App store says app is installed but it doesnt show on the iPad

How do I fix this?

Restart the iPad and see if the icon appears
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If you still can't find it - do a search. Swipe to the right from the home screen and type the name of the App in the search fails. If it appears, then you know that it is on the iPad.
Swipe from screen to screen and look in all folders as well.
Do you have restrictions enabled?

  • App Store says Lion is installed but it isn't - What happened?

    I have the appropriate qualifying hardware and software and downloaded Lion, clicked on proceed and App Store says it is installed but it isn't.
    Any ideas?

    "Me too"
    Yet another individual in the same boat. ***, Apple?! Why must getting software be so obscure & complicated? What happened to: go to website, download thing, install thing?
    I had Xcode 4.1 installed. Wanted to install (yet another) package with MacPorts, but got complaint that Xcode 4.1 is inadequate.
    So I go to App Store & tell it to install current Xcode…This, BTW, left me with nearly zero feedback that something was going on. Only because I have a menubar widget showing network bandwidth did I know it was downloading.
    while waiting (who knows how long it was to be), I had to sleep my computer to take it with me to work.
    Upon waking my computer, App Store tells me Xcode is installed. Great!
    Back to MacPorts to install that package: it tells me that Xcode 4.1 is too old. ***!?
    Then things get messy & I end up clicking on the circle-X "button" next to XCode in the "Purchases" section of App Store, thinking that'll allow me to install it…that's a dead end
    I then try entirely removing "/Developer" & "/Applications/Install Xcode.app"another dead end
    Trying all combinations of holding any/all keyboard modifiers (option/control/shift/command) while clicking on "Purchases" in App Store did nothing different than not holding any.
    Now I'm left with no Xcode & no way to install it with App Storewhee! this is a fine pit I find myself in now.
    What a lovely user experience! Please, may I have more?! <grumble> <fume>
    In the end, I did resort to my "what happened to…" thought.
    Problem Solved:
    Go to http://connect.apple.com/ & login with your (free) dev account.
    Locate the current version of Xcode (4.3.2 for Lion) & download the dmg
    Install like a normal person. (copy the Xcode.app from the mounted disk image to Applications)
    After a bit of cleanup (things like "/usr/bin/xcodebuild -version" were trying to access things that used to exist), I've again got a working install of Xcode.

  • App Store says Xcode is installed but it isn't, so I can't install XCode

    What can I say.  I tried to install XCode but it did not finish.  Now the App Store thinks XCode is installed.  I need XCode for MacPorts to work.  Does anyone know how I can tell the App Store XCode is not installed?

  • Mac app store says iwork is installed, but its not.

    The Mac App store says that Pages, Keynote, and Numbers are all installed on my iMac, but when I open them, they are the previous versions.  Should I delete and try to re-install?  What do I do?  I've already restarted.  Didn't work.  Suggestions?

    Don't delete them. That will not help and you will find that they have more features than the new iWork apps. You can have both version on the computer. You have to have the latest version of iWork 09 for this to work.
    To get the new ones.
    1. log out of MacAppStore
    2. Change the localized language in the System preferences> Language and Text > Text. Make sure the new language is on the top of the list
    3. Restart the computer
    4. Log in and open the MAcAppStore. Now you should see that you can download the new iWork apps. Do so and supply you AppleID for the appStore.
    5.When done change language again in the System preferences
    6. Restart the computer
    7. now you should have the stripped version of iWork. The old one will still be in the application folder too.

  • Mac app store say iphoto ready installed but i dont

    Hi and welcome.....
    Quit the Mac App Store (Command + Q)
    Launch iTunes. From the iTunes menu bar click iTunes/Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Click the *Reet warnings* and *Reset cache* buttons.
    Now from the menu bar again click Store / View My Account. Click: Sign Out
    Now launch the Mac App Store and try purchasing iPhoto 11 again.
    If that didn't help either, install the 10.6.6 combo update available here.

    Restart your Mac and try again.
    If you still have problems, you can email Mac App Store Customer Service here.

  • App store says FCPX is installed but it isn't

    Final Cut Pro was not updating on my Mac Pro, version 10.0.0 was installed and the App Store didn't show any updates. So I trashed the application and expected the App Store to allow me to reinstall. However the App Store still says "INSTALLED".
    Any advice for how I can get FCPX reinstalled and updated?
    Thank you.
    OS X 10.8.5

    If you had it on more than one boot volume mounted in the Mac Pro, then you may need to dismount the other one to get MAS to now give it to you.

  • Took delivery of imac yesterday with pre-installed Pages, Numbers and Keynote. App store says they need updating but won't let me because I've never owned the major version of the software. I have paid like anyone else, so why can't I update?

    You must be signed into the Apple Store with your Apple ID or it won't work.

    How to deal with a 100 Store Error:
    Try here >  Mac App Store: "An unknown error occurred (100)" when purchasing
    If that doesn't help, open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here;
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Now here:
    ~/Library/Preferences/
    Click Go
    Move these files from the Preferences folder to the Trash.

    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

  • App store says app installed and won't allow update to latest version.

    App store says app installed and won't allow update to latest version.  My Mac has Iworks from a disc but I can't seem to update to the latest version of Number, Keynote or pages in the App store.  The app store identifies the applications as installed but doesn't update them since they were installed from Iworks disc.

    all the ICloud numbers spreadsheet pages are now gone.  How do I get them back?
    Do you mean you were storing the documents in iCloud and now you can't see them from Numbers? If so, you probably need to check to see that iCloud is configured to work with Numbers.
    Here in System Preferences > iCloud make sure 'Documents and Data' is checked:
    And, after clicking 'Options...', make sure that 'Numbers.app' is checked.
    You should be able to see the documents in iCloud when you go up to the title bar at the top of the screen and choose 'iCloud' in the 'Where:' dropdown:

  • Pages, Numbers and Keynote won't update.  App Store says update was applied, but when I open Pages/Number/Keynote, the version of  it shows the old version.

    Pages, Numbers and Keynote won't update.  App Store says update was applied, but when I open Pages/Number/Keynote, the version of  it shows the old version.

    When you updated, the old version remained on your Mac, in a subfolder within Applications named iWork '09.  Any icons you have on the Dock still point to that old version.  Try opening the Numbers that is located in your main Applications folder, not the one in the subfolder. If that works, then drag that one to the Dock.

  • The app store says lion is installed. However it is not on my computer despite running and apparently successfully installing the downloaded package

    The app store says lion is installed. However it is not on my computer despite running and apparently successfully installing the downloaded package. Any thoughts? Obviously I cant download it again as the app store says it is installed. I cannot find the package on my mac, when I try and search for it!!

    Hi Hugh,
    Once you download Lion from the app store you still have to install it.  Its located in your Applications directory.

  • HT204088 how to I find out the most recent deductions to my account from the app store (say, for a recent download for additional functionality on a iPad game)

    How to I find out the most recent deductions to my account from the app store (say, for a recent download for additional functionality on a iPad game). Much as I try, I can't seem to get to see my account in enough detail to see what I have spent downloading apps to the ipad.

    You need to punch in the passcode for any purchase right, not just for new apps??
    If one of the other students, or anyone else, got access to your iTunes Store account, necessary to make any purchases, then they'd have all the information they'd need to also make in-app purchases. But an in-app purchase can only be made through the account through which the original app was purchased. Either your son bought the game (free or paid) and then shared it with someone else along with the account information (necessary to authorize the app on someone else's device), or someone else downloaded the game as well, not just made in-app purchases.
    In any case, changing your iTunes Store password should now have cut off any such unauthorized activity, though of course if your son gives the new password out, you'll be back to square one.
    Regards.
