1.Hello, so the old note 10.1 has a "resize/multi window" button on the top right corner, how do I resize the internet browser in the 2014 edition w/o going into multi-window mode? As in just dragging the window a bit smaller?
2. Also, for settings - is it possible for settings to be in multi-window mode? I'd rather have it on the side so I can browse the internet while playing with the settings?
3. Anyway to close the internet browser by just pressing "x" in the corner or somewhere?
4. Also, how to resize apps like gallery w/o doing multiwindow?
5. Anyone else experience lag a bit w/ BT keyboard? When I get the word "English (US)" on bottom I always experience a bit of lag? Fix? I disabled onscreen keyboard.
6. For registering the $600 dollar parks, it keeps saying incorrect serial number and MAC address? I cannot seem to register.
Thanks!

You don't. If you want a resizable window open the browser in Pen Window using Air Command. Once you do, when you minimize it, you'll get a floating icon that lets you use your N10.1-14 normally but by clicking on the icon you can then open the browser at any time. A Multi View option like what you know as "Cascade" on the old Note is coming in the 4.4/M-UX update.

No. But using the above you can open a browser and have it running on top of anything else you want.

If you have a single browsing session up clicking "X" on its tab closes it and ends your Internet session (hitting "back" exists out of the browser). If you have multiple tabs open hit the menu button and select "close all."

No resizing, other than Pen Window apps, until 4.4/M-UX.

I get the pop-up but it doesn't cause any lag. I'm using a Samsung keyboard.

Do you have a Groupon refurb? It may have been previously registered. If not, contact Samsung support they've been pretty helpful according to those that posted issues getting the perks credit.

Woah, thanks. This was so helpful.
Another 3 questions:
1. Last one Moon reader+ supported multi-window and where I would just minimize moon reader and have the internet in the background? Is there any way to do this or do I wait until next update for casacae mode? Moon reader+ is a ebook reader btw. I was also able to move Moon Reader+ around wherever I wanted. I can't seem to do that here.
2. Bluetooth keyboard tends to lag in LectureNotes (badly) and has a slight, but annoying lag in QuickOffice. This doesn't seem to happen in Polaris Office, or when I do short typing. But once I type longer it starts lagging and sometimes English(US) pops up and cause more lag. Anyway to fix this? thanks.
I have Microsoft Wedge and this worked perfectly on my Note 10.1 2012.
Also, anyway to resize and move applications around that used to support multi-window? Like resizing any way you want to, not just to the right or left. How come some had multi-window in previous Note, but not anymore in this one? Like lectureNotes?
3. Another odd one is Polaris Office 5 says it cannot open a .docx file right after I downloaded it because it isn't supported. But it works fine when I look for it in file browsing in PO5.

Root and install multi window manager to set any app multi window including settings and install 4 way multi window to be able to Just tap the browser from the multi window tab to open up in a floating resizeable window like per window. Oh and use 4 apps simultaneously as well,

So, no multi-window feature anymore?

I'm talking about Android multitasking -- the one you get when you long-press the Home button. NOT multi-window (which is for the Note II when you long-press the Back button).
How many apps can appear in the multitasking list? Mine seems to peak at 19 or 20. Also, how come some apps fail to appear in the multitasking list? Like when I view an email from a notification, of course the GMail app opens. Then I get to the homescreen, and if I decide to view the multitasking list, GMail isn't there. Could someone point me to a detailed explanation of the mechanics of the multitasking list on Android?
Thanks a bunch.
Ive found that if an app doesmt show up i just close multitasking window and reopen it and it is usually there. Only happens on my note 2 lol.
As for the max i have no idea. I only have 16 at the moment. But i rarely use the list.

I did a search on this and found others asking and frustrated but no answers. Perhaps someone here can lead me in the right direction.
I notice the annoyance of this in landscape mode and I am talking about the s-pen auto scroll. Lets say you are using Dolphin browser and you want to type something in the keyboard pepper up taking 50% of the screen The tabs of the browser take Up another 15% . This leaves a small window to Work in. When you use the s-pen to scroll around auto-scroll jvmqs around at full speed this makes it difficult to use the pen to click on the next box.
Anyone had this problem?

Scroll down and you will see an option to disable SPen auto scroll. It drived me crazy too until I found it
When I download an app from the store, it places a tile on the Metro.
So, then I launch the app, in this case it was an RDP app.
I have another bigger screen, and would like to move the app to that screen, I do not know how.
With the windows mstsc, I can minimize the window, and drag to the other monitor.
Grab at (or swipe from) the top of the window, drag downward just a little (the app will shrink to a window that follows your mouse or finger), and then drag it onto the other monitor. I think that works on 8.0, though I haven't actually tried. There's also a keyboard shortcut to send apps between monitors (aside from the Win7 standby of pressing Win+<left arrow or right arrow> a few times) but I don't know what it is and am not sure if it works with Metro.
Generally speaking, I recommend using mstsc. So far as I can tell, there's no actual advantage to the store app. It's nice enough, as Metro apps go, but that's not saying much.

From the reviews on youtube, it seems evident that Multi-View no longer supports multiple floating windows as the Note 10.1 1st gen has.
What happened? Is this downgrade a sign of things to come?

It's gone. Since Note 8 only 2 windows side by side are available. But now there is an option to open small floating window through Air Command, called Pen Window, only few apps are supported (calculator, web browser, youtube, few more). If smart people from this board can find a way to add other apps to Pen Window, then we're back to having floating windows.
Floating mode has been replaced by pen window. You can open up as many pen windows as you want in addition to the two side by side apps. It's actually better, we just need someone to produce a hack where we can add more apps to the pen window menu.

I believe I read somewhere about the Note 3 that someone (from XDA) figured out how to get any app to show up in the selection for pen windows. It's apparently a fairly simple modification, but one that has to be made to each app that you want to use as a floating app. All in all, I think we'll have any app we want floating around quite soon.

Ya I have the note 3 and its an apk which allows you to pick any app to show up in pen window. 100% something if not same app will show for note 2014
Necroing this thread. I have this very same issue on the Galaxy Note 10.1 (2012) that I upgraded to KitKat 4.4.2 , All was fine until I loaded my S-Note app to try do a floating window that I normally do and discovered there's no option any where to make the S-Note a window, just full screen. The floating S-Pen menu only gives the Action memo (not what I want) and the Pen window feature didn't even list S-Note among it, I looked further to see you can drag the icon into the Pen window but S-Note still will not launch in a window.
What is this apk file that allows multi-windows? What a downgrade to remove a very useful feature. I would float the S-Note in a window and pin it to take notes as I scroll through the Bible app during church. I can't believe Samsung didn't see the usefulness of that feature to not carry it over to the new OS.
I somehow removed some apps from qslides list of available apps to use. Quick memo is not in the list but quick memo is on the phone. I can use it if launched from app drawer. But launching it from quick settings or hitting the qslide button while in full screen it goes to the floating window and disappears. Also the phone app is in the qslide menu. When i try to use it, it the flosting window pops up but disappears. All was working fine before.
Has anyone run into this problem?
Any suggestions?

I guess quick memo was never in the qslide list even though it is a qslide app. its right there in the quick settings.
fixed the other problem with it some things not staying on float window by unchecking don't keep activities box in the developer options.
When I try to use my qslide messaging app, it opens the box coverin almost my entire screen, and I do not have access to the send button. So i have to blindly get to the real messaging app on my phone, open it so the qslide box goes away...HELLPPP
If you can't see the lower right corner of the window to resize it, tap the QSlide icon at the upper-left corner of the title bar.
Messaging error qslide
The messaging box is from top to bottom, there is no x, no send button, the ONLY way to get out of it is by opening the normal messaging app.
Post a screenshot so we can see what it looks like.

My Qslide is gone. Nothing happens when I swipe down. Has been gradually getting worse. Worked for awhile if I turned screen off and back on. Restarted phone twice. Nothing. Yes my screen is clean.
