Opening and closing 3rd party applications ??

Does opening and closing 3rd party applications with the click of the home button actually close the application, or, does it continue running in the back ground ?
I noticed most of the 3rd party application don't have a close/exit option, and wonder if opening and closing several applications with the home button can cause the many crashes I have read from fellow iPhone owners ?

Clicking the Home button may close the application depending on the application itself. Some applications that use the network may close when going to the Home screen. To force quit any application, hold the Home button down for about 6 seconds until the Home screen comes up.

  • Unable to open files from 3rd party websites/applications

    Hi all,
    My new macbook arrived with QT 7.0.4, I used it perfectly for a week with no problem, but now after carrying out a 'software upgrade' via system preferences to QT 7.1.1 I now find that Quicktime will not open hardly anything!!!! Not bad considering Apples information at the download window states that 7.1.1 was implemented to fix bugs that prevented QT from opening files in 3rd party applications. Whats going on?.......
    In the mean time I've had to carry out a system reboot to go back to QT 7.0.4 and now its back to how it should be. What version of Quicktime 7 am I going to have to wait for before this issue if rectified?
    Cheers

    Thanks all

  • IPod Touch 2.0 Crashes 3rd Party Applications, Erases Music and Videos.

    I don't know if this has been happening to some people. I hear it's mainly for FW 2.0.1, but I have 2.0 and I'm afraid to upgrade. Listen to this:
    It's been over a little over a month since I upgraded my iPod to 2.0. I'm browsing through my apps from the AppStore. All of a sudden I open an application my iPod reboots, crashes. Not only that, but I had to wait at least 4min for the iPod to reboot. It *****.
    After it finally reboot, I opened up a 3rd party application, it opens the main screen, and crashes, bringing me back to the SpringBoard.
    This happens to all of my 3rd Party Apps.
    BUT THAT'S NOT ALL: MY MUSIC AND VIDEOS HAVE BEEN ERASED.
    When I plug the iPod into iTunes on my Mac, it thinks the iPod still has music and videos on it. It ***** having to restore every single day.
    Please help me, anybody. I know this has been an issue for those with 2.0.1. Here are my questions:
    -Should I be afraid to upgrade to 2.0.1?
    -How can I stop the crashing of 3rd Party Apps, as well as the erase of music and videos?
    -Can I do this, so I don't have to restore?
    Any help would be appreciated,
    Thank you in advance,

    This is happening to a lot of people. Check out the discussions all the way back even prior to August.
    No one seems to know the cause but there are many solutions offered to try. You will have to restore or do a full recovery depending on your situation. Again...lots of advice on how to do both in prior discussions.
    Do not restore from a back up. Rather, set your ipod up as a new ipod and give it a new name. Begin by loading your music and videos etc. from your stored library on your pc. You'll find your itouch works like new.
    Next before loading in any applications, review the app store pages selling each app and determine which ones have bugs and crashing issues they are working on or have corrected in their app updates. I've narrowed it down to possibly Advent, Aurora Feint or Converter in my case. We have over 90 free and purchased apps in our library but we have kept it to a bare minimum or 25-30 apps.
    I've also read somewhere in these discussions that the larger mb apps could be at issue with the 2.0 and 2.0.1 updates and something to do with firmware updates? Sorry but I'm not real saavy with the technical side of it but i can tell you that between our two ipod touches we restored/recovered over 16 times from 8/04 to 8/10 because of crashes.
    So far we've been lucky and have been up an running bug free for 3 days. Also, one app started acting strange after i tested it upon syncing so i connected back up to the pc and removed it...that's when i checked online and saw it too had crash issues they were working on.
    They say you can have as many apps as you want on your itouch, so far i'm not testing that theory again...we're taking it slow and choose only what we really really want on our ipod...some say stay away from the gimmicky apps but we have a few on ours that are still working well, crazy lighter, iguide, itarot, campfire, magic8ball...so trust yourself and those that have provided info as well in previous discussions.
    try to find the post from dbmandrake re workarounds for 2.0.1 app install crashes dated 8/9/08...it made sense and got me rolling again.

  • Combine supported files is not automatically opening and closing source applications?

    On my Vista 64 machine, suddenly, the "Combine supported files in Acrobat" has begun malfunctioning. Instead of automatically opening and closing the source application (such as MS Word), Acrobat opens the application and then asks to save a new PDF file for each source file and stalls out the conversion. This problem is not happening on my Win XP machine. I have used the 'Repair Acrobat Installation' function but the problem is not corrected.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Just to close out this thread, the bug was fixed with the latest version of Acrobat Pro Extended (9.3.3).

  • Any links i open from 3rd party applications do not open in firefox.

    To be more precise, when i click a link, Firefox does open however it does not visit the URL. It simply opens a new session. I have started Firefox in safe mode and the problem occurs, i have reset firefox to default preferences and the problem still persists. I can see no problems in the setting of Firefox itself and have already tried all the fixes available.
    I am using Firefox 29.0.1 on Fedora 20 64x

    As i stated, when i click links from 3rd party applications, such as skype; a youtube link or something similar. Firefox opens a new session however it does not visit the clicked url

    Wouldn't it make sense to place it in the server manager / shares section?
    I mean, second to creating or finding a share, isn't this what most users would be after?
    For like 20 years we've been trained to right click to find stuff Microsoft is hiding, and right click don't do nothin' here.  You gotta go hunting under tools.   Or, forget the new half-baked interface with half of what you need and go old school,
    direct to Start - Computer..Right Click.. whoops... that doesn't exist anymore.....
    Drool.........drool.............Find that hiding, blinking start button in a RDP session, click start after three trys,  and TYPE IN "Computer Management" .  Right Click, Pin it to your desktop, pin it to the start screen, pin it to the taskbar, send
    it to OneNote, and upload it to skydrive  so you can find it again, then get back to what you were doing....to find the cottin' pickin open files and kick your users off so you can have your way with the server.

  • 3rd party application and address book

    Hi Guys
    This happens on a regular basis
    I use a 3rd party application called photo mechanic which is a n image browser from www.camerabits.com
    It has a feature where you can email the images using the mail application of your choice(my choice is mail) using the addresses in your address book.
    While sending multiple images often the whole process comes to a grinding halt as the address book is stripped of all it's contents, I back up the address book every time I add an address so it does not cause me to loose the information.
    Just wandering if anyone might have an idea what is causing this, the reason I ask in this forum is that the 3rd party developer says it must be an issue with mail as he knows of no other issues.
    I should add that I have no technical information as the error means a restart so nothing is recorded (that I am aware of)
    The images are added as attachments of usually 300k to 500k in size one per email
    Any help or ideas

    Any suggestions for integrating iweb with static html pages created by 3rd party apps?
    Joe ~ Since iWeb can't import HTML pages, one suggestion is to publish your current sites to the same iDisk space iWeb uses by following the instructions in this Apple doc:
    MobileMe: How to publish a custom website
    ...This would put your sites in Web > Sites folder and the URL would be:
    http://web.me.com/membername/foldername/

  • Clusterware Pricing and/or Licensing Information for 3rd Party Applications

    Hi,
    Can anyone please direct me to Oracle Clusterware 11g pricing and/or licensing information in the scenario where the Clusterware solution is intended for use with a 3rd party application and not with Oracle Database?
    Also, in the case where Clusterware is used with Oracle Database 11g Enterprise, does it require a separate license?
    I appreciate if anyone can provide me with a link to this type of information.
    Thanks in advance!
    Best regards,
    Johan

    OK - So if there is no RAC installed and you all you need to do is provide Cold failover for an Oracle database instance then yes the Clusterware license is at no charge in this scenario.
    briefly :
    you install a Clusterware home - as if you were goin gto create a RAC database
    then you install a database software home on each node.
    then you create the instance.
    there is a good paper here : http://otn.oracle.com/clusterware
    See : Using Oracle Clusterware to Protect A Single Instance Oracle Database 11g (PDF) February 2008
    If the software you are wanting to protect 'talks' to an Oracle database
    You can either install on the RAC nodes - using the clusterware that is already there
    OR
    install Oracle clusterware onto 2 or 3 or more new nodes to build an new application cluster and then install your application.
    Either way both meet the terms of the license doc.

  • SCCM Software Updates (and SCUP) vs. Application Management for 3rd Party Application Patching

    Hi,
    We're getting ready to tackle the phenomena known as Java patching, and I was wondering if I could get your personal preference; SCCM Software Updates (and SCUP) vs. Application Management for 3rd Party Application Patching?
    I probably should give a little background on my environment; It's a university atmosphere, so unless it's policy, you have to ask nicely...can't tell people to do things they don't want to; multiple version of required versions of Java for what ever reason,
    which need to be identified, grouped together, and then upgrade as much as possible without breaking their old applications.
    I was thinking that Application Management probably made more sense where it is more robust, especially for removing multiple installs of Java on a single system, but Software Updates/SCUP looks like it was built for this type of patching, so I'm a bit confused
    why SCCM would have two components which essentially did the same thing.
    Your thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    For Java version management specifically you can already achieve a lot by using the Application Model in CM12.
    You can define supersedence between the different versions, just make sure to opt for uninstall of the older version when defining it.

  • Adobe Reader 9.x does not retain preferences when called by a 3rd party application.

    I have an in-house application that utilizes .pdf and .xfdf files. We use Adobe 9.x when viewing these files and when I open them natively from Windows explorer they Display In Browser and all my Trust Manager preferences are intact. If I use the 3rd party application to open the files they Display In Browser but none of my TrustManager settings are present and I am forced to trust the document each time I reopen Adobe. If I leave Adobe Reader open for the duration of the session that I am using my 3rd party application though the Trust Settings for the document I loaded are present but as soon as I close Adobe they are gone until I Trust the document when opening it again. Any insight as to why this might be and how I could rectify the issue would be appreciated.

    We are using 9.1.1.
    We notice that this option is no loger available in this version.  The below option will keep the form data available even if you exist out from the sessions.

  • 3rd party applications not working (ie: word & photoshop) Help!

    Hey,
    I have been using my macbook without problems for about 7 months now, but last week it started refusing to open 3rd party applications such as word, or photoshop. I tried every application that wasn't apple software and the only one that works now is ableton live. All the non-working applications are legal, i tried reloading the microsoft office software, and even though the reload was successful, the problem still exists when trying to open any of those applications.
    Thanks for any help

    Hi Red and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...
    Sometimes when apps won't open, it's because the hard disk is full. Here's how to check to see how much free space is available.
    Launch Disk Utility from the Applications/Utilities folder. Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left. Now, tell her to look at the bottom of that page where it says: Capacity and Available. Rule of thumb... never allow free disk space to fall below 15 - 20%. It takes a minimum of 15% free disk space just to boot a Mac.
    If that isn't the issue, because she can't open PS or Word, it might be a corrupted font that she has used in both those applications. Tell her to try this. She needs to find this file:
    com.apple.FontBook.plist It's here: /Users/HerName/Library/Preferences. Open the Preferences folder, locate that file and drag it to the trash, empty the trash and reboot. It's ok to trash a pref file as any Mac will create a new one for her.

  • 7344 servo motion switching between open and closed loop operation

    I have a custom end-of-line test system presently using a 4-axis 7344 servo controller to perform various functional tests on small, brushed DC motors. The system is programmed in C/C++ and uses flex motion functions to control the motor during testing. Motors are coupled to external encoder feedback and third party PWM drives running in closed-loop torque mode from an analog command signal. The system uses all four motion axis channels on the 7344 board to independently and asynchronously test up to four production motors at a time.
    In closed-loop mode, the system runs without issue, satisfying the battery of testing protocols executed by this system. I now have a request to add additional test functionality to the system. This testing must be run in open loop mode. Specifically, I need to use my +/- 10v analog output command to my torque drive to send different DAC output levels to the connected motor.drive while monitoring response.
    I do not believe the flex motion library or 7344 controller includes functions to easily switch between open and closed loop mode without sending a new drive configuration. I am also under the impression that I cannot reconfigure one (or more) servo controller axis channels without disabling the entire drive. As my system runs each axis channel in an asynchronous manner, any requirement to shutdown all drives each time I change modes is an unworkable solution.
    I am open to all ideas that will allow asynchronous operation of my 4 motor testing stations. If the only solution is to add a second 7344 controller and mechanical relays to switch the drive and motor wiring between two separately configured servo channels, so be it. I just want to explore any available avenue before I place a price tag on this new system requirement.
    Bob

    Jochen,
    Thank you for the quick response. The 7344 board does an excellent job running my manufacturing motor assemblies through a custom end-of-line tester in closed loop mode. A portion of the performance history and test result couples the motor through a mechanical load and external shaft. The shaft is in contact with a linear encoder that closes my servo loop.
    My new manufacturing requirement is to also sample/document how the small DC motor behaves in open loop operation. Your solution is exactly what I need to perform the additional functional tests on the product I am manufacturing. I see no reason why this cannot work. I was originally concerned that I would need to reinitialize the 7344 board after changing axis configuration. Initialization is a global event and impacts all four channels on the 7344 board.
    Using flex_config_axis() to change axis configuration on a single channel without disturbing other potentially running axis channels will solve my concern. It will be several weeks before I can return to the manufacturing facility where the 7344-based testing machine is located. I will update this thread once I verify a successful result.

  • Open and closed hand cursors

    I have a drag image application and I wanted to use the open and closed hand cursors to move the image about. It seems there is no easy way of accessing these in Java. After searching for cursor names etc.. I decided to hard code the cursors from the .gif image. Also I didn't want the .GIFs as files as this adds to loading problems so I ended up using arrays of pixels that took a little while to enter.

                   setCursor(openhandCursor);you need to define openhandCursor and closedhandCursor with your other cursor definitions (I made them default to start with) and then just use setcursor as normal. There must be an easier way to do this!

    sessions in an application. Do use viOpenDefaultRM at the beginning and use
    this as a global object or do we use good object oriented design practice
    and use viOpenDefaultRM and then use viOpen to open communication in a local
    set of varibles in the function or sub and then close both objects before
    exiting.
    Please comment,

    You may do whichever you prefer.
    Each instrument class I create does it's own OpenDefaultRM and keeps the return value internally.
    I know many people who do not use object oriented languages and simply keep the DefaultRM value in a global variable.
    As far as the recommended practice, I don't know of any official recommendation regarding this detail.
