When I double click Home button, all of my apps don't show in the bar -- only the four that reside there. Did a reset last night to fix the Home button (it sort of works now) but now this. Any ideas on why I can't do the fast app switch now?

When I double click Home button to change apps quickly, only the four apps that reside on the task bar show. All of my apps would show prior to my reset of the iPad last night (to fix the Home button). Any ideas on how to fix?

My undertanding is that when you double-click the home button, the apps that are shown are those that are currently active.  The reason you are not seeing all of them is that not all of them are active.  Before you can access an app in the multitask bar, it has to be turned on first.  As a test, try accessing the Notes application.  Return to the home screen by clicking the Home button ONCE.  Once the home screen appears, double click the home button to bring up the multitasking bar.  The Notes app should be on the far left.

  • Re ios7 update for ipad2. How do you stop all sites showing when you double click bottom button?

    Re ios7 update - when I double click bottom button all sites visited come up as you scroll across screen. How can I ensure that no sites are shown or how do I delete sites visited?

    Double clicking the Home button brings up multitasking. These are all the apps that are open in the background. You can close them by swiping the app preview page up to the top of the screen.
    If you mean Safari websites, tap the tabs button (bottom right) and swipe each tab to the left to close them.

  • Safari icon has disappeared from my iPad. Will not show up even when I double click home button to show history.

    When I opened my iPad today, the icon for Safari browser was gone. It is nowhere to be found; not even when I double click home to bring up recently used programs. I don't see any other ones that are affected this way. Any help will be appreciated.

    Settings - General - Restrictions - Safari = ???

    Those are not necessarily running. It's a list of previously opened apps for the most part. You can flick the cards upwards to get rid of them.

    Thanks.

    If the OP has this much RAM in their iMac, certain this Mac can run Mountain Lion.
    The reason it might not be installing is that 15 GBs of RAM.
    Your iMac should have (4) equal sized, 4 GB sticks of RAM for a total of 16 GBs.l
    If your iMac is only reporting that there is only 15 GBs of RAM, you have a RAM stick that is either not seated in its slot properly or is defective/going bad.
    This maybe the reason that it won't download it.
    Also could be you are running out of free space on your HD.
    You need, at least 15-20 % or greater free space left on your HD.

  • IPhone 6 freezing when I double click home button.

    It seems almost every time I double click the home button to bring up the multitasking window, my iPhone 6 freezes. I have iOS 8.1.2 and ATT. I have tried restoring from iTunes and from iCloud with no luck. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

    It sounds like your phone keeps freezing, even after restoring. You might want to take a look at this page for further options.

  • How or where can I find the Outlook mail that is located in the folder on my desktop?   I can open it but when I double click, it just makes up an email to be sent with the attachment.

    Apple moved my Outlook from my PC over to the MAC and it is now on my desktop but I cannot open it.  I click on the folder and when opened it has two folders, one for each of my email accounts and when I click on the one I want, it just makes a new email to be sent.  I even dragged it to the download folder and that did not good.
    It will also ask me to use another program to open it.  I click on Mail and again it makes another email.  HELP!!!  I have tons of emails that I need to keep tract of my work.  Any help would be wonderful.

  • Bridge won't open NEF files, when you double click them, using PS CC

    I have installed the latest version of PS CC and the Bridge, but when I go to my Nikon NEF files and double click to open them, they open up in some weird Window Photo Gallery, then I went to the preferences for bridge and reset the settings, and now when you double click on them nothing happens and they don't open at all.  I am using a PC with Windows 7.
    I have posted this question before, I need help, PLEASE

    If you go to the Bridge Preferences>File Type Associations what does it list as the default?
    If it doesn't list Adobe Photoshop CC you can use the Browse button to set it to
    the Photoshop.exe in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC

  • When I double click my IPAD screen there are apps at the bottom. How can I remove them?

    When I double click my IPAD screen I have apps at the bottom how can I remove them?

    If you are running iOS 6 or iOS 5, those apps are the recently used apps in the recents tray. You don't need to remove then from there, but if you want to do so, you have to close them. You do that by holding down on one of the app icons until they all wiggle, then tap the red minus sign to close the app. Do that to every app that you want to close. Tap the home button when you are done.

    Hello congratulations for the work you have been developing. The apple support has helped me greatly improve my Mac and better understand some applications. Recently my iPhoto has given me problems and I do not realize what is happening. When I double click a photo it does not appear ... or rather the background is black and only the zoom window appears. How to solve this? I've done a restoration of the library, but the problem remains. Thanks and good job.

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
