Multi tasking with 5800 xm

hi everybody ...
the nokia 5800 xpress music advertises the ability to multi task, i.e. to run several features at once ... on my phone this seems to work fine, until it comes to run anything together with nokia maps ... is it at all possible to run other features (e.g. the music player) together with maps? ...
thx for your help ...

It is possible to run several apps at once on your phone, but due to limited memory and processor power it will depend on which you use. Maps, Music and Video are the heaviest users of processor power on the phone, also Music and Maps somewhat counter act each other as you don't want music covering Nav directions and vice versa, when I was using N97 I used to kill everything on the phone before I used maps.
One solution may be to install Ramblow and close everything to gain maximum Ram before starting maps and then maybe open another app afterwards, but I wouldn't use Navigation and the music player together !
Good Luck

Why has Apple decided the 3G won't have mult-tasking with the new OS 4.0

Just would like a answer if apple would re-consider enabling multi-tasking on the iphone 3G when they release OS 4.0, maybe in a limited form.
My experience is the iphone 3G will often leave applications running in the background on OS 3.x and I have to use "freememory" third party app to clean it up when the iphone becomes too slow.
This suggests to me there nothing technical why the 3G can't have multi-tasking as in away it already does do this when the applications aren't closed.
Maybe if they limit the multi tasking to 3 applications on 3G, rather then none out all, this would make me happier.

The developer response as to why FreeMemory no longer available:-
"Apple has demanded that we remove the feature to Free Memory from all our apps. We have decided to remove our existing Free Memory 1.5 and MemoryInfo 1.1 apps from sale. We have instead submitted Free Memory Lite and MemoryInfo Lite without the Free Memory feature."
So I suppose I was lucky to find the tool before Apple banned it.
It is interesting as most iphone's have 8 or 16GB of Storage RAM, but only 128MB 3G, 256 3GS of runtime RAM, and because the phones doesn't have the ability to use virtual RAM, memory is limited on iphone, this would of been a nice feature to add to OS 4.0.
My opinion is Apple decided to limit functionality so people are forced to upgrade to the latest iphone, a little cynical I suppose, but I feel is true.
The release of the OS 4.0 and not providing multi-tasking for the 3G is probably another example as it doesn't really appear to be "technically not feasible".
I feel the developers need a bill of rights, as Apple decisions to "ban" apps is too arbitrary and unfair.
Sorry for my comments about Apple policy of banning apps or limiting functionality it just my opinion, although I think it is shared by many.
To some find my comments harsh but it is in Apple interest to make all iphones the best phones in the world

Multi tasking with Front Row

Is there any way to use the Mac for other tasks while Front Row is running?
Ideally I'd run Spaces on the Mac and limit Front Row to a single Space and then be able to switch to another Space to use the mac for something else. This is not a CPU speed issue since iTunes can happily play music while the Mac is used for other stuff. It's a design decision by Apple the FR ignores Spaces and grabs the whole machine, unless anyone knows better.
Yes I could use iTunes instead, but I want the remote controlability of Front Row, yet be able to simply use the Mac while FR continues to play, then I can switch back to the FR display when finished.
Any suggestions as to how to make Front Row 'share' the Mac?

This is unfortunately not possible as Front Row is an immersive application.
I'm afraid I have no alternative solution to provide.

- Multi-tasking with Multiple Macs -

Hi,
I don't know anything about networking computers or suchlike, so I hope there's someone who can help me.
I'm thinking about connecting 2 Mini-Macs to my iMac, in order to improve the amount of work I can handle - 1 Mini-Mac to import information, my iMac to actually work on things, the other Mini-Mac to burn DVDs.
In such a setup :-
Can I switch to each Mac, to access it and start off a process ??
Transfer information between them ??
I'm sure the above isn't very difficult to sort out, and seems like a great way to be more productive without needing to spend too much extra money or take up too much desk space.
Any comments or suggestions will be gratefully recieved.
Thanks,

The goal for me is to have each machine doing something at athe same time..
..If I'm importing something into iMovie, for instance, I can't do much else with it until it's finished.
With multiple machines, I should be able to import with 1 Mac and then import something else when I'm working on the file from the 1st Mac.
Because I wouldn't want to jeapordise the file I'd be importing I wouldn't want to do anything too intensive - ergo, pass off the importing to a seperate machine.
My idea is to be able to be doing 3 things at once - as I said, importing, working and burning.
I don't need a powerhouse of a mzchine to do what I'm planning on doing, nor several screened Macs - however, I do need several processes to be ongoing at the same time.

Multi tasking with the iphone

When will we be able to make a call on the iphone while online on the internet through the edge network??

This is an EDGE network limitation which only applies when actively accessing the internet when connected via EDGE - downloading or sending email, or when downloading a website when a call is received or when placing a call.
The same limitation does not apply when connected to the internet via wi-fi, and with a 3G phone when connected to a 3G network.

Multi Tasking with "Live Messenger"

Is there any way that i can have Live messenger logged in in the background?

Methinks joker444 doesn't understand how Apps work.
The answer is no, until an App is written which itself multitasks.

Why is my iPhone 5(with iOS 8) soo slow when I double-tap for multi-task?

I have an iPhone 5 16GB, I bought it 2 years ago, and it worked perfectly. I used it with iOS 6 (the best),7 and now 8. Since the moment I upgraded to 8 (Nowadays I'm using it with iOS 8.1.1) the device starts to open the multi-task slowly, it takes about 3 seconds. I don't know what to do.
Thanks for your attention.

How do I get my 2G iPod to update to something past 4.2.1, preferably with multi-tasking, is it even possible, can I get a copy from somewhere else?

I'm trying to update to something past 4.2.1 so i can get multi tasking. Any help would be great.

4.2.1 is the latest iOS available for the iPod touch 2G.

My speaker doesn't work when I try to listen to music or open up a quick time file, however they seem to work perfectly when I listen to a voice memo (p.s. the volume slider disappears in a song page and even in the multi tasking bar)

Thanks for your solution, it wasn't quite what solved the problem but i remembered that i had a bit of salt water on my phone recently and spraying the charging port with an anti-oxide spray solved my problem, do you mind if i ask, how is the charging port related with the volume or/and speakers?

How to write to one channel of a task with multiple channels? (plus other things...)

So I have a USB-6009 DAQ. It has 12 digital output lines. I want one channel that is "Dev0\line0:10" which represents an address bus in my application. And a second channel "Dev0\line11" which represents a program enable line in my application.
I have tried creating two different tasks and adding one channel to one task and the other channel to the other task. The only task that worked was the task with "Dev0\line0:10". It was always the task containing that channel, regardless of the order of creation. So then I moved on to a different method. (I read somewhere that I should only create one task of each type. like only 1 DO task only 1 AO task etc... However I am also using the two analog ouputs to and have a task for each AO and they work just fine.)
I tried add both channels to one task. But when I needed to control only the address bus, I had to have some information for the other channel as well. This was a little trying, but I could configure it that way. But it turned out to be easier for me to just make one channel with all the lines and OR in the data for line11 with each write.
I just wondered if it was possible to write to one particular channel of a task and not the other channel? That would really be the ideal solution for me. especially if I could write multiple samples to the one channel while I left the other channel alone. Which brings up another complaint... Why does WriteMultiSamplePort only work if I use a DigitalMultiChannelWriter, and not if I use a DigitalSingleChannel writer even though my task only has one channel (and by the way I set up the channel as one channel for all lines)? A perplexing issue to be sure.
And no I can't just load all my samples into an array and write them all at once because I also have to manipulate the two analog outputs in between the various digital writes.
I am using NI DAQmx 7.5 and C#. I am trying to use the DAQ to program a digital switch, which has proven to be a real challenge. In push-pull mode there is too much ringing for the switches programming port to tolerate. But the switches interface is LVTTL, so I needed the 3.3V. When I changed to open-collector I had to use voltage dividers to drop down to 3.3V. But the rise time using open-collector is too slow for me the program the switch in serial mode, so I had to change to parallel. The switch has an 11 bit multi-plexed ADDR/DATA bus. So the DAQ I had chosen to use which had plenty of lines for the serial programming, now is strained to it's absolute limits by the parrallel interface. ARGH. The only output I am not currently using is the counter, and I'm going to need it if I ever want to read back from the switch. But first I have to seperate the ADDR/DATA bus from the CS line on the DIO lines of the DAQ. And I don't know for sure what I'm going to do about the voltage level translation when I have to go bi-directional. Maybe I can filter out the ringing in push-pull mode? Any thoughts on that?

Hi Saikey,
In most cases, you are exactly right: you can only use one task for one type of operation (i.e. only one analog input task in the same program). With the USB 6009, you can have multiple digital output tasks running at the same time. I was able to run a digital output program with two different digital output tasks configured for a USB-6009.
However, you stated that it would be better if you had everything in a single task for your application and write data to only some of the channels. The easiest way to do this is to modify your array of output data so that only the data to that one channel is changing. So, for example, if you keep writing a 0 to the channels that do not need new data nothing will change.
If you have to change your analog outputs during this program, you could create an event structure that would stop and restart the analog output tasks without changing the digital output data. I hope that you find this information helpful.

Hal L.

What are your impressions of "multi-tasking"?

If you have iOS4 and a capable device, you should have multi-tasking and opened apps appearing in the task bar. Newer app versions are able to run in the background. In my opinion, when I close most apps (by pressing the home button), I want them to close completely, not run in the background. Aside from being a privacy issue, apps in the task bar may use battery power or if truly in a suspended mode, they still take up memory or process capability. In order to really shut them down, two additional home button clicks and then two more screen strokes are required. Not very efficient and probably leading to an earlier home button failure. Why not have some kind of screen command (tap or swipe combination?) to simultaneously shut down all apps in the task bar? The bar itself is useless if you have used many apps in the course of a day. To find what you're looking for, you have to scroll through a long parade of icons. It's a lot easier to just tap the icon where you know it is sitting in the nice folder you created. I don't get it. I realize the bar can be used for switching open apps, but this is really not that big of a deal for the vast majority of apps. Furthermore, there should be an option to enable or disable multi-tasking globally as well as for individual apps. Now that would be an improvement.
What are your thoughts?

I havent done any kind of multitasking on my ipod touch, im waiting to upgrade my software to the newer one. However, I couldnt agree more with that of pressing the home button many times to perform basic function to switch apps or enable the multitasking ability. I think palm adapted a better design of software than apple ever did with their IOS 4. Palm's webOS can handle full multitasking--something the iPhone can't do. Palm uses what it calls "a deck of cards model" for managing multitasking: You can view each of your open applications at once, shuffle them any way you choose, and then discard the ones you want to close. All of this is done with intuitive gestures that mimic handling a physical deck of cards. Apps remains live, even when minimized into the card view, so changes can continue to happen in real-time, even if you've moved on to another activity.
I had the time to experience a bit of a palm web os software on an AT&T store and my impression on that software is done more elegantly than apple multitasking home pressing button system.
P.S to NYtroutbum: you should definitely present that idea to apple by its feedback product page. Let's hope it listens.

C'mon what's happening to nokia.I wish i've never bought this device.I hope nokia will face this issues and realease a GOOD SOFTWARE that can fix this problems.An I hope that NOKIA BELLE could also intoduce in nokia asha 311
this is not smart phone

Where is the Asha line advertised as smartphones? afaik Nokia is clear these are (entry level) featurephones based on S30.
If you would be better of with a different phone why did you not do your homework before you bought the phone?
Nokia Belle will not come to Asha phones. Bell has completely different and much higher hardware requirements.

Can't use airplay and multi task anymore.

First of all, I would like to say I love my Apple TV. The one thing I didn't love when I first got it was when I watched a video or YouTube video on my iPad 4 and used the airplay it would show up on the TV but I had to leave that screen open on the iPad and couldn't do anything else while it was on the tv. The same thing happened with my iPhone 5. Then one day it started working. I don't know if it was an update or what but I was then able to use airplay on either device to watch something on the TV from my iPad but able to multi task and get on Facebook or Safari or whatever. Then one sad day came along and it stopped working and worked like how when I first got it, which was a disappointment, especially after it working for so long. Is there anyone out there that knows how to fix this issue? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Ps - my Apple TV is up to date and I have already tried restarting it.

It is possible that Google broke background playback in the latest update. Unfortunately I cannot check this myself because my iPad is only running iOS 5, whereas the latest version of the YouTube app needed iOS 6.
Still, it could also just be a glitch. In which case restarting your device might resolve the issue. (eg. press and hold power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears).

How do I see the multi-task menu bar?

I am trying to find a way to stop the app "Magellan Road Mate" when I am finished. Seems simple, however, there is no provision for turning the app off. Magellan says to go tap and hold the icon in the multi-task menu bar until a - sign appears then tap the minus sign and that will turn the app off. Being among the technically "near illiterate", I can't seem to find the "Multi-Task Menu Bar".
Can anyone help me out? Any direction will be appreciated. It is embarrasing to be walking through a lobby in a hotel and suddenly your hip speaks...."recalculating route..."

Get back to the Home screen, double tap the Home button and the icons along the bottom will turn into the multitasking bar. Tap and hold one of these till they wiggle with a minus button on them. You an scroll sideways to find the apps you wish to close. Press the Home button once to remove the button then once again to return to the Home screen.
If you have an Apps running when you double tap it will not appear in the multitask bar till you exit to the home screen or change apps.

Multi tasking during phone call????

Can one no longer multitask while making a phone call on the Z10? my old 9320 you could be on speaker phone talking at the same time typing a text to another contact.. I tried swiping up and minimizing the "phone" screen to get to BB hub but it hangs up the call and when you swipe up it swipes across the end call surface.....so my question is is what am i doing wrong or does the Z10 not allow multi tasking during an active call?

Must be my fat fingers then as I have tried numerous times and everytime it hi-lites the "end call" display and hangs up....but it nice to know it can be done.....the end call button is in a terrible place, even hung up a call by hitting it with my chin.
But Thanks for the reply
