Some apps stay open when trying to close more than one app at a time in ios 7

I tried closing down 2 or 3 app at a time in IOS7 and there's always one or two that stay open. The icon at the bottom is still there but I've already swiped it up to close it. When I go out of the closing function and come back I see that they are still open and I need to close them again. I tried this on many ipads, iPhones and ipod touch and they all act the same way.

I guess you didn't know, but yes you can close more than one app at a time. You can close up to 3 apps at a time in the new IOS7 on the iPhone. Try opening at least 3 apps and then double click the main button to see what apps are opened. Then swipe to the left to see the three of them on your screen. Your not gonna see the ones on the side entirely but you can still put all three fingers on them, then simply swipe them up and it closes them up.
The thing is, when you have let say 10 apps open, and you start using this trick, some of them will stay open meaning you swiped them up to close them down but the bottom icon stays there. When you come back to your main IOS desktop and then go back to close the programs that you have opened, you can see that those apps are still opened. There is only like 2 or three out of all the 10 you had opened that stayed open, but none the less it's a bug in the system I presume.
You also asked about the icon at the bottom. When you are seeing what apps are opened, there is always a small icon at the bottom and on top you have a representation of what you were working on, and that is the part you swipe up. But often time the bottom icon will stay opened after swiping 2 or 3 of the apps to close them.

  • Syncing Issues when trying too sync more than one thing

    since the 8.0.2 update syncing has been real glitchy for me lately when i try too sync my iphone and ipod. for whatever reason, i cant sync more than one thing at the same time. for example if i have my iphone still plugged in, then plug in my ipod too update it, soon after the itunes would give me a unknown error then lock up. specifically this error. http://img407.imageshack.us/my.php?image=unknownituneserrorjq3.jpg
    sometimes it would say iphone, sometimes it would say ipod.. that error would just depend on which was plugged in first.
    its just weird, windows detects both drives fine. and if i have them in one at a time itunes will be able to read and sync that device. unless this is a direct problem with my computer which i dont think, i dunno. both devices work in any usb port. it just doesnt like them both being in at the same time.
    this happening with anyone else?

    See this support doc, iPod for Windows: Only works with one iPod at a time. The title pretty much says it all. If it's worked for you before then it's more likely by luck than design.

  • Use multi-touch to close more than one app at a time in the multitask bar!!

    Is this a new feature? I was always annoyed that I had to tap each red x one at a time to close an app on the multitasking bar, so I decided to try and tap several at a time and voilà! It works! I've been able to tap two at a time. Let me know if anyone can do more! I wish they would add a "close all" button, but in the meantime this helps a lot!!!

    You only have two fingers? Yes, you can close 4 at a time.

  • Trying to rename more than ONE artist at a time.

    im trying to rename many album, artist, etc.. names at once was wondering if there is a way to seclect many artists at once to edit cause i'm getting really tired of seclecting each one at a time. thank you.

    Not true. You CAN change multiple items if they are totally UNRELATED. They do not have to have ANYTHING in common.
    However, whatever fields you change will apply to ALL of the tracks selected.
    I had many duplicated artists in my library because of being one or 2 letters off, etc. I'd just highlight all of them, and change the artist field so that ALL the tracks now h ad the same artist. They were from different albums and different genres, and it didn't make a bit of difference.

  • Problem trying to email more than one image at a time from LR3

    Hi.  I have set up the export presets for 'Email and Attach' carefully following the instructions. If I select more than one photo to send only one appears as an attachment. I am using OUTLOOK. How do I solve this problem?

    What do you mean by "Email and Attach" ? There is no such thing as "Attach" in the LR Export dialog. At least not in my version of LR. You export photos for e-mail to a certain folder or to your desktop and then attach them manually to your e-mail.

  • How do i get my ipod touch to download more than one app at a time, can i make it toware i dont have to wait for one app to download before it starts downloading another,

    my ipod will only download one app at a time and runs extremely slow. i was wondering if there is some way that i can make it download more than one app at a time and how can i make the app start downloading again after i have left my wi-fi zone and then went back in. im really confused.

    Download everything on your computer in iTunes, then sync your iPod to iTunes.
    You should be syncing (backing up) to iTunes and your photo app regurally, anyway.

  • IMac (2008) OS10.6.8 - Main menu freezes when running more than one application at a time.  Apple and 3rd party applications - all freeze the main menu.  Safe mode seems to work OK. Tried repairing permissions - didn't work.

    For the past 60 days I've experienced Main Menu freeze when running more than one application at a time.  iPhoto, Preview, Text Edit, Epson Scan, Firefox and Thunderbird are the apps I use almost daily.  No matter what I do, when more than one is running they will freeze the Main Menu (top of the screen).  I've tried booting is Safe Mode and I don't seem to have a problem.  I've tried several suggestions from repairing permission (DiskUtility) to eliminating specifis login items.  Nothing works. I've posted this issue on the Apple forum several times and no one else has experienced this problem.  I hesitate to take my iMac to the Apple Store or a private Apple repair service until I've exhausted all of my options.  Do I have any more options?    

    Question:  Everytime an app crashes I have the option to report it to Apple - which I usually do.  But I've NEVER reported a Main Menu freeze because it never asks me to
    There's really no need to submit to Apple, it's just a round file cabinet on the other end, especially with 10.6 or earlier.
    This sure sounds like a resource problem...

  • When will this thing run more than one app at the same time?

    When will we be able to run more than one app at a time?

    As has been suggested, we won't know about future features until they announce them, but by understanding the current situation we can guess.
    The current limitations on third-party applications running in the background make sense. It's not a technical limitation. App store downloads, and the phone functionality run in the background while other applications are up front.
    It's a resource limitation. Processor power and probably more importantly battery life are the key limiting factors. It's not that Apple doesn't want you to have more functionality. It's that it currently struggling to deliver a quality experience that satisfies as many customers as possible. As it is the battery life is only just acceptable enough for most current customers, many are unhappy with it.
    So if more efficient chips or batteries become available, or some genius programmer manages to squeeze out a whole lot more out of less, then we'll see more background processes allowed.

  • Ipad, filing, folders, opening a document with more than one app...

    Hi
    I am wondering about iPad filing, documents and the future that iOS 5 and iCloud hold.
    Am I right in thinking that there will still be no file/folder structure and that documents will be held individually by apps?
    This creates two problems for me:
    1)  I need to access the same document (e.g. a pdf file) from more than one app. For example, say I need to use iAnnotate to mark it up and Sente to file it. However each app keeps their own copy of the document, so the annotated copy from iAnnotate is not the same copy as the one filed correctly in the Sente database.
    2) How do I keep the files for a specific project together? Say I have source documents, word-processing documents, presentations, images etc all related to one project: how do I keep them all together? If we had tagging  (as in openmeta or similar) I could tag them - works beautifully on the desktop but not available on the iPad. If we had folders I could at least group them in folders... What is is the iPad solution?
    M

    Here's how I address # 1:
    I use DropBox as my central hub to keep documents accessible and synced between my iPad and my laptop. That means that I export, share, copy or print the document, with my changes, to DropBox from whatever application I'm using. For example, if I open a PDF in PDF Expert (the app I use for reading and annotating) I can "open" a copy in DropBox with my annotations. For Pages and other iWork files I use DropDAV which enables me to save to DropBox via WebDAV. For other apps like Safari that don't have DropBox integration, I use Save2PDF to "print" a PDF to the appropriate DropBox folder.
    As to #2, two things come to mind. The first is that you can use the search function to find related files if you put your tag in the title or somewhere else searchable. The second is that I set up a file structure in DropBox on my laptop that meets my needs (and is also one way to begin to emulate a file structure on the iPad). For example, i keep my current course files, with their presentations, documents, and spreadsheets, in DropBox. But many of my projects have so many components and so many images, etc, I've become used to having components in different applications (Aperture, iTunes, etc) and I do rely on my laptop (and its external drives) for my central and final project management. For things in process, though, the iPad works very well.
    ICloud may change all this. :-)

  • HT1725 I can no longer download music from itunes store.  Happened when I was Downloading from songs dragged from itunes store to a playlist.  I tried to downloaad more than one at a time.  The download stopped.  Now I can not download at all.

    I can no longer download music from itunes store.  It happened when I was trying to download songs dragged into a playlist.  I tried to download more than one at a time.  It stopped.  Now I cant download at all.  Even rebooted my machine. 

    OK thanks I will try that. I just don't understand why I still can't download new videos as I've deleted the software I installed and I've changed my camera settings back to what they were before when I could download into iPhoto. I perhaps should have mentioned it's iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    It could be as simple as longer (larger) videos - iPhoto does not always handle larger video files well
    Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    iPhoto is not a download and view program - it is a photo management database program that imports photos - Image Capture is a download program - Preview is a view program
    The default program to download your photos is set in the preference panel of either iPhoto or image capture

  • File open on more than one computer at a time

    I maintain a network of four Macs (Cube, G4 Tower, Mini, and G5 Tower) all running OS 10.4.11. Recently two people working on the network discovered that they both had a certain file open at the same time. In order to determine the extent of the problem, on each computer I created and kept open a TextEdit file. I then attempted to open each TextEdit file from the three computers on which the file was not stored. To my dismay I received no error or warning message of any sort. I was able to open all four files on all four computers at the same time!
    Each of the computers has a single user, and each computer is logged into the other computers as the user on that computer (i.e., each guest is logged in as the host). I wonder if that might be the source of the trouble.
    I never noticed any file being open on more than one computer at a time when all the computers were running 10.3.9, only after I upgraded to 10.4.
    Any ideas?

    This is absolutely standard behavior and I don't expect this to change any time soon.
    Let me try to explain based on a model of a file stored on Server1 and being accessed by Client1 and Client2:
    Here's what's happening:
    Client1 connects to the server and opens the file for reading.
    Client1 reads the file and closes it
    Client2 connects to the server and opens the file for reading.
    Client2 reads the file and closes it
    Since Client1 closed the file there's nothing to indicate to Client2 that the document is in use anywhere else because, in fact, it isn't.
    There's nothing on the server that knows whether Client1 opened the file to look at it, to copy it, to back it up to some other media or to actually edit it. It is only that last step that should prevent another client from opening the file.
    If you think about it, that makes perfect sense. If you copy the file over the network to Client1 you do not want the server to think that Client1 has an exclusive hold on that file and to prevent Client2 from opening it.
    The only time the file is in use is a) when the file is being read, and b) when the file is being saved. When it's just being viewed the client doesn't have an active hold on the file.
    The actual fix here is for the application to set a flag that the file is in use and for the server to honor that flag. It's supported by the networking protocols but it's rarely implemented in applications except those that expect a multi-user setup.

  • Can we open more than one  "folder" at a time in Bridge?

    When I click on a folder icon, the images appear in the Bridge workspace. Then when I click on another, different, folder icon, the previously displayed images are gone, and only the second folder's images appear. A priori, this seems to be an unnecessary limitation on functionality, and therefore I presume that I just do not know how to do what is called for: To use the functionality of Bridge for more than the contents of only one folder at a time.
    Yes, I know that I could, using, say, Windows Explorer, create a sort of "megafolder" into which I copied the contents of several folders, but this seems to be a kludge which should not be necessary.
    Did the designers of Bridge not contemplate that users would want to operate on the contents of more than one folder at a time? I presume that I am just ignorant of how to achieve what should be a normal functionality; seeing more than the contents of just one folder at a time.
    Please alleviate my ignorance.

    Quick way: Press Ctrl+N (Cmd-N mac) to open a new Bridge window. Open the second folder there.
    Not so quick way: Select menu File => New Window. Open the second folder there.
    If you MUST view all of the files in one window, all of your files MUST be in folders nested within the same parent folder. In that case:
    1) View the parent folder in bridge.
    2) Open the Filter palette.
    3) Click the microscopic button in the top left corner of the Filter palette, which looks like a folder with a "No" symbol on it. The tooltip label for that button is, "Click to view all items...".
