I've suddenly lost multiple apps (including settings, App Store, iTunes, camera, photos etc). How do I get them back?

Thanks for replies, however...
Tried turning off/on and hard resetting - didn't work.
Spotlight search didn't find them either.
Had about 5 pages of apps - now only have 2 so they're not on another page.
The settings app is missing too so can't reset through settings.
They were all there last night but my ipad is almost empty when I picked it up tonight.

Did you create these notes in the iPad notes App ... I assume?
This support article will explain how you can restore from a backup - which is what you have to do in order to have any chance of recovering your note.
How to backup and restore from a backup
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
But you have to remember, that you will lose any of the notes that you have taken since the date of the last backup. If you synced your iPad last week, then you will lose a whole week of current notes - or whatever notes you have created since your last backup. When you restore from a backup - you restore everything in that backup onto the iPad - that was on the iPad on the time and date of the backup.
If you backup every day, then all of your notes should be recoverable from the backup - except for any notes that you took since you last backed up. There is no foolproof way to recover everything once you start taking more notes or creating new documents or whatever that you do in an app unless you are syncing those notes with iCloud and backing up all of the time or unless the app is set to sync with iCloud as you work on the files - like in Pages, Numbers or Keynote - Apple's iWorks apps.
If you decide to restore from an iTunes backup you should turn off at sync before you try restoring because iTunes will want to backup your iPad right away when you plug it in and you will lose your old or last backup.

If I understand you right, try this,
Go to Mail > Mail top menu > View > Customise toolbar > then drag the address book icon back into the top bar.

Help, I have just restored my iphone from last back up to retrieve vital messages that somehow disappeared. Now I have lost the most recent messages, calendar details and photos. How do I get them back?

I have an iPhone 5S

You restore from the backup that contained them.
Restoring from a backup is all or nothing. It completely overwrites the data in the phone when you restore. You can not combine the contents of a backup with what's currently on your phone.

I seem to have deleted iTunes and the App Store from my iPad mini, how do I get them back?

I've deleted the App Store and iTunes from my iPad mini, how do I get them back?

If you can't find them on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find them via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then are they hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps and iTunes being set 'off' ?
If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find them after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I lost the round red, yellow, and green buttons in Safari. How do I get them back?

I lost the round red, yellow, and green buttons in the upper left hand corner in Safari. Does anyone know how to get them back?

Has Safari taken up the entire screen? If so, then that's 'Full Screen Mode', which you can toggle on or off with Control+Command+F.

My firefox upgraded this morning to 18.0.1 and I lost ALL my bookmarks that were previously saved in Firefox. How can I get them back?

My Firefox upgraded to 18.0.1 this morning automatically and all my bookmarks were lost. I need them back

"Not typical behavior". I think not. I am yet another person this happened to. Even if I can get them back, you've just wasted an hour or two of my time. I won't be using firefox again after I've recovered my bookmarks. If I recover them. Thanks for nothing.

HT5278 I have lost all of the songs I had on my iphone 4s how do I get them back.

I have lost all my songs that i had on my iphone can i get them back?

Assuming they are in your iTunes library, sync them back to your phone. If they aren't, you can redownload any music purchased from the iTunes store for free (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519), but you will have to re-import music from other sources to your iTunes library then sync it back to your phone.

I have lost my outlook contacts but they are available in icloud. How do I get them back in outlook on my PC?

I was able to see my contacts in icloud contact group in outlook, but now I get an error. "The set of folder cannot be opened.The information stoerr could not be opened." I can see my contacts on my iphone and in icloud. can I somehow get these back to outlook?

You're welcome.
When asking if you are also syncing contacts direct with a supported address book app on your computer wasn't in regards to a solution. Contacts and email addresses can't be imported or made available out of no where.
The Windows Contacts address book app is not included with Windows 7 by Microsoft for some strange reason with all the other garbage included by PC box assemblers with the Windows install, but it can be downloaded from Microsoft's website.
If all contacts are available in your iCloud online address book, on your iPhone go to Settings > iCloud. Turn Contacts off for over the air syncing.
A warning message will be provided indicating this will remove all iCloud contacts from your iPhone along with a prompt to save the contacts locally on your iPhone. If your iCloud online address book is what you want and complete, decline the prompt to save the contacts locally on your iPhone.
After all iCloud contacts are removed, turn Contacts back on for over the air syncing with your iCloud account.

TS1702 Just had to have my iMac reinstalled due to a fault. Now OK, but I have lost iMovie, iPhoto and pages which i had already purchased. How do I get them back ?

How do i get Imovi, Iphoto, and pages back after have to reinstall my operating system due to a fault ?

If you bought them from the Mac App Store then they should show in the Purchases tab in the Mac App Store app on your Mac. If they were pre-installed then you might be better off asking the iMac or Mavericks forums, this forum is for questions about the iTunes store.

HELP!! I had two libraries in iPhoto, Photos imported the wrong one, and now I have lost 10,000 photos. How can I get them back??

I originally had two libraries in iPhoto, my wife and I share two iMacs at different locations but we wanted to share the photos and it was set up this way Apple Geniuses at the store I have no idea why. Anyway, I updated to OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.3 with the new 'photos' app. It asked me to choose one of the libraries and evidently I assume I must have chosen the wrong one. It only imported 322 random photos, not the 10,000+ we had in iPhoto. I can no longer find these photos or the other library anywhere, it appears to have been deleted. I have tried 'alt' clicking the icon which used to open a 'choose library' box, but this no longer works in photos or iPhoto. I have no idea where it has gone and it contains precious memories over the years including the birth of our children. Can someone please help???

Where is your iPhoto library stored?
my wife and I share two iMacs at different locations but we wanted to share the photos and it was set up this way Apple Geniuses at the store I have no idea why.
Since you are sharing it between two Macs, is the library on an external drive or a NAS, or another remotely mounted volume?
If the library is not on a directly connected disk, formatted MacOS Extended, move the original iPhoto Library to a directly connected, correctly disk.
And the try first the iPhoto Library First Aid Tools on that library. Repair the permissions, and repair the database in iPhoto. Then try to migrate again to Photos.
To repair hold down the alt/option and the command key simultaneously while double clicking the iPhoto Library to launch the iPhoto Library First Aid tools. Hold down both keys firmly and long enough, until the First Aid panel will appear.
The select "Repair Permissions". And then repeat, but select "Repair Database"
But make a current backup of your iPhoto Library before you try this.

- Have you tried using the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find them

HT204266 My iPad said that it needed restoring. After restoring, the App Store and iTunes were gone. How can I get them back?

After restoring my iPad, the App stre and iTunes are no longer on my iPad. Has anyone else had this problem?

You cannot delete the preinstalled apps.
Swipe from screen to screen to look for them.
Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that they are not restricted.
You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.
Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
