    Have a look at my signature.Try it and see if it helps.

    CLOSING APPS: If an app has stopped responding or closes on launch, try the following: * Home screen * click the Home button twice * Tap and hold on the app * When it jiggles, tap the (-) to close it * Double-click the Home button and re-open the app

    Maybe closing all the apps to free up some RAM will help?

    You have not done any of the recent updates, based on the current operating system you have.

    The current iOS is 5.11. Seems like you are a bit off on the updates. This may explain why your apps are crashing. Has your apps been showing any need for updates itself?
