All of the app icons on my iPhone have disappeared...why??

Help! I ran an update on 6 apps in the app store and some were sat at 'waiting' for 5 hours. I tried to click on them but nothing was happening, so I switched off and then on again. This seemed to erase the icons but they could still be found using the spotlight search. I went to the app store but it wouldn't let me delete and reinstall as it needed the icon to do this, so I did a screen layout rest on my iPhone to see if that would help.....er, no - now ALL of my purchased iPhone app icons have been completely removed from my home screen. WHY???

Try resetting the phone:
Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
After that, try going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout again.

All of the photos in my text messages have disappeared and been replaced with a question mark image. Where did they go?

I updated my ios two or three weeks ago, but suddenly beginning this morning all of the photos in my text messages have disappeared. They have been replaced with question mark placeholders. I can't access any videos/photos that either I have sent or others have sent to me. I did nothing to instigate this change (no software updates, etc.) and have already tried resetting my phone multiple times.
Thank you!!

I have the same condition on my iPhone only. I also have an iPad, a Macbook Air and an iMac that share the same iCloud account. Messages with photos seem to work fine on all devices except my iPhone. All of a sudden all the photos in my iPhone message streams have disappeared and been replace by question mark placeholders. I rebooted all devices, shut down messages, and rebooted, restarted, with no luck. Very bizarre and extremely frustrating. Any suggestions?

Do you see them at iCloud.com
Do you think you could have done anything that might have caused this, if not then it might be best waiting a while in case they just come back.

All of the emails in my icloud inbox have disappeared in the last week and now I am getting 10-20 junk mail per hour. Any thoughts?

I converted to icloud weeks ago, but then all of my old emails in my inbox disappeared in the last week. I can't find them anywhere. On icloud.com, on any of my devices, no where. They have evaporated. Help???
Also, when that occurred I am now getting 10-20 junk mails an hour. Some are completely new to me, but others I have opted out of before. I am about to stop using this email address if it can't be resovled.
Very frustrating. Thoughts?

The iPod icon on my iPhone 3GS disappeared. How do I get that back?

If you have Updated to iOS 5 ... it is now the Music App...
If you haven't updated it is still on your phone somewhere...
Use Spotlight to locate it or Reset your Home Screen Layout...

The mail icon on my iPhone says I have 1,504 unread messages, but when I go to delete them, it says "No Mail". I was trying to "clean out" my phone because I can't access my Words With Friends app - everytime I try to go there, it kicks me off. I still get messages from Words saying my friends are waiting for me. Any ideas on either of these issues?

My instagram app icon on my iphone 4 is missing. When I go to the app store and try to reinstall it, it says open. When I search for it on my phone it can't find it? What should I do?

Make sure your phone is connected to the computer and iTunes is open
1. Visit Instagram.com from your computer web browser
2. Click "Download in the app store"
3. It will download and show up in your iTunes
4. Highlight and sync the app to your iPhone (note: it will not show up on your phone, even after it says syncing is complete).
5. In iTunes, select the Instagram icon and click "Remove" or "Uninstall"
6. Click Accept and Uninstall when it asks you to confirm as it will remove instagram and its data from your iPhone
7. Disconnect the phone from the computer
8. Manually reboot the phone after exiting all apps
9. Upon re-start, you will be able to access the app in the App Store, and install it

What does the copy icon do in iPhone 4S photo app?

Hi
Anyone know what the copy icon does in iPhone 4S photo app?
Go to your camera roll or any other album and click the editing icon on the top right of screen.
You're then asked to select photos from that album.
After tapping one or more photos, you're presented with options to SHARE, COPY, ADD or REMOVE
All make sense except the COPY option.
What does it do?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply but you email the photo simple by clicking SHARE
I did myself wonder if it was a COPY/PASTE function but I can't see anywhere in the iPhone where it offers you the option to PASTE what you've just COPIED from the photo app

Next time you accidentally use 3 fingers it will zoom again. Unless you need the feature you're better to turn it off

When I tap the mail icon on my iPhone 4s, the menu of email servers pops up. I already have a me acct that I check all the time, no problem. So I choose iCloud, sign in and it tells me that I already have an acct-.so why can't I get to my emails then?

An app will not completely download from the App Store to my iPhone 5S. Neither can I terminate the download by trying to delete it. The app is useless to me and so I would like to remove the icon from my home screen. How can I do this?

I tried to download the app "Google Translate" from the App Store onto my iPhone 5s. However, the download will not complete. As well, when I try to delete the icon from my home screen, it will not go away. I am very frustrated as this has never happened before and I have gotten many paid and free apps from the App Store. I hope someone can solve my dilemma. Thank you kindly.

What have you tried to get the app to finish downloading e.g. have you tried logging out and back into your account on your phone, disconnecting and reconnecting to your network, soft-reset of your phone (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 and it should reboot) ?
You could also try downloading the update on your computer's iTunes and see if you can sync it over to your phone (or delete the app its Apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes and sync the new version - deleting the app will delete its contents).

I have iphone and ipad on same apple id. I'm out of icloud storage so phone won't back up. Can I switch my ipad to a different apple ID and switch over all of the apps I purchased?

Am I able to create a new apple ID for either my phone or iPad and transfer all of the apps I purchased. Right now I have them both under the same apple id and can't backup my iphone because I'm out of iCloud storage.
Thanks

This detailed explanation for iCloud account transfer could help you sort out your question:

I just installed ios7 on my iPhone 4s. It seems to be working fine but all of the apps I had previously installed are gone. They show up in my app store as purchased, but the shortcuts are gone. Does anyone know how to get the shortcuts back? Thanks!

I updated via my iPhone 4s. The apps were on my iPhone 4s. That's all the information that I have. The update to ios7 seems to have gone smoothly - everything else is working, phone texting, email, internet, etc. But all of the apps I had installed over the past year are no longer showing up as shortcuts. No facebook, no twitter, no espn, etc. They are all still listed in my app store as purchased, but the shortcuts and my folders are gone. Thanks.
