    <p>I'm making an app in which i need to show the names of apps running in background. I did R&amp;D on it and came to know that we can know only about Apple's apps like Photos , Camera etc. But I couldn't know how. Please help me if you know how to get <strong>JUST NAMES OF BACKGROUND RUNNING APPS</strong> For Background running processes I have used following Method</p> <pre><code>- (NSArray *)runningProcesses { int mib[4] = {CTL_KERN, KERN_PROC, KERN_PROC_ALL, 0}; size_t miblen = 4; size_t size; int st = sysctl(mib, miblen, NULL, &amp;size, NULL, 0); struct kinfo_proc * process = NULL; struct kinfo_proc * newprocess = NULL; do { size += size / 10; newprocess = realloc(process, size); if (!newprocess){ if (process){ free(process); } return nil; } process = newprocess; st = sysctl(mib, miblen, process, &amp;size, NULL, 0); } while (st == -1 &amp;&amp; errno == ENOMEM); if (st == 0){ if (size % sizeof(struct kinfo_proc) == 0){ int nprocess = size / sizeof(struct kinfo_proc); if (nprocess){ NSMutableArray * array = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; for (int i = nprocess - 1; i &gt;= 0; i--){ NSString * processID = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"%d", process[i].kp_proc.p_pid]; NSString * processName = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"%s", process[i].kp_proc.p_comm]; NSDictionary * dict = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithObjects:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:processID, processName, nil] forKeys:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"ProcessID", @"ProcessName", nil]]; [processID release]; [processName release]; [array addObject:dict]; [dict release]; } free(process); return [array autorelease]; } } } return nil; } </code></pre> <p>If you think its impossible then kindly have a look to this app <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sys-activity-manager-for-memory/id447374159?mt=8" rel="noreferrer">http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sys-activity-manager-for-memory/id447374159?mt=8</a> . I have also got a solution but its not a proper way (I've mentioned in the last comment below this question).</p> <p>Thanks.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
