Ipad Apps Not Working

[Chasingcars]

I went to use my ipad this morning and when i click on any of the apps, it opens them for brief second then returns to the main screen again...any ideas why? I have tried Skype, Facebook to no avail.
Its fully charged and has signal.
The only time it doesnt do this is when i go to 'safari' and link into Yahoo for example.
Any help appreciated! thanks

Sounds like it needs a software update, go into settings

Hi Elvis68, yep tried that too but again when i click on settings, it briefly opens to only return to main screen again!?

Have you tried closing all apps completely and then doing a reset ? From the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

To reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Hold the home button until a row of previously used apps appear along the bottom, press and hold each app until the red cross shows, remove the previously used apps, when you have cleared it them all, your iPad should work again
