Closing Applications
Applications that you open stay open in the background if you are not using them. If you want
to close an application (stop it from running in the background), you can tap the X in the
upper-right corner of the application, or you can do it with Task Manager. Closing an
application is usually not necessary; but if you’re concerned about power usage or want to
free up memory, close some or all applications.
1. Press and hold OK to open Task Manager.
2. Do one of the following:
To view programs in order of memory usage, tap
Usage. (Tap again to reverse the order.)
To close one or more individual programs, check the
boxes next to the programs and select Stop Selected.
To close all programs except the ones you specify,
check the boxes next to the programs you do not want
to close, press Menu (right softkey), and select Stop All
but Selected.
To close all open programs, select Stop All.
Tip
If an X appears in the upper-right corner of an application screen, you can
tap the
X with the stylus to close the application. You can turn this feature
on and off or change it so that tapping
X sends the application to the
background but does not close it. Press and hold OK to open Tas k
Manager, select the Button tab, and then select the option you want.
You can also close applications by tapping the Running Programs icon in
the upper-right corner of the Today screen and then tapping the Close icon
by the program name.
