Must I open FB, skype, and other IM apps to get push notification in iphone 4s?

Must I open FB, skype, and other IM apps to get push notification in iphone 4s? Because I notice that once i close the apps, it will not send me message. I thought that is what "PUSH" means??

ok, i saw a line saying "If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications."
so, that means i must "open" the app in background in order to get push notification??
what i mean by PUSH notification is by double clicking your home button, then press on the apps and CLOSE the app and yet you can get message from your friends. I think iphone cannot do that currently?

  • I bought a mic for my ipod touch 2nd gen and the mic works yet when its plugged in the speakers dont work, meaning i cant hear, so skype and other similar apps are un-useable, is there a way in which the mic and speakers will both work together?

    I bought a mic for my ipod touch 2nd gen and the mic works yet when its plugged in the speakers dont work, meaning i cant hear, so skype and other similar apps are un-useable, is there a way in which the mic and speakers will both work together?

    Looking at the details for this mic, it appears that the app has to have the option to use the internal specak when a mic is plugged into the headphone jack. Specifically:
    NOTE: When MityMic is plugged into your iPod/iPhone you won’t be able to use the onboard speaker for sound output. You must remove the MityMic then play back your recordings. (The Skype app has an option to enable the onboard speaker even when the mic is plugged in, so you could use MityMic for placing Skype calls. However most other apps do not have this function.)
    The above is from:

  • Blue line runs across screen but Skype (and other Andoid apps) crashes and doesn't open

    The headline says it all really. I was forced to restore to an earlier saved version after problems associated with contacts. Amongst the many issues now is the inability to run adroid apps, whether ported on not. Not happy. Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks

    Did you restore your phone with an OS of at least 10.2.1? Anything earlier than that will not run Android apps.
    Cheers.

  • Blocking all websites except a few + Skype and other chat programs

    Hello,
    Can you tell me how can i block all websites from a network except a few of them using a Linksys wireless router?
    Also, i need to block several ports used for Skype and other chat apps.
    I want this solution to work for the whole network. Not using windows policy or other ways where i'd have to go to every single computer.
    Thank you.

    There's a way on how to do that but it depends on the model number of your device. What's the model number of your router anyway?

    If you do not lock that folder immediately after deleting all the contents, it will simply populate again (Resume - a "feature" in Lion). You do that by doing a Get Info (highlight folder and press Command + I keys), unlock the lock at the bottom, enter your admin password, then check the box to lock the folder. lock the lock and you're done.
    Yes, that is correct. The alternative is to quit all applications prior to logging out. Lion will then have a chance to remove the saved states.

    And, for the OP:
    It has also been a regular feature of Mac OS to automatically open any window that was open at shutdown. To avoit that behavior, simply close any Finder windows and  properly quit applications by closing their window and using Command + Q (or File >Quit).
    This was true only for the Finder. Prior to Lion, no other apps would launch unless they were included in the Login Items for the account. And the OS would not restore windows for other apps.
    A very small number of apps (TextWrangler is an example) implemented this capability prior to Lion. They could restore previously opened windows. But that is an application feature, and can be controlled by the application's preferences. Lion implements it at the system level, and users have virtually no control on a per application basis.

  • IPad bombs out returns to home page using Google Earth and other random Apps, why and how can I prevent it happening?

    iPad bombs out returns to home page using Google Earth and other random Apps, why and how can I prevent it happening?

    Quit/close all apps and restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You can try this as well.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    This is normal. OS X doesn't come with iLife apps, so you have to reinstall them after reinstalling Mac OS X.
    If your Mac came without DVDs or you purchased it after July 2011, you have to install the iLife applications from the Mac App Store. Open the Mac App Store, log in with your Apple ID, go to Purchases and download GarageBand, iMovie and iPhoto free of charge.
    If your Mac came with DVDs and you didn't purchase the iLife apps in the Mac App Store, insert the Applications DVD and install the iLife apps. Then, open  > Software Update, and install the latest iLife applications version

  • Activation Limit for BlueFire, OverDrive and other reader apps.

    BlueFire, OverDrive and other reader apps for iPad uses Adobe ID authorization for each app.  There is a limit of only six activations and each reader app counts as a new activation and if I exceed six activations I would get too many activation error.  Does deauthorizing these apps credit back the activation count or only erase the activation from the device local storage?  If I install both BlueFire and OverDrive I'll burn two activations.  If I delete the app and then reinstall it I'll burn two more activations and if I hit the six activation limit I'll get too many activation errors.  Why does each reader app count separately even on the same iPad?  Why does Adobe count each separate IOS app as a separate device?

    Oh, yes, I am clear now. Thanks very much again.
    Perhaps the one we purchased has multiple user licenses?would you pls advise how to whether it is a multiple user license version or not?
    (It seems a bit silly that I asked this question as I had the CD. The fact is that the preious designer left the company, but he did not turn over this to me. I dont know the details of the software.)
    Thanks a lot.

  • IM+ and other chat Apps

    Got my iphone yesterday.
    I downloaded ebuddy to play around with, which was ok. When I run the program in the background the message popped up my main screen to let me know I had a message. Which i think is pushing yes?
    However I then brought IM+, it now even the the programs stays logged in (well kinda maybe thats pushing) but now I wont the messages dont pop up on my main screen and i wont get them till i phsycially login into the application. Which is annoying.
    Orginally I thought it was im+, but when i tried again witg ebuddy i had the same problem so I guess the iphone settings.
    Anyway Ive looked through all the settings and I am lost

    If Push notifications are included/provided/supported by the app developer for a particular app, you are prompted to enable Push notifications the first time you launch the app. If Push notifications are included/provided with an app, you can check which type of Push notifications are provided by the app developer with the app at Settings > Notifications. Select the app to turn on of off the type of Push notifications are included/provided by the app developer such as Sounds, Alerts, and Badges. If all 3 types are included/provided with the app, you can enable or disable all 3, or enable only one of two types of notifications.
    If the app is running in the background, a pop-up message on the screen with a message is received is not Push. If the app is not running in the background - the app is suspended when leaving the app, a pop-up message on the screen with a message is received is a Push notification.
    If Push notifications are included/provided by the app developer for an app and your desired Push notifications are enabled for the app and the notifications are not working, you need to contact the app developer for the app to report this since this is the app developer's responsibility.
