Hi Fred...
Have you tried to do the following?
Do the first 2 steps first. Save step 3 as a last resort.
1. Force the app to close?
2. Try to restart your iPad?
3. Try to do a soft reset?
You can try this in order, if an app becomes funky. [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]
[/FONT]Force the app to quit by pushing the home button twice to bring up your multi-task bar. This will show all the apps that you have visited. By long pressing the app in question, it will begin to jiggle-press the red circle with the negative sign on the app. It will only quit the app and not delete. Than try to re-open the app and test out.
If that doesn't work, restart the iPad by pressing the power switch down to power off.
Third is to do a soft reset by holding the power switch and home button together until you see the apple logo. Hope that helps!

Hello, I am David. I am pretty new to the Apple community, got my Iphone when they released. Just before christmas I was offered an iPad 64 Black wifi, for a price I couldn't refuse.
I can now say I am an Apple junkie, I have sold my iPad and ordered the New iPad, if I hadn't just bought a new laptop in August, I would buy a mac book pro. That can wait for now.
I have been browsing this forum a lot this morning and I am finding some very useful information.
Thanks for having the site.
David
P.S. I am pretty much a lurker, but do post on rare occasions
