App icon missing

I previously downloaded app and it was working fine. For some reason the icon is no longer on my iPad. I tried to re-install the app, but it is showing up as installed already, therefore cant download again! When I sync to my computer, iTunes screen displays the app as installed as well.....what gives? I've tried scrolling to see if it went over to a different screen, but no luck. PLEASE HELP!

Check the Restrictions setting for your iPad. If you have restricted Apps content, then any apps that fall outside your allowed apps setting will NOT show up on your iPad screen, even though they may display within iTunes. Change the setting back to all and the apps should reappear.

Mac App icon missing

I just realised I should have a Mac App icon on my macbook pro! I can't find it - I've looked in Apps folder, bu the icon picture is not the Blue Circle, it's a boring looking pieve of paper with a pen, paper & ruler in the rh corner. If I try to open it I get an "App store quit unexpectedly" message. If try & locate the app from finder I get the same message. I don't know how long I've had this missing, I've had the laptop for a while, running Snow Leopard 10.6.8
Hope someone can help, Thanks.

First thing, download and apply the combo updater for 10.6.8, whether you currently have it or not. That should bring you an App store icon, at least in your applications folder.

Bridge App Icon Missing & now Crashing

Recently the Bridge App Icon "disappeared" from the CS4 Master Collection group in the XP Start | All Programs | Adobe Master Collection CS4 drop-down. So the only way I could launch Bridge was from within another CS4 app, no big deal. But now when I try and launch bridge I get a blue screen and Crash. Any Idea why? Tried to un-install/reinstall Bridge, apparently this is not allowed. Any advise would be appreciated.

Can you establish a start icon on the desktop for Bridge and then reset the preferences? Hold down the Ctrl key and click on start icon. You should get a reset window. Choose all 3 options.

Numbers App Icon Missing

I was copying the app to another computer, but it got interrupted. Now Numbers has no App Icon. Just the default one. How can I get the app icon back, without reinstalling iWork?
Any and All Help is appreciated.

Note that the iWork '08 installer requires that you install its applications to your current startup drive. This implies that the installer adds to or modifies system files in addition to installing the application packages, although Apple never states that explicitly.
With this in mind, my recommendation would be to install the application only as the installer requires, & not by copying iWork's individual application packages from mac to Mac. It may make no appreciable difference, but why take the chance that sometime in the future it will lead to problems with one of the iWork apps or documents?
Also, it would be a good idea to read the license terms & make sure that you are not violating them by installing the apps on more than one computer.

ITunes 9.2.1 & iPhone 3GS iOS 4.0.1 - Apps Icons Missing After Sync

As stated on the title.
It was syncing fine with all the icons and everything when I was running 3.1.3, but after i updated to the new iOS and the new iTunes, the apps have been getting funky. Sometimes they'll go missing or moved around quite a bit. Anyone else have this problem? I have two other co-workers with the same problem. I am running Windows 7 64-Bit
First co-worker: 3GS on iOS 4.0.1 & iTunes 9.2.1 - Using Windows XP
Second co-worker: 3G on iOS 3.1.2 & iTunes 9.2.1 - Using Windows 7 32-bit
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Is this a common problem with the new iTunes?

I had the problem where I got an unknown error when upgading from 3.1.3 to 4.0.1 last night. It put my phone into recovery & said that I had to restore it. Tried to twice but I still kept getting the unknown error message. Wasn't until I restarted my computer that it let me restore.
All of my music, videos, contacts, etc are fine. But I found that none of my apps were restored to the phone. So I had to go back through & manually drag each one back onto the iPhone in iTunes and then re-sync it. But now none of the apps will load or open. I have tried switching the phone off & back on a number of times but it hasn't helped.
Next I am going to try to restore again & see if that helps. From what I understand, the apps should have also been restored from the previous backup. Am not sure what happened in my case though

App icon missing from my Itouch

Recently returned back to work and went to access my "keeper" app to access all my pass codes but the icon has disappeared from the touch. When I connect to iTunes it comes up with the Keeper icon and has a remove label which would suggest that iTunes still thinks the program is on the touch, can anyone direct me to finding my program?

Can you find it with the search feature?
What happens when yo try to redownload it directly to the iPod by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Do you have any Restrictions set that would hide that app? Settings>General>Restrictions

Facetime App Icon Missing ?

Hi,
I bought my ipod touch 4th generation two weeks ago from iStyle in UAE.
But I noticed that there is no "FaceTime" icon between the apps.
However, one of my friends has bought an ipod from a store in UAE and he got the "FaceTime" icon. I asked him how did he got the icon he said I don't remember. When he first bought his ipod there was no "FaceTime" icon.
Is there a way I can get the icon back?
Thanks,

Probably nothing you can do. Dubia does not allow FT. See:

Icons missing on iPad

App icon missing but when I do a search the app is there and opens

It most likely got pushed to another page. Try swiping all the way from right to left. Folders in iOS 7 have pages also.
If it is in a folder it will be identified on the right of the app in the search results.

My Safari icon/app is missing. I How do i get it back? I try settings - general - restrictions - safari - off / on but doesn't work

My Safari icon/app is missing. I How do i get it back? I try settings - general - restrictions - safari - off / on but doesn't work

First, it might be you simply put Safari in a folder somewhere. Try searching for it using Spotlight. Drag down on the screen to display the Spotlight search bar and type "Safari". If you see Safari, it is still accessible on your iPad. If not, try the following.
Reset your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.
Finally, if that doesn't help, try turning off restrictions, then turning them back on.

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?

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

I saturated all the available iPad (3rd. generation) screen space (home screens or desktop space) with apps, and the apps that got bumped out of the last screen, mysteriously disappeared? Where are those missing quick lauch app icons?

Running my 3rd generation iPad on iOS 7.0.4, I saturated all the available iPad screen space (which would be the 15 home screens or desktop worth of space) with apps, and the apps that got bumped out of the last screen space mysteriously disappeared. Where are those missing quick lauch app icons now? The apps are still installed and can be searched/accessed through the finder, but they no longer have a user friendly access. How can I solve this problem?

Hi Hexonxonx, thanks for trying to help, but next time please read the entire discussion, in oder to better comprehend what is being asked. The reason being is that your answer added nothing to what had already been mentioned.
Like I said, I was aware it was possible to access the apps through the finder, but the question revolved around how to recover the quick launch app icons for certain vanished apps.
Wow, kind of a snotty response to someone who was taking their own time to offer help. Whether you thought it was helpful or not, didn't deserve such an unkind retort. Maybe when you realize we all just users here trying to help others like you, who have issues and we don't get anything in return for the countless hours some people here spend offering that assistance, you'll maybe be a little less quick to be critical.
Just sayin.......
Oh and Meg offered the right answer. Put your Apps in Folders, which will create extra space for the apps which have disappeared.
