Which programs are open?

I like to quit applications I am not using to speed up the macbook. In Leopard how do you know which programs are open so I can quit them? there are no arrows pointing to the programs that are open.

Look closely on the refletion of the icon and you will see a little light blue color, that informs you that's it is open.

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?

Please help.
PS I have also tried starting in save mode and still have the same problem.

Hi,
As
BurrWalnut mentioned, first please run a virus scan to eliminate virus infection (if AV program is not opened in adobe)
The files association could be corrupted in your situation, apart from the solution posted in the first reply, I also suggest you check Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set your Default Programs or Associate a file type or protocol
with a progra,, manually check the association and check if it can do some help.
Add: another way to open restore point is launching it in recovery console, please refer to this guide

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?

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.

How can I tell which apps or programs are open at any time. At a recent visit to the Genius at my local Apple store, the "Genius" told me that too many apps or programs are running in the background. I'm using Mountain Lion on a McBook Pro

I was told that my Mac has to work extra hard because there are too many apps and/or programs open in the background. How can one tell what is open?? It must be something which is not normally visible to the user??
Hans

Thanks, I have looked at that several times but I can't detect any one item which would indicate overusage. The small chart (indicator bars) are much on the low side and the onse which show are basically green? Not sure what the person at the Genius Bar saw so I'm somewhat puzzled.

How to see which programs are attached to which desktop?

I have used the option to attache software programs to different desktops in Mountain Lion. When I hava not used a specific program in a while and then need to, I cannot always remember which desktop I anchored it to. I know I can go to the launch and click on it there, but having it attached to a desktop, it seems like I should be able to find it that way. Is there a way to quickly see which one it is attached to without opening the app from the app launchpad or opening the app folder? I want to be able to just click to the desktop. In Tiger I think, we could click on spaces in the menu bar and see a list. Just wondering if there is a quick way in Mountain lion that I'm not aware of.
thanks!
Michelle

Hi, thanks for your reply, I am using mission control right now, I was just hoping there was a way that is similar to spaces in the toolbar.. and I'm guessing some of it is habit with how we think about it.
I realize why I was wondering this today. I had mail open and then I opened imessage and it opened on top of mail, which told me I did not have it anchored to any specific desktop. So I was trying to decide which one to attach it to and realized I did not know how to tell which ones already had something anchored to it. If they are open, I could see by mission control. But I did not want to open everything to see where it was anchored. I rememberd being able to click on spaces in tiger and I could see the list. So I hoped ML would have some place to see the same info.

Possible to tell which programs are accessing the internet? Bandwidth?

I seem to have intermittent, severely limited access to the internet at times.
Is it possible to tell if a particular program running in the background is either downloading or scanning or "online" in some manner...?
Is it possible on a Mac to see how much bandwidth, memory, cpu cycles, etc. particular programs are taking...in a window similar to that which opens on a PC after pressing CTRLALTDEL ?
thank you

Check out Activity Monitor in your Applications/Accessories folder.

Pointer moving all around and programs are opening

I am trying to use my trackpad as I always have, but my mouse keeps moving around (kind of like it has a mind of it's own). I also find that programs are randomly opening up and it feels like someone else is in control of my computer. Help please!

I recently had the same thing happen. I updated and the next day the track pad started working erractically. Tried all sorts of things, but cleaning it solved my problem.
To fix it, I turned the computer off, used a cleaner for my eyeglasses and made sure I cleaned the trackpad really well. I used a tip of a needle to clean out the edges of the trackpad, as it was dirtier than I thought. Maybe something about the update makes the trackpad more sensitive to dirt. In other threads I read not to use hand lotions before using trackpad and to keep the trackpad as clean as possible.
This completely solved the problem.

Can time machine be set to not back up when certain programs are open?

Yes, time machine can be turned off manually before playing games downloading a large file, etc. Is there any way for time machine to not back up while a specified game or program is open? Or is there an app that helps with this? Thanks!

Thanks for the links, but I don't see in the pondini links, the scenario I am asking about.
Time Machine can easily back up multiple internal and/or directly-connected external drives and partitions simultaneously (but Time Machine cannotback up data that's on a network).
From the first link.

... Please note that my iMac internal drive is backing up to external drive number 1 using time machine. I want my pictures on external drive two and those backed up to external drive three. So are you saying that if I have 500 GB of pictures on drive number 2, I will need a third drive that is at least 1 TB?
the confusion starts in your above statement...
There should be Only One Time Machine Drive.
