affected account may have its keychain preferences set so that the keychain locks automatically after a period of inactivity or after sleep mode:1.1. Select the user's default keychain.
1.2. Click Edit > Change Settings for Keychain "keychain_name."
1.3. Deselect the checkbox next to "Lock after __ minutes of inactivity", if selected.
1.4. Deselect the checkbox next to "Lock when sleeping", if selected.
1.5. Click Save.2. The affected account's login password and keychain password are different. Set the keychain password on that account to be the same as the account's login password. See “Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Changing your keychain password.”
Once those steps are taken, if an application requests access to the keychain, click Always Allow.
Note that if you update applications, i.e. install later versions, you may be asked once to confirm the new version's access to your keychain. That's a standard security precaution.
B. You wrote: "...Quicksilver neeing my system password all the time when installing updates."That cannot be prevented if that application is installed in the Macintosh HD > Applications folder using an installer, such as the Mac OS X Installer. Authentication is required if an installer will add or change files in either Applications or other System-related folders.
Good luck!

How come I can't use the back gesture in certain apps with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion OS?

How come I can't use the back gesture with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion? I figured out that in Safari i have to use a 1 finger swipe to go back a page instead of 2 fingers like i used to do in Snow Leopard. But apps like iTunes and iPhoto and i can't do that. Any ideas? is there a setting im missing to make this work? It works in Safari but not any other applications, so im assuming theres no setting for this. Just want to know if this is just a bug that will be fixed in the next update or if its something I can fix now. Any help would be appreciated because its kind of annoying. Other than this minor issue I love Lion. Full screen apps are unbelievable.

Why doesn't my macbook pro let me update certain applications? It says "You have updates available for other accountsTo update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.

Why doesn't my macbook pro let me update certain applications? It says "You have updates available for other accountsTo update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.

it's also likely that you used two different apple IDs to purchase apps. if that's the case then you simply have to log out of your app store, and log into the other account to update the apps.
from experience it's not possible to syncronise purchased content from two different accounts. but you can always give Apple a call.

Assume I back-up my computer using Time Machine and then decide to uninstall a certain application. If I later decide that I'd prefer to have that uninstalled application on my computer, can I simply restore it from my back-up, or must I go through the entire install process again?

Nobody can help? :(

Creative Cloud Desktop fails to download certain applications.

So basically what happens is I am able to click the button, and the progress bar appears, but it doesn't progress past 0%, and no 'X' button appears next to it. If I quit during this period, Creative Cloud Desktop doesn't load up again, and I'm forced to restart.
So far this has happened only with certain applications. Premiere Pro (which I managed to install after a lot of tries) and just now SpeedGrade. Please help!

Nevermind. I set the program rules on my firewall from Auto to Allow and that worked.

Certain applications overwork my macbook and the fan goes crazy. Is there a fix or solution for this?

I purchased a 13.3" MacBook Pro in February of 2010. About a month later, I began to notice that certain applications that don't require much, Safari, MSWord, iTunes, were causing the fans to kick in at crazy speeds and the base of the computer was too hot to touch. Is there a patch or fiz for this, or should I return my macbook for a new?

Try closing the App Store app via the iPad's multitasking bar and see if it works ok when you re-open it :
iOS 7 : double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the App Store app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
iOS 6 and below : from the home screen (i.e. not with the App Store 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the App Store app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't fix it then you could try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

How can I re-download certain applications that did not download properly?

I downloaded the creative suite but some apps such as photoshop and dreamweaver did not download properly. When I go to open the application I get the error message saying it may be damaged or incomplete. Is there a way to go back and download just the certain applications that did not download properly?

In case of perpaptual license you can download the trial of presently avialable CS6 software from http://adobe.com/downloads and activate the software by using the serial number and Adobe ID.
Trial of previous versions (CS3, CS4, CS5, CS5.5) can be downloaded from : http://prodesigntools.com

Why do certain applications open automatically

why do certain applications open automatically?

If you're using Lion, and the apps open automatically when you start up/log in, it's down to one of two things. Either
a) you had the application open when you shut down last time, or
b) you have that application set to open automatically.
If you don't want (a) happening, either quit the application completely before you shut down, or turn off all app resuming through System Preferences - General - untick "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps".
If the apps re-open even if you quit them before shutting down, check System Preferences - Accounts - Login Items. Delete any programs from the list that you don't want auto-launching when you log in.
