why 'clicking the X' doesn't close an app to VoiceOver?

Hi list, My mother uses a Mac, and whenever I have to take it to fix or install something, I find a bunch of apps open. This isn't a problem, but they're all empty. Safari, messages, Mail, and others are all there when I command-tab, but all report "has now windows" when I switch to any of them.

In Windows, when you close the last window of an app, the app closes. It is no longer in memory. It is no longer listed as a running app, and is no longer in the app switcher. On OS X, it is possible to have an app open, without any windows of that app open. When the last window of an app is clo

Re: Apple music conspiracy.

All I know is that musicians are not making as much money as they did when selling albums and records in stores. This is because people ca now buy singles instead of the entire set. I still prefer to buy physical records because I know it will fund the musicians more. Vaughn On 12/8/15, Anders Hol

Vaughn, I’m not sure this is true. While it’s probably true that the artist makes less they also get to keep more of the take per sale than they would have with a label. Remember, Apple for example if memory servers gives you 70 cents on the dollar where you might only get 10 or 20 with a regu

Re: why 'clicking the X' doesn't close an app to VoiceOver?

Ah, that's why. Cmd-tab is the only way I switch between apps, so windowless ones popping up as I do that get in the way of ones still in use. I can see how using other means of navigating apps would eliminate the problem, but I've not found anything faster than cmd-tab for moving between apps.

I almost exclusively use Launchpad. It lets me find exactly the app I’m looking for, extremely quickly. For example, to launch pages, I can press the launchpad key, type “pag” and hit enter. If there are multiple matches, I can keep typing to narrow the search, or use left/right arrows to move be
