Restore from backup

Dec 19, 2014 4:52 PM in response to ckuanby Orvfromlakeville,I Restarted several times, but it didn't work. It isn't backed up so that isn't an option. I don't know the implications of doing a restore as new. Does that mean I will need to reinstall all Apps etc.?

Dec 19, 2014 6:54 PM in response to Orvfromlakevilleby Skydiver119,Try to force quit the app
Force close an app
Double tap the home button. When you see the app previews on the screen scroll sideways if needed to get the preview in question on the screen. Flick that preview up and off the screen to close the app. Single tap the home button or home screen preview to exit the mode.

Dec 19, 2014 8:07 PM in response to Orvfromlakevilleby bobseufert,It sounds like it's time to make a iTunes or iCloud backup, then doing the restore ckuan has already mentioned. If like me you don't have a computer you can't make an iTunes backup. So make a iCloud backup then take your mini to the Apple Store, describe the problems and ask if they can do the restore for you.
