iPhone iPod: What’s wrong with you?!

quitting apps

Funny thing is while reading this page and listening to the iPod it quit! Anyway came acrossed it somewhere that you can quit apps! For instance, maps takes alot of ram, so if u had it open at any point after your last reset it is still taking your resources. Solution? Open the app that u want to close and hold the home button until it goes away. Apparently it is "quit." seems to work well but its mundane to close every app u open especially when u use third party apps like me. Hope it helps!

Not gonna read the whole three pages but this same problem happens to lots of people with the iPod Touch as well. It's a known bug and hopefully it will be fixed sometime soon. Just read up on the Touch forums and you will see all the same types of messages. The Touch uses the same iPod firmware as the iPhones iPod.

....and I just saw this thread is very old!

Solution

That has happened to me once or twice.

There are two remedies to your problem.

I'm not an iPhone expert but i think it has to do with you iphone being low on ram. If you turn off (or restart) your phone once a day, you probably shouldn't ever have that problem again.

one thing i do is to quit an application (think of it as quiting an application as opposed to just closing the window) you hold down the home button. I do this when i access an application on my phone temporarily that i won't need to access for a while (for instance like the stocks feature). Just hold down the home button for a few seconds, and then it will quit it.

don't spread rumors

Restore your iPhone's software. It will fix the problems you are having. If not, you have corrupted RAM.

that is definately not the case. you don't have corrupted ram. that's a corrupted idea.

Question: Where is the rest of your post? You seem to get some of the way through it, but then stop suddenly, and post a link to a blog.

Why do I need to go to your blog to read what you started to post here on MacRumors?

It's kind of weird, but these forums are the comments for a macrumors iPhone blog - if you start at the blog it makes sense but its kind of annoying to start at the forum, click the blog to read the story and then click back to the forum to post.

I'm guessing it has to do with the blog post being longer than the forums will allow for a post.

Katie's blog is no longer active and her location says "owie land" so I hope she is ok.

No problems here on mine when using the 'iPod' and EDGE at the same time. The only thing that I wish is that when playing music online using the quicktime player is that it would let me tab that and then go to a different page.

I think the problem could be solved by adding meat to your diet.

you sound like my kinda girl!

Lunch time. I take off my embroidered toy store apron, clock out in the POS, and scamper off to Whole Foods for a quick lunch of vegetarian lentil and spinach soup and a ciabatta roll.

Eating my soup, browsing the internet on EDGE, listening to some sweet, sweet Matt the Electrician. I click into a text box on Facebook and start typing. The music cuts off, and I return to the home screen.

I think there’s something wrong with my iPhone, the "best iPod ever made."

I restart the music, and begin typing again. Safari quits! I repeat this little dance a few more times until I finally give up on the internet and just listen to music and people-watch until my lunch break is over. How un-technological of me. It’s 2007! There should be internet on my iPod.. err… iPhone!
