Apps close right after opening - IOS 5

Just upgraded my ipad 2 to ios 5. Some apps that worked fine before upgrading ios, now close a few seconds after opening them. Any clues on how to solve this? (already tried reboot, delete app and re-install... doesn't work)

I was under the impression that any apps that you currently had on your iPad would work with the new updated iOS. However, I can't remember why I even think that but I probably read here on this site.
In any event, I believe the overwhelming majority of your apps should still work even if some will not under the new iOS. What I'm saying is that there may be something else going on that will require something additional on your part - perhaps restoring your device to factory settings and then restore to your backup.
iBooks is an Apple App but there are other reasons why the apps could be crashing. You could try closing all of the apps in the recents tray and restart and see if that helps, but you may need to restore your device(s) if nothing else works.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Creative Cloud closes right after opening.

    Hello.
    My creative cloud apps close right after I open them.
    For an example I'll take photoshop. I click it, I get the photoshop logo.
    After the logo disappears I get the Photoshop screen. But it only remains open for a few seconds, and then closes right after.
    No error messages, no warning, it just closes.
    It's not just PS, every app I have installed has the same reaction.
    I have tried:
    The font thing I found on here. - Didn't work
    Reinstalling the apps - Didn't work
    Reinstalling Creative Cloud - Didn't work

  • Why do apps close immediately after opening?

    I updated to iOS 4.3.3 on my iPad, now my apps close immediately after I open them.
    Built-in apps are OK, but all my added apps no longer run!
    Help!
    I have rebooted using the sleep button held down for 10 seconds.   No joy.
    Now, I was advised to hold down sleep button and home circle button at same time and disregard the red bar... this reboots to Apple circle, but still apps close really fast after I try to open them.
    This actually started several hours after my update, not right away, but that is all that changed.
    Very frustrating!

    Jeanne ... You answered my post in a totally different thread but I did read it. If the problem is in the OS, why do the built in Apple apps not cause the iPad to crash? That reasoning makes no sense to me. Did you try closing all of the apps like I suggested and then restart?
    Another way to approach this is to remove all of the apps from your iPad. Do this by removing them when you sync. Simply uncheck all of the non Apple apps and sync. Then - one or two apps at a time- add them back on to the iPad by resyncing. Use those one or two apps and see if they crash. If they don't crash, add one or two more apps and try those. Keep repeating the process until the iPad starts to crash again. You should be able to narrow down which app is causing the problem.
    Are you sure that all of these apps are compatible with 4.3.3. as well? Check in the app store and make sure that they are.

  • Every CC app closes immediately after opening

    Hey there
    I've seen this question asked over and over again with a different answer most times. When I launch any CC app (i.e. DW & Photoshop), they'd close right after they finish loading. Only notable exception is Lightroom... but of course, that's not lightroom I need right now.
    - I cleared my previous CS6 install, even removed flash player. Ran Ccleaner twice including multiple rebbots. All fresh from any Adobe stuff.
    - I do not have GROWL installed on my system.
    - I did sign in/out/in the creative cloud app.
    - I did try different install location.
    - I tried ALL CAPS and no caps for my login.
    I got my 1 year subscription paid upfront; this is friday night &  I'm VERY upset as I do have work to do !
    Can someone please help ?
    Greg

    Hey there sorry to hear you're facing the same pb.
    Let me save you hours with the support queues. You won't fix this. Simple.
    The only thing that worked was to reimage my system. On a fresh install it worked right away. It's painful but really so much quicker than the time i spent trying to rootcause with the support folks on the phone.
    Once it's behind you, things are good.

  • Premiere CC closes right after opening it.

    Everytime i try open Premiere, photoshop or after effects they immediately close out without any warning or explanation. I also have lightroom from the cloud and that works perfectly. There are no error messages all of the programs simply just close right after they open. I have the programs installed onto a different drive as well, not sure if that help out with anything. Help! I bought these programs i'd like to use them to continue working!!!!

    See my reply in your other message Lightroom is the only program that will run

  • Final Cut Express HD (3.5) closes right after opening?

    Hi,
    I believe years ago I had this same issue and it was as simple as deleting the preferences (??).
    Basically, what's happening is I just installed FCE HD (3.5) on my G4. I meet the system requirements to run the application AND Soundtrack Pro and LiveType open and run fine. FCE closes immediately after opening and then I get an error: "The Application Final Cut Express Quit Unexpectedly."
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Yeah, sorry for being so confusing. That's exactely what I did. Since my main HD is 500Gb and my secondary drive is 120Gb, I just copied all the necessary files to the 500, formatted the 120, reinstalled OSX, and booted to it. The intention was to let the FCE software think it was installing on a fresh drive (which, it was).
    However, even then it won't let me install FCE. Just LT and Soundtrack. ?? I'm a bit confused because the system requirements for Soundtrack and LT are the same for FCE.
    I'm trying to install it on a Dual 1.25ghz G4 Quicksilver with 1.5Gb Ram. ??
    The funny thing is I WAS able to install the complete program initially when I got it. I had a previous copy of Final Cut Express (1) on my main drive. I ran the FCE HD installer, and the program installed just fine. However, it kept closing right after it would open. I figured it was a preference conflict between the newer version (3.5) and the old version (1.1). So, I've done my best trying to erase all evidence of FCE ever being on the drive and still get nowhere ??
    Thanks!

  • ITunes closes right after opening

    My iTunes started "performing an illegal operation" right after opening, then closing, a few days ago. I've tried every trick I know, been through every support scenario on their website, and looked at all kinds of forums to try and fix the problem, but nothing's been working. I've found out that the "quicktimeh264.qtx" file is the problem, but I have no idea what to do. I've uninstalled and reinstalled both iTunes and Quicktime, and that didn't help. Any ideas?

    Sorry, wrong forum, I'll repost it in the right one.

  • IDVD 7.1.2 closes right after opening in OS 10.9.5

    I have a 27-inch iMac (Mid 2010) with a 2.93 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory and a 1TB SATA Internal Hard Drive.  I have the most current issue of iDVD (7.1.2) which worked fine when I created a DVD on August 24, 2014.  I then upgraded my OS to Mavericks (10.9.5) on September 24, 2014.  On October 12, I attempted to make a DVD from a short video I had taken and iDVD closes or crashes 10 to 15 seconds after opening.  This leads me to believe that for some reason it is not compatible with Mavericks.
    I am wondering if this is the case or if there is a fix for this.  If not is there another DVD creating program available in the App store that would work as good or better that I could purchase to solve this dilemma.

    Try this basic troubleshooting fix:
    1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
    User/Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents of IDVD'S cache folder: User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD.
    3 - launch IDVD and try again.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If you're running Mavericks or Yosemite go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

  • IPhone apps close immediately after opening

    I have tried :
    - iPhone reboot (several times)
    - install a new app through iTunes (several times)
    - deauthorize and reauthorize the computer (several times)
    - uninstall all apps and reinstall
    - reset all iPhone settings
    - iPhone restore
    - scour all discussion threads for solutions
    to no avail. This all started after weeks of needing to reauthorize the computer every sync, then halfway syncing when I was away from an internet connection. I stopped it in attempt to not lose all of the apps, and it didn't delete the apps, but then they would close just after launch. Any more ideas? Thanks.

    I used to have the same problem. the iPhone was acting weird so I tried to reboot it but it didn't work so I forced-rebooted it (holding Power and Home simultaneously) and since then all the apps that didn't came with iPhone fail to launch (you see the first screen for half a sec then you're back to the home screen).
    It disappeared when I synced it with iTunes.

  • Apps close immediately after opening?

    yesterday i upgraded my iphone 3gs to iOS4, all was fine i thought until i wanted to watch the french get knocked out the world cup using the itv world cup 2010 app (england only?)
    i open the app, it then closes immediately! so i turn off phone, turned it back on then opened the app again, it attempts to open, then it closes after a couple of seconds
    so i delete the app from the iphone, and also my itunes library. then i re-downloaded it.
    synced my iphone and then checked the app again and it still WON'T open!
    so i tried my other apps and the only other one i can see that also closes upon opening is the BatteryDoctor Pro app which i paid for!
    is anyone else having this problem?

    which app mate? or both of them?
    only a bit miffed at the battery doctor app because i paid for that lol

  • Why do apps close immediately after opening in my iMac?

    I work with imac. I have a problem when I open software standard  like appstore or preview, these apps open and close immediately.help???

    You probably ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" or "MacCleanse" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.   
    The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below.
    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
    If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main screen.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode.
    *The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.
