My Ipad won't let me open any apps

If it's the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

If it's all apps including Apple's then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I'm having trouble with my iPad 2 . I downloaded a new app for my daughter and it will not let me open or access any of the new apps! It says I downloaded them and all but will not let me open them ! I'm so lost . All my other apps are fine and they work fine. But the ones I've downloaded tonight will not open and it says I downloaded them. And then I tried to delete them because there not working and it's not letting me. Please someone help me. I don't understand why all of a sudden the new apps will not open but will download. And my iPad is up to date with iOS I checked and made sure. Please anyone help me Can any of you help me PLEASE thank you

Try downloading another app - any free app is fine. See if that helps.

If not - try this.

Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Did you try rebooting the iPad like I suggested in my post above? King Penguin also suggested in his post - the reset that is. Give that a try.

You would be much better off posting your own question so that other people will see it and respond to you. You latched onto a solved discussion and many times people overlook those, because they are already solved.

Thanks. This has worked for me.🙂🙂🙂
