Using More Than One App At A Time

Does anyone know if there is a way to use more than one app at a time? It would be nice to get back to the home screen without quitting an app if you are in the middle of something.

I know I have seen some apps that specifically say that they can be used while surfing the web, etc. It may be a function of the app that it can continue to run while you're doing something else. I'm kind of surprised that a radio app wouldn't allow for that.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Can you download more than one app at a time?

    Basically, can I purchase two apps for OS X, both large downloads, and leave it overnight trusting both to be ready when I come back to the machine? Will they download one at a time, or concurrently?
    Thanks

    Only one app can be downloaded simultaneously. However, if you select to install both before going to bed, both should be downloaded and installed when you wake up, before when one app finishes installing, the other one will start being installed

  • 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.

  • Using more than one ResultSet at a time

    I need to use nested ResultSets. That is, I need to define a second ResultSet before the first ResultSet is completed.
    But, whether I define the second ResultSet inside the while loop of the first (while(rs.next()), or I define the second without looping through all the results of the first, I get errors in my results (all zeros where I expect numbers).
    If I either comment out the first ResultSet or loop completely through the first before defining the second, the results are correct.
    I am using two different Statement objects, one for each result-set, and have even tried using two different Connections to create these two Statements, and the same error occurred.
    I have done this with Sybase, and did not see these errors. I am presently using classes12.zip and nfs_charset12.zip, but I have tried using classes111.zip and nfs_charset11.zip and saw the same errors.
    Has anyone seen this problem before?
    Thanks,

  • How do I set up the multiple scree display so I can use more than one doc at a time

    With the old operating system I was able to swipe to the upper left hand corner and 9 screens would appear.  When working on a research paper I was able to move docs to each screen to help organize.  With this Op System it seems to have gone away.  Is there a way to set it up again?

    Apple implemented major changes with working in multiple spaces from the version you were using in 10.6 Snow Leopard. (This first version was in 10.7 and has developed further till now.)
    To avoid a very long description post, search 'Work in multiple spaces'  in the Help menu for details on how to use the new spaces in Mission Control.

  • 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.

  • How can I use more than one Data Provider in my web Apps

    Hi,
    You can use more than one data provider in your application. However if you have defined a dataprovider for a particular table already, and wish to bind a component, select the component and use its context menu to Bind to Data...

  • Can I use more than one bluetooth device at a time with my iphone4

    Can I use more than one bluetooth device at a time with my iphone4

    Anthony
    I have a Plantronics 975 earpiece that works very well with my Razr.  I
    just got a Panasonic KX-TG7873S phone system for my home, it has a
    "Link-to-Cell" cellular convergence solution, from what I understand it is
    just Bluetooth enabled.  I have paired both device with my Razr.  In
    settings, Bluetooth setting, both device show.  But only one device can
    connect at a time.  If my Plantronics is connected and I choose the
    Panasonic device, the Plantronics device disconnects and the Panasonic
    device then says it is connected.  Both devices work when they
    are connected.  Is it because they are both "headsets"?
    So, to have to remember to connect to one or the other device, depending on
    weather I am coming or going is not practical.

  • Can I use more than one blue-tooth device at the same time on IPhone 4S? Like a wireless headsets and speed and cadence sensor for cycling computer, receive the data and listen music simultaneously

    Can I use more than one blue-tooth device at the same time on IPhone 4S? Like a wireless headsets and speed and cadence sensor for cycling computer, receive the data and listen music simultaneously

    As long as the profiles are different (ex. HID vs AD2P) you will not have any issues. But say if you try to use 2 keyboards at once, it won't work. Or 2 headsets at once. Your scenario seems fine.

  • I'm using an iPhone 4. I used to be able to send more than one picture at a time to another iPhone. Now I get messages that it cannot be delivered.  What's going on?

    While on vacation in Canada in July I started having trouble sending more than one pix at a time to other users. I don't recall having this problem before. Is there a limit on the number of pictures you can send via text? I wonder if I messed up some settings while I was in Canada. I had things set so that I could not receive phone calls so I wouldn't get charged.  Could I have messed up text / multimedia settings as well?

        We want your phone working just as well now as it did before your trip, sngbrd9. Are you trying to send the pictures to other Apple users using iMessage or are they being sent through MMS/picture messaging? Are you able to send pictures one at a time to those same contacts without an error? Did you change any settings in your camera to have HDR now instead of a slightly lower resolution with a smaller file size?
