Ibooks is locked

[Vick]

Have been loving the iBooks app, but I just installed an ebooks search app for free books. I found a free book and loaded it on to my iBooks. Now iBooks seems to be locked. The free book is there and I can't get back to my library! I click the library icon, but nothing happens! Help!

Hi Vick - not sure if this will help, but I would first try to 'Force Close' the iBooks app, i.e. open the multi-taskbar (double tap the home button or use the multi-gesturing movement, if activeated in iOS 5); find the iBooks app, press and hold until it starts jiggling, then hit the minus button - return to the home screen and try iBooks again - let us know if that works.

If not, then you might want to 'Restart' and if not successful 'Reset' the iPad - directions HERE if not familiar w/ the maneuvers - good luck and post back if none of these suggestions solve the problem! P.S. - welcome to the forum!
