I already did the download thing. It didn't change anything. I've uninstalled one of my apps & reinstalled it without any problem. Does this mean that I have to do that to all of them? I don't really want to do that because I will lose information &/or have to re-enter personal information.
Did you have any downloads pending in iTunes? I would close the app store app completely and then relaunch it. From the home screen do the four finger swipe up or double press the home button to reveal your multi task bar. These are all the apps that you have opened at one time. Long press the app until it jiggles and a red minus sign will appear above it. Press the minus sign, this will close the app, not delete it, now press the home button to return to your screen. It's also a good idea to close all these apps, as it helps the iPad run smoothly. Now see if they will update.
Have you upgraded your iPad to the latest OS which is 5.1.1? Whenever the iPad is updated the apps also get an update to run on the new OS.....if you haven't, sometimes the apps will not update until the iPad is updated also.
If this isn't it, you may have to restart or reset your iPad, this will not change anything on your iPad and is akin to rebooting a PC.
Restart - Press and hold the power off button, the one at the top right. You will see a slide appear to power off, slide this and the screen will go dark and a Whirly will appear. When the Whirly disappears your iPad is now off. Press the power button again until the Apple logo appears, this will take a few seconds and your iPad will restart. You should restart your iPad occasionally also as it will keep it running well. Now see if it is operating.
Reset - Hold the power off button and the home button simultaneously, keep holding them in and you will see the power off slide appear and disappear, wait until you see the Apple logo appear before releasing the buttons. It will take a little longer for your iPad to start.
Let us know how you go.
