It could be that you are double clicking the home button. This feature allows you to see which Apps are running but also reduces the size of the home screen if there is nothing else running.

It's possible that your accidental touches are triggering actions on your touchscreen. Read http://osxdaily.com/2013/01/22/multitouch-gestures-ipad/ for an explanation of many of the "hidden" commands that you can make.

The most common and simple command, a double-touch on the screen, zooms the image to almost double size.

SOURCE: My ipad mini keeps shutting off

I would first try doing a hard reset. Hold the home and power button down simultaneously until the iPad completely turns off and the Apple logo appears. You can ignore the slide to turn off button when it appears.
If that doesn't solve the issue I would make an appointment with your local Apple Store and have the device checked out by an Apple Genius.
Hope that helps!

Silly iPad, try restarting it by holding down the home button and sleep button simultaneously and see if it does not do as you tell him.

No App Store app on my ipad mini

Is it really gone? From the home screen, swipe down from middle of the screen to show iPad search. Type "App Store" in the search box. Scroll down to Applications section. Is App Store there? If so, it's on your iPad - perhaps dragged into a group somewhere.

If not, plug your iPad into the desktop Mac or PC you're using to sync. Select the iPad in the left column and click the Apps header. Scroll the list until you find the App Store app. The button should say "Install". If so, click it, then sync your iPad.

My Ipad Mini keeps shutting off automatically, then turns back on. When the home screen is shown it just keeps glitching and shutting off. Whats wrong with it?

I would first try doing a hard reset. Hold the home and power button down simultaneously until the iPad completely turns off and the Apple logo appears. You can ignore the slide to turn off button when it appears.
If that doesn't solve the issue I would make an appointment with your local Apple Store and have the device checked out by an Apple Genius.
