Can't open any apps since I downloaded iOS 5

I recently downloaded iOS 5 onto my iPad, and now I cant open ANY apps that were downloaded. I can still open apps that were preloaded (such as safari, messaging, photos, etc). Ive tried turning it off and then back on, and even deleting the app and reinstalling it, but no dice.
Anyone else experiencing this???

This:
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

or
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Recently I can not open any app. in my Ipad except original ones. How can I fix this problem?

You do NOT need to restore your iPad.
I believe that the problem is that there is a disconnect with your iTunes account and your iPad. What you are experiencing is a somewhat common issue after you sync your iPad, update your device - it could be a number of reasons that are causing it. the recommended fix is to download another app in order to "reconnect" your ID and iTunes account to the iPad.
You can read more about it here. You will need a WiFi internet connection in order to fix it - or you have to be able to sync with your own iTunes library.
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
But this is what it says in the article.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install a free (or paid) app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You could also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.
Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

I can't' open whitenote App since ios 7

I can't open whitenote App since ios 7

I'm sorry but the advice being offered is not good advice. Reinstalling the application simply replaces the bugged version. Any password prompt by the application is not accompanied by a keyboard, and is then immediately followed by an application freeze. Also the restore data from iCloud function doesn't work although I can see that I still have the data in the cloud.
All my attempts to politely contact Sliced-Pi via the support email on their website have been ignored. Only sign of their existence throughout has been that of my money being taken via the credit card.
There is no indication anywhere as to whether or not an iOS7 compatibility fix will be forthcoming.
My advice for what it is worth is move on and find yourself an alternative notepad.

Hello, i can't open any apps on my macbook air or install any app

Hello, i can't open any apps on my macbook air. when i am attempting it says "you may need to reinstall app but when i am trying to reinstall it doesn't do anything. i can only browse right now. It happened right after when i deleted some files i was trying to uninstall the useless app and i think i accidently deleted some system files. Right now it is letting me to download the app but i cannot install any of the app or even open any application. please help

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 your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
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.

I can't open any apps on my iPad. Everything goes back to the main menu. Anybody have a solution to this?

Has anybody got some advice? I can't open any apps on my iPad. Everything goes back to the main menu immediately.

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Note:
Also consider Deleting any Apps you have Purchased / Downloaded but you now never use...

HT5548 in launchpad i can't open any apps

in launchpad i can't open any apps, It seems to have locked or froozen and now i cant do anything is this???

Hi mwvg,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Are you able to open the apps by clicking on them directly on the dock? When you are at the Launch screen, you can press the ESC key to get back to your desktop or open windows. Restarting your computer will most likely resolve this.
Mac Basics: Launchpad is the fast way to find and open your apps
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5548
Leaving Launchpad
To exit Launchpad, open an app. If you want to exit without opening anything:
Press the Escape (esc) key or Launchpad key on your keyboard.
Click the Launchpad icon, or another app icon in the Dock.
There may be an unresponsive application that is affecting things. If so, you can use the Force Quit command to close it:

Hopefully, this will get you back on track ...

I can't open any apps I downloaded after connecting to the computer (itunes) for the first time! Help!

I connected my iphone 4s to my macpro for the first time to add some musci, I didn't touch the apps folder.
But after ejecting, I can't open any of the apps I downloaded. When I press on them, they just shake but nothing opens!

You shouldn't. Downloading the app re-authenticated the iTunes account on your phone. This happens to people from time to time (not sure why) but making you are logged into the Apple store in iTunes with your Apple ID prior to syncing might help.

Can't open any applications since I updated to 3.1.3

I updated my iPhone (original model) to the 3.1.3 update this morning. Now when I click on any of my applications, none of them open. I can open the functions that came with the phone, like weather and email, but any app I've downloaded from the app store crashes every time I try to open it.
Can someone help me fix this? I've already restarted my phone twice and I'm still having this issue.

I had this problem, its a pain but a simple solution, download any free app first and run it then all your apps will again work.
