My iPad mini apps will open up but not load, and then take me back to the home screen automatically.

I have no idea what to do.

1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

    Try restoring from a backup. Connect the iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Right or control click the iPhone under Devices in the source list then click: Restore from Backup.

  • HT3529 i cannot open my messages app due to a ridiculously long text i sent, it goes to a white screen then just goes back to the home screen, what can i do ?

    OK, just remembered that someone had posted a solution for this "login loop" issue.
    If you follow the directions here and be sure to enter all of this EXACTLY as it appears here, you may be able to solve this problem.
    You will first need to boot into single user mode, which will bring you to a scary looking text only screen. Don't be frightened.
    To do this, startup holding the Cmd-S keys together. At the entry which shows root# enter the following exactly. Write it down now, since you won't be able to copy/paste. Pay attention to case and spaces. Everything is lower case. The only spaces are between /sbin/mount and -uw, between -uw and / and between rm and /var/audit/current
    Type in
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    Hit return and then at the next root# prompt, type in
    rm /var/audit/current
    Then hit return and at the next root# prompt type in "reboot" no quotes. Don't type in anything new until you get the root# prompt after entering each command.
    If after entering rm /var/audit/current, you get a message back saying "no such file," then just type in "reboot" at the prompt.

  • When I click on a program with my ipad air, it opens then immediately goes back to the home screen. I often have to open a program 2 or 3 times before it stays open. Is anyone else having this problem?

    My ipad air sometimes opens a program, then immediately closes an returns to the home screen. Often will take me 2 or 3 times opening the program to get it to stay open. This does not happen with any particular program. Happens randomly.

    Hi Flygrandma,
    What you are describing is that the app is "crashing". You may notice that some apps do it more than others. To try and fix this, cycle the power. To do this, you want to fully turn the iPad off.
    Hold the sleep wake button down.
    The iPad should say something like, "slide to turn off". Do that.
    After the screen is not grey, and completely black... wait 15 seconds, then turn your iPad on again.
    This should resolve your issues.

  • My mail app quits a few seconds after launching. I get a blank screen and then it goes back to the starter screen

    THe mail app on my ipad 2 quits right after launching. This happened as I was forwarding an email with a long attachment. Now I get a blank screen with just the icons, no mail mailboxes etc. after a few seconds that blank screen disappears and we go back to the starter screen. I tried rebooting, relaunching but no luck so far. Can somebody help me? Thanks
    Hans V

    Have you tried removing the email account from the app through settings?  I would try removing it, rebooting, opening the email app to see if it still crashes,  & then adding it back your email account. 
    If you're leary about causing more issues while you're not home, you could always try using a third party mail app (there are many), accessing your email through it...not a fix for your problem but a way to deal with the situation until you can get it worked out.
    Resetting all settings on the iPad (not deleting content) is a good way to clear many errors as it can remove leftover cache files & files that have become corrupt.
    Sorry I couldn't be of more help.  Good luck & let us know if you get it working.

  • I have an Ipad 2, I recently downloaded IOS 7.0.4, now when I open up Safari to search the internet it will come up for a split second then dissapear and take me back to the home screen. So it wont even let me search for anything.

    So can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? I cant surf the web because as soon as I click on the Safari icon it will pop up for a split second then dissapear and take me to the Ipad homescreen. This happened when I downloaded the IOS 7.0.4.  I have the IPAD 2.

    You're on your own.  Good luck.

  • Everytime I try and open an app it starts loading then goes right back to the home screen

    Some apps work but others don't! I don't understand!

    Try restart or resetting your iPod. See here for information: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Hi upgraded my iphone 5 and now two of my apps keep crashing when I press on them it just goes back to the home screen one is Facebook and the other is my fitbit app.

    Hi upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7.1 and now my Facebook and fitbit app won't work it just keeps going back to front screen and suggestions on how I can fix this if so please put answer in simple words. Thanks

    Hello Glenys,
    It sounds like you have 2 apps that are not working as expected. I recommend the steps from the following article named:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    These steps will get you started but therea are more if needed:
    Restart the app
    Close the app and open it again.
    Restart your device
    Turn the device off and on.
    Update your device software and your apps
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    Update your apps:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates.
    If updates are available, tap Update All.
    If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
    You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
    Install another app from the App Store
    If your installed app won't open, download and install a free app that isn't on your iOS device. This should reset your Apple ID authorization.
    Remember to use the same Apple ID that you used to download the app that you're having issues with.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Itunes will not load on my ipad. Icon is there. When I open "Music", it shows itunes with no content briefly and then takes me back to home page. What to do?

    itunes will not load on my ipad. Icon is there. When I open "Music", it shows itunes with no content briefly and then takes me back to home page. What to do?

    Quit the app and restart.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your 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 of the app that you want to close. 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.
    Or reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • The iphoto on my macbook isn't responding. I click on the app but once it opens it starts to load and thats all it does. The wheel continues to spins. any one have any suggestion on how to fix the problem? i'd appreciate the help =]

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Ipad mini crashes, goes black, apple logo comes up then back to the home screen. it happens at random times with random apps

    my ipad has been crashing. it will happen at random times with random apps. it will turn black, apple logo appears, then back to the home screen. i have reset it. ive sent it to apple and they couldnt reproduce the problem and they sent it back. it was fine then it happen twice this morning.

    If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center if you are running iOS 7. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you are running iOS 5 or iOS 6, the system sound control is in the task bar at the bottom. Double tap the home button and swipe all the way to the right in the task bar to get to the speaker icon on the left side. Tap on that and the sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
