How can I determine what is running in the background on my ipad?

I have had my Ipad for 6 months. I use wi-fi and cellular 250MB data plan. I have never exceeded 250 MB in a month. This month I ran out of data in 5 days. Also, I usually get a couple of days before I have to recharge. Now I need to recharge in less than a day. The only thing I can think is something is running in the background. Is there a way to see what is running in the background (this is my first apple product, I have always used windows products so I am not sure I am using the apple nomenclature), I have rebooted so I will see if that fixes the problem. I am curious to see what is happening in the background

A double click on the Home button will reveal a tray containing all apps that are currently running (suspended?).
Side swiping this will reveal as many as are active, with a swipe to the right when on the first display will reveal further controls for the iPad, mainly relating to the iPod part, but also containing a screen lock option I believe.
Click and hold any one of them till they 'jiggle' and show a - you can then click this to remove it, relaunching the app as required in the normal way.

PS Tap the Home button once to get out of this mode.

The new version of firefox does not shut down when I close the browser it continues running in the background. In addition it opens Adobe Reader for a brief time and then that closes. Everything worked fine before this new version.

Firefox automatically loaded a new version recently. The new version does not shut down when I close the browser it continues running in the background. In addition it opens Adobe Reader for a brief time and then that closes. Everything worked fine before this new version.

When I close my iPad it dosent really close it stays open and when I reopen it it goes to home

When I close my iPad it dosent really close it stays open and when I re-open it it goes immidiatly goes on home and my home button dosent work

I'm sorry, but I don't know what you mean by closing your iPad. Are you talking about shutting it down? Powering off?
And you say when you close it it doesn't stay closed and when you reopen it ??? If it doesn't stay closed....Whatever that is - how can it possibly reopen? It already is open based on what you are saying.
You also make it sound like the iPad is crashing and you are saying that the home button doesn't work. Do those two things have something to do with one another?

When I close Firefox and then come back to it later a box comes up that says it's already running. It says to close Firefox first but when I hit close nothing happens and the box comes up again. I have to shut down my computer and restart to get into Firefox again. If I can't get this fixed I will start using someone else. Someone told me a way to close Firefox but I forgot what they said.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== a couple of months ago

Hello Brian.
You don't need to restart your computer to open Firefox again: you just need to close it manually through your application manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC in Processes tab). Anyway, hopefully this support article is what you need:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+hangs
What's probably happening is that you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

You can only import photos from the camera roll into the computer. Is that the album that you are seeing?
Any albums that you create on the device itself (the iPad that is) cannot be transferred to your computer. iPad created albums do not contain copies of your photos but merely pointers to those photos so they do not actually exist in those albums.

How does iCloud prevent you from holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time? What will not let you hold down buttons on the iPad?

When I plug my iPad up to charge it says not charging, and my battery drains very quickly what can I do to fix?

There are two different types of adapters by Apple that look similar. One is a 5 Watt adapter used with iPhones and iPods. The other is a 10 Watt adapter used with the iPad. Other than looking at the text on the adapter, which is hard to read, you can tell the different by looking at the socket the pin part plugs into the adapter. The 5 Watt has two notches and the 10 Watt has only one notch.
Make sure you use the 10 Watt adapter with an iPad.

When I upgraded from v4 to v5 my bookmarks was lost. I do have the one that is in the firefox toolbar. Apparently I had a bookmarks add-on. V5 changed my browser how can I determine what the program was and if the bookmarks are still there?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

How do I determine what URL to use when launching to display a RH10 .htm page?

Hello,
We are implementing RoboHelp 10 for our online documentation and are sourcing it from Framemaker 11. I am trying to determine exactly what URL information the developers need to build for the launch to the specific IBM System i screen. Is anyone launching RoboHelp from a backend ERP system? If so, how did you determine what level to use when building the URL for that page? Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

It depends on whether you just want to open the help at the default topic or open context sensitive topics.
Both methods are described in Calling Help on my site and there is more good information at http://www.wvanweelden.eu

When I send an email it shows up in the sent folder as new, how do I fix this so it shows it as read automatically?

When I send an email it shows up in the sent folder as new, how do I fix this so it shows it as read automatically?

I don't want all my mail to be marked as read, just the sent messages. I set Thunderbird up on my new PC and whenever I send an email it goes to my sent folder like I want, but it shows up as a new or unread message. I have Thunderbird on my two other PC's and it doesn't act this way. On the other PC's when I send out an email, it shows up in my sent folder as read. That's the way I want it to act on my new PC. With the other two PC's I didn't have to do anything to the setting it was like that from the start.
I appreciate any help I can get in this matter. Thank you

Error Message regarding Facetime: I am getting this error message when I try to open Facetime on my iMac desktop "This beta version of FaceTime has expired." What does it mean? How do I get it to work again?

I am getting this error message when I try to open Facetime on my iMac desktop "This beta version of FaceTime has expired." What does it mean? How do I get it to work again?

The Beta version of Facetime is a free test/trial version that Apple placed on some computers in the past. It has expired -- to get a working Facetime version back you must go to the App store and purchase "Facetime for Mac" which will cost you 99 cents.

Has your problem been solved by the updates??
Have a similar problem. This MacBook opened all MS Office programs in Dec2012 but no longer does in Feb2013. Went to Microsoft/mac/downloads but none of the three updates would run citing a problem "version of software needed to run this update was not found on this volume".
MacBook: 7.1, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz
Microsoft Office 2011: version 14.2.3
