Sometime when i open a program, for instance, QuickTime. When i close the video, the program is still running but not showing in dock. When i display open applications by pressing cmd+alt+esc it i still running?
Here's an expample. You can see that quick time is still running, but clearly not showing in the dock. (Sorry for Danish language on screenshot)
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)
I have this very same problem too. In my case, it's specific to the Preview app only. At least, that's the only app that I've noticed.
I've done all the proper troubleshooting and maintenance stuff but it still happens. Although I don't know what negative this causes my system, I'd be interested in finding out what is going on.
My Mac is an iMac 27" (late 2013), 3TB Fusion, 10.9.1.
Thanks,
Marcus
Try command Tab to see the heads up view of open apps.
Even though no windows open it will be active in the Menu bar (top.)
Command q will quit the app
Hi Leroy,
I have no problem quitting the app. I'm just wondering why it still remains a running app but not showing in the dock.
Program is running, but not showing in dock?
