This is the wife's ipad don't really know a lot about them
Looked in setting ect but nothing jumping out at me

The problem is when she opens Google and dose a search for none of the sites open as if its locked ?
The strange thing is desktop linked favourites open no problem? Anyone had a problem like this

Hold the home button and the on off button together until it powers down, then just turn it back on after a few seconds

Cheers but tried that no joy ?
Just weird type in a search in google a list comes up and no link will open on any site ??

Just tried doing this i found but still no joy


?just in case it's a bad / corrupted setting, try going to Settings - General - Reset and then select "Reset All Settings". This action will NOT erase the contents of your device

Try "Reset network Settings" before a full reset

Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings

- - - Updated - - -

Also try

Settings > Safari > Clear History and Website Data

Is this using safari? Try downloading Google Chrome and using that for now. Or you can also try a long press on the link in safari and a context menu should pop up and select open in new tab. See if that works.
