Q: ibooks using all memory
Hi, for the past few weeks (i think it was after the last software update, but not sure), ibooks has been consuming all my memory, even though there are no books. I had four ibooks that were about 500mb, and I tried deleting them, but it didnt change anything.
I am using an ipad mini with 16gb storage, and ibooks says it is using 7.8gb, 7.3 when I delete my books. It also keeps re-downloading the books after I delete them. I even went into my account online to try "hiding" the books, which worked for a day, and then the ipad re-downloaded them again.
Whatever the issue is, it has rendered my ipad useless because it has consumed all the storage, and causes all the apps to crash.
I have tried soft reset as well, to no avail. I would think a hard reset might solve it, but I would like to avoid this at all costs.
iPad Mini, iOS 9.2.1
