Hi Enschwartz2,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you are having unexpected behavior from applications downloaded from the iTunes store, I suggest reading over the following article and working through the troubleshooting steps provided.

  • What should i do if my contact app freezes and goes to home screen by itself?

    Hi, does anyone know how to deal with this kind of problem?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.

  • Have gray screen and unresponsive iBooks 2 program upon downloading Wilson textbook on life. No way to turn pages.  When using new York times app it shuts down and goes to home screens.

    Loaded iBooks 2, downloaded e.o. Wilson textbook on life.  Opened book and only get gray screen without any way to turn pages.  As top menu does not appear cannot even switch to another book.  This occurred on 3rd time of trying to open book,   First two times would result in iPad switching back to home screen.  This last issue also happens when trying to open new york times app.

    Shut down all programs that are running in the background.
    1. Double-click the Home button to see Apps in background
    2. Hold the Apps down for a second or two until you see the minu sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close program
    4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo
    Suggest you perform Step 1 to 3 at the end of every day.

  • Mini iPad 1 keeps quitting apps and goes to home screen?

    P

    Try quitting all apps -- double tap home button, swipe up all apps at the preview page to quit them.
    Press and hold the home button and the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and the apple appears. (Ignore the slider if it appears before the apple.)
    Proceed from there as you normally would.
    Good luck.

  • Cover Flow Crashes and Exits to Home Screen

    Hey, guys! I'll want to report this to Apple as well. When I flip through album art using Cover Flow slowly, I don't get any problems. But when I try to go long distances, Cover Flow lags then eventually exists back to the Home Screen. Does anyone else get this problem?

  • Contacts cause crash and return to home screen after iOS4 upgrade

    After upgrading our iPhone 3GS to iOS4, it crashes when clicking on contacts from the Phone app. The Contacts app itself will not open. This is making it extremely difficult to even use the phone to call anyone.
    The same issue is also described in the following forum posts:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12041826&#12041826
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12002288&#12002288

    Check Settings > Store and make sure the Apple ID that is shown is the same as the one used to buy the apps in question.
    Also, try a Reset (hold down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons).

  • My sister moved all of my apps around and reset the home screen. How do I get my Home Screen to go back to normal without resorting everything?

    I want my apps to go back to normal and I tried to do a backup but it won't let me. What do I do?

    Do you mean restore a backup with the old layout??  Define "won't let me."  Exactly, what did you do and what happened?

  • Stops Playing Music and Goes to Home Screen

    I have had THREE 32GB iTouch. I will be listening to music and all of the sudden it will stop playing music and go to the homescreen. The store the I bought it at says that this is not common but I have to think it is considering I have had THREE of them. Does anyone know why this might be happening or what I can do to fix it?

    It's easy... restore your ipod.

  • Iphone 6 going to home screen

    my iphone 6 suddently stopped receiving messages, I switched Imessage off and on. But just says sending. Apps crashing and going back to home screen. Mail app just crashes straight away. How to fix this?

    Hi lucy544,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone's applications quitting or becoming unresponsive, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • When I am on a phone call and I double click the button to go to my home screen, then open another application (usually my calendar program, Calengoo), my screen goes blank and I am not able to return to either the app, the phone, or the home screen.

    When I am on a phone call and I double click the button to go to my home screen, then open another application (usually my calendar program, Calengoo), my screen goes blank and I am not able to return to either the app, the phone, or the home screen. If I am speaking to a person, if they hang up then I am back to the phone application. If I'm leaving a message, I am unable to return to the phone screen to end the call, and have to wait until the other phone hangs up. I'm also unable to switch back and forth to look at my calendar if I'm calling someone about scheduling. This has only started happening since the most recent iOs update. I run into situations similar to this about once per day during the work week, as I use my phone is this manner quite often. While not life altering it is quite frustrating. Can anyone here help me figure out a way to avoid this? If it helps, I have noticed a general downgrade in overall performance starting two system updates ago (apps opening more slowly, closing unexpectedly more often, etc.). I have an iPhone 3GS with the latest OS update.
    Thank you for any help or suggestions,
    Chris

    I could be corrupted backup.
    You can check the notification settings for message.
    Settings>Notification Center>Messages>Alert Style
    It should be on Banners or Alerts.
    Settings>Messages> Turn on Imessage and send as SMS and below that "Blocked" to check if you have any numbers block might be blocking the message.
    You can also do a hard reset by holding power and home till it restarts and release after seeing the apple logo.
    Still doesn't work? Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings

  • JPGS are set to open in Photoshop Elements, but they open in Windows Photo Viewer instead, even when I specifically select Photoshop (and it's the default app)

    Hi,
    It seems this is a Microsoft related. You are referring on how to set JPG Image in Photoshop Elements by default. You may try visiting Microsoft's Support page http://support.microsoft.com/ for you to get the correct information/help you need.
    Thank you.

  • I have just updated my iPad to IOS 8.1.3 when I now try to open the emails nothing comes up and then the app crashes and returns to the home page. What should I do?

    I have just updated my iPad to IOS 8.1.3 when I now try to open the emails nothing comes up and then the app crashes and returns to the home page. What should I do?

    Since yesterday morning about 11:00 I have been having TERRIBLE email problems on this iPad 3G. Email comes in (I hear the sound) but nothing displays -- no folders, no content, no nothing in e-mail. The blank email screen shows up and then disappears after about 10 seconds, taking me back to the Home Screen.
    Right now, the only way I can see email on this device is to log onto AOL via the AOL app.
    I have been doing a lot of online reading about the problem. It has to do with iOS 8.1.3 and it affects older iPads and iPhones. I'm having no problems on my iPod touch, which -- fortunately -- is so old it cannot update its iOS 6.
    I waited to update the iOS on this iPad until iOS 8 was "mature." That was about 2 weeks ago.
    Anybody know know if Apple is aware? working on a solution?
