    Hi norway09,

     

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!

     

    I understand that Safari on your iPad is not working as expected. In this situation there are two different troubleshooting steps that I would recommend.

     

    First, please use the information in the attached article to clear your history and cookies from Safari.

     

    Safari web settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

     

     

    Clear information from your device

    To clear your history and cookies from Safari in iOS 8, tap Settings > Safari > Clear History and Website Data. In iOS 7 or earlier, tap Clear History and tap Clear Cookies and Data.

    To clear other stored information from Safari, tap Settings > Safari > Advanced > Website Data > Remove All Website Data.

    To visit sites without leaving a history, turn on private browsing.

     

    After that process has been completed, I would suggest completely closing Safari and then opening it fresh using the instructions located in the next attached article.

     

    Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support

     

    Best regards,

    Joe
