Hello Dana and welcome to the forum. I've deleted your original thread which duplicated your question here and which had no response to a request for further information provided with the aim to assist you by our member giradman. Such duplication, not permitted by our rules (please read per link below) fragments a conversation with potential for confusion to members.
Did you reset the Mini after the system update, a recommended thing to do?
Simultaneously hold down the Start and On/Off buttons until the Apple logo appears then let both go and wait until the iPad powers up. If no help with that please come back. A solution is bound to appear.
EDIT: the following was giradman's question to you which may have led to a resolution:
Hi Dana.... - welcome to the forum!

Finally, your issue is NOT a virus. Answers to these questions will help. DaveRegards, Andrew

I noticed that immediately with having the apps stretch out in a row. Even the simple things like this I am impressed with. Very nice.
I am still trying to figure out the video showing on another page. That'll be my next thing to discover.

That was my problem. SORTED.
Just plugged it in iTunes, synched, downloaded IOs9 and them left it to get on with it over lunchtime. Returned later and all upgraded.

Update
Mail works fine on iPhone. On iPad, with unread mail no problem. If I close completely out of mail an reopen no problem. If all mail has been read and I open mail when it opens it opens to a screen with no messages selected, blank. Tap back to all mail boxes and it's fine.
Sadly ... no!
I was reading an article about some of the littler changes to iOS 9; the author mentioned the 16 apps view. So, I looked and what do ya know! There were 16-icon folders, right there on the springboard and I like it!
Made me laff at myself.

I'm glad you finally succeeded with your iOS 9 update. Thanks for letting us know.

Has anyone noticed the change in the print dialog box. Besides the option slide, for single sided or double sided, and the ability to choose black and white or color. You now have bellow this a complete by page preview view. Looks the same on the iPad and the iPhone.

Apparently this is a bug that has hit a few people who used the OTA (Over The Air) update method. The basic solution is to do a restore using iTunes on a computer.
Here is Apple's support page on the subject.

Sorry, but I only read about this myself today.

MacStories has a comprehensive review, as does iMore. They probably explain more than you want to know, but in the process they also talk about how to use the features, and some of the reasons and/or use cases that the features may meet.
I've read the MacStories review, and love it. I even went so far as to join their Club MacStories membership so I could get it in an iBook (ePub) format. The iMore review I've only heard about second hand, but intend to read in the next day or so.
Most of the 'cool' things I've posted about here came from reading the MacStories review.
In both cases 'review' is not an entirely accurate name. A more accurate description would be 'explain' or 'inform'. They don't spend a lot of time critiquing the OS.

Dave, your links open iBooks on my iPad, but there's no sign of an iOS 9 manual.
I did find a decent review at anandtech.com that explains, e.g., the meanings of most of the odd little icons on the keyboard. The ^ and its upside down sister are still incognito.
I hate mystery meat navigation. Apple used to know better.

If you open the Store in the iBooks app you can search for iPad User Guide. Make sure that it's the iOS 9 version before downloading. Everything from as far back as iOS 5 is available. You may see the iPhone and iPod manuals as well, so don't grab one of those by mistake; unless you want them.
I generally keep the current and last year version for each device on my iPad in iBooks.
The new symbols on the keyboard can be changed by the app developer. They are also contextual, meaning they can change depending on the state of your selected text, or the kind of text field you are typing in.
I haven't run into the one you are describing, or haven't noticed it if I have. What app, and what are you doing when you see it?
