Hi all,

Most of the Google apps on my Asus Transformer 101 tablet stopped working about a week ago.

- When I try to start Gmail, YouTube, G Drive, or Maps, they freeze and crash/shut down before the app even becomes usable. All were updated to the latest versions. When I revert YouTube to the original version that came with the tablet, it works but the video skips every few seconds.

- Keep and Chrome work fine. All other apps seem to work fine
- No new installed apps just before problem started.

- running Android version 4.0.3 with the latest firmware update

Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Followed the above but no apps updated automatically. Also, I had to restart the tablet a couple of times before even accessing Google play. After the first restart, I couldn't access any app. After the second restart, the WiFi wouldnt connect. The third restart allowed me to access Google play but i had to download Google play services first. After that, I checked Google play and it said all of the apps in question were already updated to the latest versions.

Anything else I can try? Thank you for your time - much appreciated.
