Q: Why can't I access iBooks store any longer?

I Can no longer access the iBooks store through the iBooks app. This only started in the last week or so after downloading IOS 9 and 9.01. The Featured,

NY Times icons etc on bottom on iBooks screen no longer bring me to iBooks. I just get a blank screen whe I hit those icons. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to correct it?  Thank you.

iPad Air, iOS 9.0.1

    This is happening to me as well. I can't add any new books to my iBooks program. I can get to the Internet just fine. It is only the iBooks program that is affected.

    I was finally able to get to the iBooks store by turning off my iPad completely and restarting it.  However, the next time I went to the iBooks app a day or so later, I could not access the store.  So I turned the iPad off and on again, and voila, the store was accessible.  It's kind of annoying to have to turn the iPad off and on.  Obviously, there's some glitch/bug in iBooks. I also can access iBooks through my iPhone without a problem, but that's a pretty small window to view.

     

    Interestingly, when I tried to reply to this message through my iPad, the reply button didn't work.  I had to go to my PC to reply.

     

    Hope this is helpful.

    I have tried this several times with no results.
