as far as i know version 4.0 or later allows multitasking.
I am using iOS 4.2.1 now ...
Methinks joker444 doesn't understand how Apps work.
The answer is no, until an App is written which itself multitasks.

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,
Peter

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.

Satellite A300 - inbuilt Chicony webcam won't work with Win Live Messenger

Hello
I just bought a *Satellite A300-1MC* (runs on Vista Home Premium), and downloaded Windows Live Mail And Live Messenger.
The inbuilt webcam won't work with Live Messenger ; and when selecting Tool, Audi + Vieo Setup in Messenger I get thye following message : "We are unable to run Audi Video setup".
The webcam works fine with the Camera Assisant Software.
I have tried : 1) killing the C.A. Software and starting Messenger ; 2) dowanloading a webcam driver from Toshiba website ; 3) Updating Windows Vista
None of the above work.
Any suggestion gladly received.....
Thomas

Hi,
Many thanks for the advice.
I have downloaded and installed ManyCam 2.3, then rebooted.
The ManyCam software works fine, and picks up signal from the inbuild webcam.
But Windows Live Messenger still doesn't pick up the camera. I can not start a Video call or go to" Video Audio setup".
I have Windows Live Messenger version 14.0.8064 (installed on Tuesday).
Funny enough, yahoo messenger works fine : it gets a signal from the webcam.
Conclusion : i think it is Windows Live Messenger that doesn't work properly for some reason.
I have ordered a new external webcam, in the meantime.

Push Mail Not Working Properly for Windows Live Mail when Online At Windows Live Messenger

Hello,
This is quite an old subject, but it seems to be a recurring problem across versions of Windows Live Messenger handheld client software and Blackberry Internet Service server software. For some time, I used to have no issues with Live Messenger and Push Mail from Hotmail. Now, once again, I am having a huge delay, of several hours, when logged on as “Online” to Windows Live Messenger.
What makes me believe that it is not a Windows Live limitation, by design, due to protocols and notification mechanisms in use, is the fact that I can receive both push mail and instant message notifications, immediately, as long as I am logged on to Windows Live Messenger as “Busy” or “Away”. If the protocols in place allowed notifications to only a single service at a time, I believe it should not work regardless of the status on Windows Live Messenger.
I have been using Hotmail for quite a while and most of my friends use Windows Live Messenger, so I would like to keep both working in my BlackBerry. I understand BlackBerry has a commitment to offering broad compatibility, great stability, and better integration than other solutions on the market that appeals to fancy user interfaces and forget about objectivity. Having a mobile platform that can keep both the corporate and consumer world happy is definitely a great advantage. There are several loyal users that would like to keep sharing the proficiency on a common user interface for business and personal use.
I do not often post messages to online forums, but this is an issue that has been annoying me for quite some time and I am really looking forward to a solution. Is anyone experiencing the same behavior with Windows Live Messenger lately? Is RIM looking for a solution?
Thanks,

Ahhh...given that description, it may be WAD (Working As Designed):
KB15747Email message delivery is delayed because of an integrated Windows Live Hotmail account on the BlackBerry smartphone
As such, there would be nothing to report...

Windows Live Messenger crash with Adobe Flash Player

operating system : Windows 7, 64
browser: Mozilla Firefox (latest version. I have problems with WLM's latest version).
Flash Player version: 10.1
Everytime I install Adobe Flash Player for Windows Live Messenger (it has to be done by Internet Explorer) the Messenger crashes with no message. It just goes white and I can't even close it (I close it with the Task manager). I also have Messenger Plus! installed.
What's the problem? I have a Windows XP (32) with the same Messenger, Flash Player and Plus! version installedand I don't get the crash.
Thanks for your support.

Let me explain it better:
A message appears telling me that I need Adobe Flash Player. Y Download it for Internet Explorer (becaouse it doesn't work with Firefox's plug-in) and I install it with no programs opened. Then, once is installed, I open Windows Live Messenger and at first it goes well... but then, after 1 munute or so (maby less) the program goes white (not the hole computer, just the Messenger) and that's cause it has crashed.

I get video window with ... video loading message, but it fails and I just get a standard XP icon. If I go to Messenger .. tools ..audio & video the camera sparks into life and again I see myself in preview.But when I go to tools .. webcam settings I see the error message :Cannot change camera settings because your camera is not plugged in or you are using it in a video conversation or with another programIt is obviously plugged in, and there are no other programmes running. I have tried deinstall & reinstall ... no difference. I have removed CD extras .. so now just have Cam Manager & Video driver ... but still no joy.Anybody know how to fix this ?

Go to Solution.

Try this -
When you device is POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery. This make a reboot to your device which minor issues with the BlackBerry device.

Awkward Windows Live Messenger issue with 6760

I was having a windows live messenger conversation with a friend yesterday on my new 6760, the area I was in had terrible reception so it kept roaming or cutting out, asking me if I wanted to resend my messages, etc.
I resent them a few times, not sure if they were getting through, when I was startled by a response from a totally different person on my messenger list.
To be clear- I was chatting with person A, when suddenly person B was receiving my messages instead. The chat still said I was talking to person A, and when I checked who was involved in the chat, the only participants were listed as myself and person A, however all my messages were being sent to person B instead, who I had not actually initiated a chat with, they just happened to be online at that time.
Any ideas? I'm a little paranoid to use messenger now, not knowing who is going to end up getting my messages!

Why don't you use another im application like nimbuzz(get.nimbuzz.com) or ebuddy(get.ebuddy.com)

Weird Artifacting with Windows Live Messenger

So, I noticed that I get some artifacting with Windows Live Messenger's notifications after restoring my W520 to its factory settings again. I got angry at it and restored it to factory settings again, and it is still present. Yes, I've tried updating my software. It is weird as I can play games fine without artifacting. Also, this doesn't happen when when I'm on discrete only, happens in Optimus and integrated only, though. Currently trying a clean install. This has never happened before. If it helps, I recently updated to the 1.26 BIOS.
Image of issue.
Edit:
Same issue occurs with a clean install.
Edit 2:
Works fine with the generic VGA driver.

Are your graphics drivers up to date? Maybe try the NVidia Verde 275.xx driver?
WLM 2011 is GPU accelerated. Does the issue also appear in Skype 5 or IE9 or any other GPU accelerated program?
Does the issue seem to appear when Optimus toggles graphics cards?
