No apps will run on my iPad except built-in ones

I just was using my iPad this morning... checked news, a few other things. All was fine. I just picked it up and tried to run 1password and it quickly blinks then sends me back to the main screen. I now try run any 3rd party apps and they all do the same thing. None of them will run, they all just flash, then send me back where I was. Apple built-in apps all work just fine, iTunes, email, safari etc.
I have powered down and back up the iPad, tried a reset (not a data reset).
Note: I just fixed this by installing a new app. Just grabbed a free app out of the app store and installed it, now everything works fine. But is this a bad sign or just some random bit of data that was corrupted?

Sounds like a random thing since it's working now. If it does it again, you may want to do a restore.

  • How do you stop apps from running on the iPad with the new ios7?

    How do you stop apps from running on the IPad with the new ios7?  I have an app for animation that pops up a message to stop other apps from running.  If I press onto a app and it starts shaking there are no -, just x's.

    Close inactive apps
    1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
    2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
    3. The app will fly off the screen

  • App will not download to iPad when purchased from App Store - stuck with Cloud icon

    Device : iPad Air 32gb wi-fi model (not cellular data)
    OS version : 7.1.1 (up to date)
    Location : UK
    Problem : App will not download to iPad when purchased from App Store - stuck with Cloud icon
    Last night I tried to download an app over wi-fi onto my iPad Air, but the app did not install.
    I have plenty of space (the app is 24.1mb, I have 3.4gb free space) and there are no restrictions whatsoever on my iPad - no blocks on App store purchases, no age-related restrictions, no country restrictions etc.
    Normally from the App Store page you would tap the price (in this case the app was free), enter your iTunes password, and the app would download.
    Also a new icon appears on the home screen and a circle shows the progress of the download.
    However this did not happen.
    Instead I have the Cloud icon (the one that shows when you have bought an app but it is not currently installed on your device) and a message that says "You've already purchased this, so it will be downloaded now at no additional cost".
    If I press OK I am then prompted to enter my iTunes password, the Cloud symbol briefly changes to a circle (and I mean for a split-second, like the blink of an eye) and then the Cloud symbol appears again.
    The app does not download - in fact it does not even *attempt* to download.
    I have tried this >20 times now and it always occurs excatly like this.
    After Googling this problem (which seems common) and reading over a dozen threads on this forum plus Apple's own official support pages, this is what I've tried:
    I can re-download other apps that I have previously purchased on this iPad, with no problems.
    I purchased another app on my iPhone 5 and was then able to download onto my iPad with no problems.
    I have reset my iPad >5 times - both by pressing/holding the home/power buttons, and also a full switch off and restart.
    I have logged out of my iTunes account on the iPad, and logged back in.
    The wi-fi is Virgin Media fibre optic broadband with a verified speed of 20 meg (confirmed by Speedtest) plus an 802.11-n Belkin router and my iPad will happily load web pages, stream videos on YouTube, download other apps etc.
    I have reset/rebooted my internet connection
    In an attempt to eliminate by broadband connection from the possible causes, I have switched off my router, linked my iPad to the hotspot feature on my iPhone and tried to download the app over cellular data, but still cannot download the app.
    I have tried on 2 other wi-fi networks but still cannot download this one app.
    My iTunes account has a cerdit balance from an iTunes card, but the app was free anyway
    Nothing I try will download the app in question.
    The app is iPad only, so I cannot install on my iPhone to try and kick-start the process.
    I guess I could install the app on my computer and then sync the iPad, but that's *working around* the problem - it's not *fixing* the problem.
    (Since getting the iPad I use almost never use my computer. And anyway what if I did not have a computer? Didn't iOS go "PC-free" with version 5?)
    I would like to call Apple but my 90-day telephone support has expired (the iPad is around 6 months old) and I don't want to buy Apple Care for this one problem.
    I can't make it to an Apple Store to speak to a Genius.
    Bearing in mind the list of things I've already tried, what do I do next?
    Thanks in advance for any support.

    Hi there.
    Thank you very much for your quick reply, it's really appreciated.
    No need to apologize, I actually found the phrase "If your iPad ever craps the bed" amusing under the circumstances
    I checked the list of installed apps like you suggested (Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Show all apps) but this problem app is not in the list. I have also swiped down on the home screen to search for it, but again it does not show.
    While it has not let me download the app (and I just tried it again) it has helped me to eliminate a few things from the list of what to try, and I can definitely conclude that it has not downloaded.
    I guess I need to fire up my PC and download it / sync my iPad.
    Thanks again for your help

  • Unexpectedly, no CC apps will run

    When I run Photoshop, I get a dialog saying there is a problem, and I must update Appliction Manager. I do this immediately. But Photoshop still won't run. I get the same dialog telling me I need to update Application Manager.
    I've updated Application Manager THREE TIMES, but this circle of doom continues.
    No CC apps will run. — Correction: Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, and Edge Animate will not run. Bridge, After Effects, Media Encoder, Audition, and Muse run just fine. But I'm stuck until I can get Photoshop and Illustrator running again!!!
    Thinking maybe if I reinstall Photoshop it will run, I attempted to UNINSTALL it but it gives me the same Update App Mgr dialog!  So I can't even uninstall the offending apps.  :-(
    HELP!

    Problem solved. I chatted with an Adobe support person, who directed me to find the arcane way to uninstall "Creative Cloud." Then re-install it. It's apparently not "Application Manager" any longer, but "Creative Cloud." But my dock still says "Adobe Application Manager."
    Whatever. Now at least I won't miss my deadline.

    Reboot your iPad and try again.  To reboot:  Press and hold the power AND home buttons at the SAME time for about 10 seconds (ignore the slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go fo both buttons and your iPad will restart.  You will not lose any data or settings.  When it comes up, see if you can download apps

  • I have "my story" app on multiple ipads at our school.  It now appears as if this app will function on some ipads and not others.  Is this because the app was pulled off of the itunes store?

    I have "my story" app on multiple ipas at our school.  It now appears as though the app will only function on a few of the ipads.  Is this because itunes pulled the app from the store?

    For any iPad exhibiting this, try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    Is this the app? https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/my-story-story-creator-for/id449232368?mt=8. It appears to be available.

  • IBook app will not install on iPad 1.

    I just reset my iPad 1 on the recommendation of a Genius. Now the iBook app will not reinstall becase the OS version is not up to date. I have the latest available for the iPad 1. Is the a solution to this problem or are my purchases no longer available on my iPad?

    Go to the App Store and find iBooks and download it should say not compatible with this OS and it give you a choice to download the newest iBooks supported for that iOS. If you dont get that option yourout of luck. You can also find it you have purchased the app but not updated it.

  • Apps will not open on iPad 2.

    When I choose an app on my iPad 2, it just starts to open and then immediately closes.  Only the built in apps work.  When I double click on the home button, the apps are running, but I can't use them.  I have rebooted, reset, resynced, downloaded a free app ... I've done everything I can find.  I need a solution.  Literally NOTHING is working.  Stumped!
    Please help!

    Try a reset:
    1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds
    2. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)

  • Not a single app will run after updating to 5 (other than native apps)

    I have just updated to iOS5 and of my 60+ non native apps (Navigo, Facebook etc) not a single one will run.
    Is anyone else experiencing?
    Thanks,
    Derek

    Go to the app store and update all apps that are available for update.  There are several releases for iOS5.  Once I did this, all my apps started working again (even ones that didn't need updating).

  • IPad apps will not download?, IPad apps will not download?

    IPad apps will not update even though the iPad screen shows apps need upgrade. What's happening, is Apple losing it?

    This problem has been ongoing for several days now. Hundreds of people are in the same boat as you. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

  • No Adobe air app will run Only Flash Web browser....

    So I have re-installed Flash Builder So when I try and run a Adobe air app from the Flash Builder It brings up a prompt everytime saying - If the program is already running, close it before attempting to run. When I kill the Adobe Air debugger in the Task manager it pops up again saying If the program is already running, close it before attempting to run.
    After waiting a few moments from trying again I get a message: Unable to connect to the Application to fetch profile data. Please try profiling the application again.
    With Flash based - web browser apps - they run fine with no issue. How ever its only adobe air - desktop apps that run this way. This is the third time I have installed FB 4.5 on Windows 7 64 bit. last night it was all woprking fine I was able to debug my Flash Application and everything was working  - it has been doing this all day.

    I had the same issue suddenly today
    After hours of scratching my head - and just before re-installing FlashBuilder 4.5 - I found this suggestion
    I had an entry in the "mm.cfg" file:
    PreloadSWF=C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\9us94hs0.default\e xtensions\[email protected]\chrome\content\flashfirebug\flashfirebug.swf
    - I deleted the line and it now works
    ---- aaarrrrggghhh - wasted time
    thanks
