HT201412 Why have my downloaded apps stopped working

My iPads downloaded apps have stopped working when u touch them they start to go then go back to home screen

If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

  • TS1702 downloaded apps stop working

    Every 2-3 weeks all downloaded apps stop working. 
    I have to deleted one of the downloaded apps, reinstall that app, then everything works for another 2-3 weeks.
    What is happening and how can it be fixed for good?

    Guys a hard reset fixes this. This usually occurs when the last third party app you used didnt close right. You must reset the device to fix this. If this doesnt work then the apps may of been corrupted and you will want to download them again for free. Yes this is a pain in the *** but what can you do about it? Not our faults Apple rushed this firmware out.

  • Downloaded apps stop working..

    This is now the second time that all the free apps I have downloaded to my new iPhone 3G just stop working. I can remove them and re-install, at which time they now work again. Any ideas??

  • Why have my USB drives stopped working in my MacBook but work in all PCs?

    I currently have a MacBook (older version), and recently my USBs stopped working properly.  As soon as I put it into the Mac I get a message saying that it wasn't ejected properly, and it won't open the files.   However I haven't had this problem on any PCs I use.
    I really need to do work at home as I am a teacher and am also currently writing a Thesis - and not being able to work at home is a disaster!!
    I have a very basic understanding of computers, so would really appreciate anyone's advice and help in how to get this issue fixed.
    Thank you.
    Elly

    I'd be worried about this.  I'd expect the mac to open the files on the flash drive with a warning message.
    I'd recommend that you backup all your data on these flash drives on your pc.
    -- Flash drives are very cheap these day, get more.
    -- are you ejecting the flash drives properly from Windows?  You should.
    -- There is an option to turn off displaying flash drives on your desktop.  Finder > Preferences..
    for me I check Hard disks
    -- You could use disk utility to repair the filesystem.

  • Why has Instapaper-Free app stopped working?

    When hitting "update" in lower right corner of app, the response is "no internet connection" even though I am connected to the internet. Can the app issuers simply turn off the app's functionality to force one to buy the paid version?

    I thought you were being paranoid, until I checked, and see you might well be correct. Why the **** would I buy an app from someone who treats their customers that way? Screw them.
    Oh and screw Apple too for making me log in three frigging times to leave one comment.

    Hi, can anyone help, I have only just got the iphone 4s and after 2 weeks of no trouble my apps stopped working today, i have tried the restart etc and am now running a restore, i am not overly technical so am doing what friends have suggested, but does anyone know why this is happening? if i touch an app it looks like its going to load but then straight away goes back to the home screen. any help would be appreciated.

    i tried that too and deleted all the recent ones, i then downloaded a new one which oddly fixed the problem for a while but now the problem has returned, deleted the app i downloaded but nothing works again now.

  • Why do some apps stop working after update to iOS 6?

    I notice one of my apps stopped working after the iOS 6 update, in particular Uno HD, which I paid $5 for.  Why did this happen?

    I had solved the problem by installing the free app, which seemed to reset something, then I deleted the free app, and the paid version continued to work until the next day.  I was going to show one of my friends the game, and then it once again would not open- the same problem was back, as soon as I went to open it, it crashed back to the desktop without opening the game.  I had to re-install the free version again, and for a while, neither version would work, but then after a while, it started working again.  I guess I have to leave the free app installed or I won't be able to use the paid version of Uno.
    EDIT
    Just checked again, took the Uno app out of resident memory by double-pushing the home button and holding the app icon til it starts to shake, and then hit the minus symbol, which deletes it out of resident memory.
    Went to open it again, and it of course crashed back to the desktop again.  So there is some issue with it that is making it unstable.
    I have to keep pushing on either one of  the app icons continuously until one of them starts, and then the other one will start.
    Gameloft needs to do an update.

  • Why every half hour or so does my iPad camera app stop working?

    Every like half hour or so my iPad camera app stops working. I tap and It and  a blank screen appears. If I turn my iPad off and on again it works fine.

    There are any number of reasons why that might be happening. An app confict, low memory (that's not supposed to happen but ...), so it's hard to say for sure what the issue could be.
    You could try closing the camera app until you need again, and see if that makes any difference. Unless you really need to get to the camera app every half hour for whatever reason, there should be no problem in quitting the app.
    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.
    Then just launch the app again when you need it.
