On my iphone 6S my apps will not open - the apps are listed in "settings" - they also appear within the apps store - I can update the apps in the apps store - once updated the "open" box appears - but when I push "open" the app does not open (nothing happens) - all of my apps ( with exeception of Apple apps) have disappeared from my screen - I am suddenly appless - this happened when I unsuccessfully attempted to back up my phone on Itunes - when I connected the phone to Itunes, an error message appeared on itunes (cannot connect message) and my apps disappeared from the phone - help!!!!!

Have you tried closing the apps? Double click the home button to reveal the multitasking screen. Hold down on one of the apps there. The icons should start to wiggle. There is also a red buttonn with a line through it at the top left hand corner. Tap that to shut down the app completely as if you were force closing an app on the mac or windows. Do this to all of the apps in the multitasking bar.



Hope this helps
