iPad frozen in books

[Dr c]

How do I get the books and bookstore unfrozen?

Is the entire iPad frozen?

Try holding down the home button and the power button at the same time for a few seconds.

You should see a slide appear that says to slide it to turn the iPad off.

Wait a few seconds after it fully powers down, then press the home button until you see it starting up again.

See how that reset works for you.

You do not need to hold down he home button to get the power off slider. The power button alone will do the job. After powering back up, this will fix most problems.

The two button combination is for a reset, and you would hold it down for about 7 seconds, or better yet until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the power sider if it appears. The iPad will reboot without any further input. Normally you only do this when the iPad is frozen, or a normal restart does not work.

Sorry. Guess I got my reboot and reset instructions crossed.

No problem. Easy to do.
