What command will tell which apps are open?

In Lion, how do I know which applications are open at any given time?

There should be a button at the bottom of my post, Solved or Helped. But that is only for the Original Poster.
Thanks anyway, it really doesn't matter. Just that you now know how to do that.

  • Can you see which apps are open and/or running like you can on an android phone by going to settings applications running services?

    can you see which apps are open and/or running (like you can on an android phone by going to settings>applications>running services)?

    Hi wjosten,
    thank you for the help.  I should have said I had a iphone 3.  A friend has the same phone and she showed me how she can see what web pages are open when she double taps the home button.  Mine is set to bring up favourites when I double tap (chosen from settings>general>home button).. BUT my choices are only HOME; SEARCH; PHONE FAVORITES; CAMERA or IPOD.  I changed my choice to HOME but that just defeats the purpose as when I am at the home page and double tap nothing happens.  Am I making sense?

  • How do you tell which files are open in bridge cs5?

    In adobe bridge for CS2, open files in Photoshop show an icon in the lower right corner of the bridge thumnail. This is really helpful in sorting if you have a lot of files open. I can't figure out how to tell in bridge CS5 which files are open in photoshop. Is there a menu option that controls this??

    Thanks for the reply. This is a useful feature but not quite what I need.
    I am sorting through 2000 wedding photos. I have maybe 10 versions of the same shot open at a time. I edit, save, and close 2-3 of them. In CS2, I would go back to bridge and I could see the 7 files still open. I could quickly highlight and delete them. I'm trying to find a way to do something similar in CS5 bridge. Right now, I take the ones I'm going to delete and stack them all. But when I go back to bridge to delete them, I have to look at file numbers to see which ones are in the stack that I want to delete. This really slows my work flow. Any suggestions? Can I delete them directly from Photoshop?

  • How can I tell which apps are using data

    Perhaps this is a suggestion, just in case someone who is in a position to note this at Apple (not likely?) might read it.
    How about an app included in the OS that allows users to track which apps are transmitting and receiving data through cellular data and/or wireless.
    I keep getting charged by AT&T (it took restraint to not type a bunch of explatives before AT&T) for escessive data usage, even though I'm in wifi 90%+ of each day, and purposely restrict using it when not in wifi. Seriously, I don't now how I could use it less barring not using it at all, and I still get charged for data. I have no idea how to control this since I cannot tell which, if any, apps are transmitting data in the background, or if that's even possible.
    Seriously annoyed at getting charged extra when the 'service' they provide barely works for me the miniscule amount of times I try to use it.

  • HT1414 what if none of my apps are opening on my iphone 4s? all of the apps I downloaded just say "waiting"

    None of my apps that I downloaded are opening and all of them just say "waitin

    Hi charmedbella10,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. The following is a past discussion that dealt with a similar issue of apps seemingly paused in "waiting" and may help:
    App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
    Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
    Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
    If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

  • Is there a way to tell which apps are using data while on WIFI?

    Hello,
    I have just purchased an iPad Air 2.  I use my phone as a mobile WIFI hot spot to connect to the internet when I do not have a regular WIFI connection available.  151 MBs of data were consumed over an hour and a half or so.  I played about an hour of Hearthstone, but I know from tethering my phone to my laptop that it usually doesn't use anywhere near that amount of data.
    I would like to track down which applications might be using the data so that I can avoid using them while connected to my phone.  Is there any way to do this?

    Thanks for the quick response.  That's a little disappointing though.  Is there an app on the store?

  • I want to change the boring theme. It's to hard to tell which tab is opened the shades of grey are too close! I hate it!!!!

    Hey Apple!
    Please work your magic on this pretty simple task...
    There are tons of us Safari users that would like to see choices for Themes and Color on the Safari Frame. We want to be able to change the boring depressing Grey to more Cheerful Colors. It's to hard to tell which tab is opened the shades of grey are too close! I hate it!!!! To many times I've closed out the wrong tab. I'm sure I'm not the only one out there! We love you Apple but really, what happened to "Creativity"?! and
    Fun!?!

  • Is there a app that will tell all apps that are running and possibly how much battery power they use?

    Is there a app that will tell all apps that are running and possibly how much battery power they use?

    You don't need an app to do this.  Here's how you get the battery info.  Go to Settings>More>Battery. This will show you all the active apps and their individual battery usage.

    Slow performance after installing Yosemite on an older Mac is often caused by inadequate memory. Although you can install the upgrade on a Mac with 2 GB of memory, experience has shown that at least 4 GB is needed for full performance.
    Select About This Mac from the Apple menu. If you have less than 4 GB of memory, and your model has upgradable memory, install as much as it can take, or at least that much. Any reputable RAM vendor will have a web form in which you can select the Mac model and be directed to compatible parts.
    Memory in the MacBook Air is not upgradable. If that's what you have, you should restore the previous system from a backup, or replace the machine. Ask if you need guidance.
    The Etrecheck report clearly shows that SylvieRose has a Macbook Pro, not a Macbook Air and that there are only 2 GB  RAM installed.  The Etrecheck report can be very informative if one takes the time to examine it.

  • How can I tell which apps were purchased on my account?

    I did search for answers but couldn't find one that fit.
    I have an iPhone and so does our son. 
    Early on my son purchased apps on my account and downloaded them on HIS iphone.  Eventually, I got him his own iPhone account and so he has also purchsed apps on his own account and downloaded them on his phone. 
    When we open iTunes and connect his phone, there is a list of apps that are on his phone.
    QUESTION
    How can we tell which apps were purchased on HIS iTunes acct and which were purchased on MY iTunes acct? 
    I don't want to DO anything with the apps, I just want to know one from another. 
    Thanks in advance!!

    List of authorized computers - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4090165 - there isn't one.

  • I can't get my applications to open to full screen. The apps are opening at about 75% and I cant figure out how to get them to open to the full screen.

    I cant get my applications to open to full screen. The apps are opening up to about 75% and i cant get them to extend to full screen.

    Which applications are you talking about? 
    Example: Browser application - At the bottom right corner of a browser window you will see a small square with 3 diagnal lines.  Place your cursor in that corner to stretch out your window to full screen.  The next time you open your browser app, the window will be full screen.

  • I'm new to iPad. I've installed some apps. The apps are "open" even when I go to something else or close that page. I just did some updates on other apps and see those apps are still "open". How do I close them?  I'm sure it's draining my battery. Help!

    If you are referring to the fact that, in the App Store app, after you have installed or updated an App, that the Install button changes to now read "Open" then this does not mean that the App is Open and running. It means, rather, that, if you touch the button now marked "Open", the App will be started and "Open". It's just a quick way to get to the App you have just installed or updated.

  • How to tell which maps are the latest?

    I have Maps v3.01 loaded on my 6710 Navigator (came with free worldwide licence) and Map Loader v3.0.28 on my PC.
    How do I tell which maps are loaded on my Nokia and what version/date the maps availalble on Map Loader are?
    Map Loader does not state which maps are already on my phone, nor does it state the date or version of the maps which can be uploaded.
    Obviously, I'd like to install newer versions of my country map if and when it is available, but how do I know which version is available and which I already have?
    Ovi.com does not seem to be the answer either as all maps were downloaded using Map Loader.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you already have a free worldwide license and V 3.01 is working well for you then you are right to leave it for the moment. I hear of problems  searching for addresses etc with V3.03.  Can always update later when everything is sorted.
    I believe if you delete all your maps and then use Ovi Suite to download new maps, Ovi Suite will at least tell you what maps you have on your phone. I haven;t tried it myself because I can't stand Ovi Suite.
    Speed warning is available for Ireland but just like you I have to import the speed camera locations as landmarks. Hopefully, we will see these as new features in future updates.

  • I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen

    I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen
    Whenever, I have pages open or any other app I press the home button twice, and then I swipe to the right and obtain the menu that allows me to alter brightness or sound. At this point I press play and nothing works. However, once I go back to my youtube page, and press the play button then it works. If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

    just click the serial number in itunes ... geeze... just kidding
    you might be able to find it on the mac...
    in finder do your username under places then library then application support then MobileSync then Backups
    the shortest folder name should be the UDID
    of course that assumes it ever made a backup...
    if it made more than one there will be some -date-blah on the end...
