Hi Bill Sorry, thought it was a computer. In that case,..for the iPad. Double tap the home button to see all open Apps. “Flick” up to close them off. (this can be slightly different for older versions of iOS). Once it’s closed off go to Settings - Safari. Tap “Clear History”. This will then close all current tabs.
if you’re using iCloud Safari sharing, you can close it off another way from another device/computer. The other way is to go to Settings - Safari and turn on “Private Browsing”. It will ask if you want to close all Open Tabs. You then choose Yes. If that option doesn’t show, you can then - Go to Settings. Turn on Airplane mode. Go back into Safari, and it won’t be able to load the page. You can then close the open tabs (using the “two box button” icon. Go through and close all the tabs in Safari. Once all closed, then Quit Safari (as above). Then turn Airplane mode off. Hopefully something there should then work for you.
