No way to get out of App

Hey guys,
Some of my apps won't give me a way to exit the app.
The reason is that, for apps like the reader or calendar, when I point towards the top right corner, the x for close doesn't appear. Neither does the last used app when I point towards the top left corner, or the task bar when I point towards the bottom
of the screen. The only way to get out is by pushing the windows key or alt tab. 
I want my close x, task bar and last used app back - How can I?
Thanks! 
Tobi

Hi Tobi,
Alt+F4 will also completely stop all processes associated with an app, if you don't see the Close button in the title bar, you might don't have the latest update to Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1.

    Double tap the home button and swipe up on the app screen shot, to close out of the app in multitasking.

  • Is there any way to get the server app other that through the app store. We do not have our system conneted to a network. I typical downloaded items on a non-apple system.

    is there any way to get the server app other than through the app store. The system that I need it on are not connected to the internet.
    We run a closed-loop network of apple systems and I tipically downloaded updates on a non-apple system that was on the internet.
    Any ideas?

    I did buy the server app, went to the app store to download it. This system I'm using for downloads is Snow Leopard 10.6.8, it shows that I can download it but only as an Install which says I need 10.8. I can't seem to find a way for it to just download as a package or .dmg file so that I can copy it to DVD/CD or flash drive.

  • What is an easy way to get to my app store on my computer?  I can never just go to it and usually end up there by pure luck.

    what is an easy way to get to my "app" store on my computer?  I usually just stumble upon it my chance.

    If you mean the App Store for your iOS devices, that is in iTunes. If you are running iTunes 12, then you would select the App icon in the toolbar, then select Store:

  • Firefox just updated to 5.0.1 when it opens it opens two tabs, one a restore session tab and the other Firefox home tab. Nothing appears in the restore tab and everything freezes. Only way to get out is to ctrl, alt, del.

    After updating to Firefox 5.0.1 and trying to open Firefox, it opens two tabs. One is the restore session tab and the other is the Firefox home tab. Nothing opens in the session restore tab and once the Firefox home tab loads the browser screen freezes with no crash ID's listed. The only way to get out is thru the task manager and ending the process. Firefox worked fine before updating.

    Hi glivezey,
    Try typing ''about:home'' into the address bar. Is that the page you are looking for? If so, go to ''Tools > Options > General'' and save it as your homepage. If that home page doesn't show up the next time you start Firefox, you should look at [[Preferences are not saved]].
    Hopefully this helps!

  • I don't want to do the recovery thing to my iPhone4, but my iPhone is at the stage in the update where it says to plug it into iTunes, is there some way to get out of this or save all of my data somehow?

    i don't want to do the recovery thing to my iPhone4, but my iPhone is at the stage in the update where it says to plug it into iTunes, is there some way to get out of this or save all of my data somehow?

    What do you mean the "update" says plug it into iTunes? If you have the iTunes logo/USB cord on the screen, it's in recovery mode or needs to be activated. Anything that was on the phone is already gone. You have no choice but to plug it into the computer. Hopefully, you backed it up before you started the update.
    If that's not what you mean, then please explain.
    Apple may or may not be able to fix the lock button for you without replacing the phone entirely. You'll have to take it in and ask.

  • Any way to get the mail app to get updated message counts for other folders

    I've been wondering if there's a way to get the mail app to not only check if new mail exists in my main "inbox", but also all of the folders on my imap server? I can individually visit each folder I'm interested in and while it works, I have to guess what folders might have mail in them.. It would be great to have the phone check all folders (or perhaps a list of subscribed folders) for new mail on a regular basis.. Any ideas?

    I have opened a wrap-up thread related to the issue reported here and in many other threads -- "iPhone Mail does not poll IMAP subfolders for server-side processed e-mails": http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1355852

  • Any way to find out which apps I use the most?

    Sometimes there are apps that I don't realize I use a lot. Is there any way to find out which apps I use the most, so I can put those on my first home screen?

    I'd keep and eye on your multitask bar. This tells me what apps I use and often forget I've been in that day.

  • So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as a single swf file from captivate.

    Dear friends,
    I am beginner in Adobe Captivate. We have a E-learning
    project. We are using Dockers as our LMS. Previously we were using
    Flash for all. Now we are trying Captivate for better and faster
    results. I have few swf files and i inserted al files in Captivate
    and i published. So instead of getting single output, am getting
    all the swfs, skin swf and html file. Html file is accessing all
    swfs and works. But it is not working in Dockers. Single swf will
    only work in Dockers. So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as
    a single swf file from captivate. please Help mee.
    Thanks
    Flashlover

    If 'Dockers' cannot handle a .zip file as the content and
    instead
    requires a single, uncompressed content file, then it is not
    SCORM-compliant. The SCORM specification requires the LMS to
    handle a
    'pif' file (most common is .zip) which contains the lesson
    and the
    required manifest file. If Dockers doesn't support that then
    you can't
    do SCORM-compliant content.

  • My mac keeps freezing on highlighting only way to get out of it is to power down and restart

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Is there any way to get an older app version of apple tv remote?

    It's been several months since the apple tv remote app was updated to 3.0+.
    Once I updated, I have not been able to control my apple tv (2nd gen).
    I have 2 ipod touch (2nd gen as well) and neither can use the updated app to control our apple tv any more.
    We've had to resort to using the aluminum remote (which we constantly are losing)
    Long story short. Is there any way to get an older version of the app (say 2.4)? I've looked everywhere but everyone links back to itunes (and that only has the latest version). We're also stuck on iOS 4.2 because of hardware. There are a couple of sites out there but it seems that they are not legit as they ask for credit card info.
    Any help is appreciated.

    You can only do so if you downloaded a previous version at some point in the past, and it's still in the iTunes library on your computer. If that version is updated too, maybe the old version is in Trash/Recycling Bin.
