IPad 2 Video Icon missing

Hi guys. I just got this problem involving my video icon on my iPad 2. I did not do any upgrades or download anything unusual into my iPad. The problem is that the original icon should be a blue square and says: "Videos" underneath. At the moment, it's just a grey box. I need a way to revert this problem. I tried restarting and restarting my iPad, but to no avail. My version is iOS5. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The reset will delete all your apps and content but before you perform the reset sync all your photos and video and apps and then do it umm also if you delete and app that you have already paid for you do not have to pay to get it back

HT201407 videos icon missed in my iphone4

hello my friends i am from india.i am a iphone user.please help me.videos icon missing from my iphone 4.what can i do for showing the videos icon

Other people have a similar problem with iBooks (and I've only heard about it happening with iBooks) and it not appearing after they've download it, but it has then usually appeared after doing a reset : 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.

Video Icon Missing

My Video Icon in Ipad went missing after latest software 4.3.1 upgrade, I can still find all the videos under sportlight search, however how can I restore the video icon?

Apparently Only 10 pages = 200 icons are allowed to be display, I deleted some of the unused Apps, reboot the Ipad and the Video Icon reappear again.

Videos icons missing after ios 8 update

Hi! So after the ios 8 update, the icons in the official video app have a computer with a house inside instead of the nice picture they had. Some still have the same icon.
How to fix this?
thanks

I have this same problem with a few home videos on both my iPhone and iPad. It's the same five videos on both. After upgrading to iOS 8 on both devices, the icons disappeared. I'm searching for a solution.

Video Icon missing. How do I get it back?

My Iphone 3g used to have the icon "videos". It is gone now. How do I get it back? I have sync'd and restored right back to factory to see if I can get it back.
It is the icon at the bottom betweem the "music" and "photos" icon.
Cheers

My iPad 2 just stopped playing videos. The original comes with the iPad video icon opens with a blank black screen and does not repond. I have shut all apps, shut the computer down, but no good. Where to from here?

My iPad just stopped playing videos. The original app that comes with the iPad opens with a blank black screen. I have shut all apps, and the shutdown the co ad, but no effect. Where to from here?

Try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
If that doesn't work then I normally suggest closing the Videos app via the taskbar and re-opening it, and then a reset by pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds unilt the Apple logo should appear - but as it sounds like you've alreadt tried that, then see if the spotlight search works.

IPad calendar icon missing

How to restore hidden calendar on iPad?

Swipe from screen to screen to look for it. Or swipe down from the middle of the home screen and enter Calendar into the Spotlight Search field.
Check Settings>General>Restrictions>Privacy>Calendars and make sure that you didn't restrict it somehow.
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.

Missing video icon on playbook screen

I have the camera and picture icon and can take videos with the camera but the video icon is missing ad I can't play the videos I've shot. I've checked all the folders-no video icon anywhere--HELP.

Swipe from screen to screen to see if you moved it elsewhere on another screen. Look in folders as well.
Do you have restrictions enabled? Settings>General>Restrictions>On. If you do, you may have age restricted content and that may have hidden the icon. I'm not real sure how that works because I don't use restrictions.
If you can't find it any other way you can reset the home screen in Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen layout. If you do this, you will return the home screen to the layout that it was when you first activated the iPad.

If my video icon is missing, how do i replace it?

The clapboard icon for video is missing on my ipad. How can I replace it so I don't always have to search for my movies?

Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
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.
You may have put it on another screen, so swipe from screen to screen and look for it.

IPad 2 icons go missing from desktop on rotating basis

As stated, iPad 2 icons go missing from desktop on rotating basis. My iPad was new as of Xmas day. I have NOT synced to iTunes (I don't want to at this time) and I have NOT upgraded the software to iOS 5.0.1 (still on 5.0).
I have downloaded about twenty apps; five of which cost money from Apple's app store.
I don't get it. This is a new device that I have been using for less than ten days for only an hour or two a day; I don't believe new purchasers of iPads should be having to contend with icons going missing (icons take turns disappearing when swiping back and forth between the pages of app icons, the names of icons remain, however).
I have re-booted the iPad. At first the icons all reappear and all seems well until about an hour of usage of opening up various apps and using them, and then the problem re-appears. I have done this three times now, and have resorted to just contending with the problem as the apps will still launch and they run fine, it is just that the full icon doesn't appear (only the name of the app and a missing icon above the name of the app):
I am thinking the cause could be due to one of two problems/issues, but wonder what others' thoughts are.
1). Glitchy App. If it is due to a glitchy app (and does not Apple test these apps before giving the all -clear to be downloaded from the Apple app store?), how best to figure out which one it is?
2) Glitchy OS (iOS 5.0). If this is due to a glitchy 5.0 iOS, is there no other choice than to upgrade to 5.0.1? I really do not want to do that just yet unless it is necessary. [And if it is necessary, would Apple really release a glitchy iOS knowing ahead of time it had problems? Seems strange....]
Anyone got any ideas or have been experiencing the same issue (is it a known issue)?

And if you restore as new, you can re download the apps for free as long as you are using the same apple id.
If it was a single bad app, you would have said so. If it was a common problem with the os, it would have been reported by a zillion users.
I think your os got corrupted. ( potentially from a bad app, or maybe just gremlins). It is a new machine, just start over. Reload the apps in small groups so that if it is a bad app, you can narrow the issue down.

Cannot locate MP4's on ipad imovie but appear and play through the videos icon??? Camera Connection Kit

I loaded 25 - MP4's from iTunes onto my ipad, they appear and play when accessed through my VIDEOS icon but when I open imovie or splice they do not appear as an option to import?????? These are files I converted from mts files - note they do play on ipad, please help????

Johnathan, -- I wrote this below in bold then the discussions site went down for maintenance and then Menneisyys and Kiwiphone4 replied and I think they are confirming what I'm saying here (only a bit more technically correct).
Thanks for your comment – but my issue is not with pirated or other movie video from the www, rather (as Menneisyys points-out) with videos I take with my Nikon Coolshot camera. What has perplexed me is this:
I synced about 100 events (containing both photos as well as .avi "video" files) from my MacBook Pro-13" (10.6.8) to my new iPad 3. NONE of the avi files transferred---
BUT:
…then I transferred an avi file from an SD card using the Camera Connection Kit - and the video played just fine!
Why on the same iPad with the same .avi video does it transfer via the CCK and play on the iPad, but not via an iTunes transfer.
PERHAPS THIS?!: The .avi movie NEVER MAKES IT into iTunes because iTunes cannot play an avi movie; therefore if it is not there, it can't be transferred. That must be it or something like that. (The avi movie I transfer from my Nikon is in iPhoto - and it plays in iPhoto - but since photo and video transfers to the iPad go via iTunes, and iTunes apparently can't bring-in avi, then it cannot act as the "bridge" in the way the CCK does.
Is that it?
Thanks everyone for any comments.
Best regards,

Try a reset Carole ...
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

TS1398 WiFi Icon Missing on iPad

WiFi icon missing on status bar. WiFi OK. iPad 3rd.

Same here. 3rd gen iPad latest ios. The wifi is connected but instead of having the wifi icon it shows the LTE. I can turn data off and still have Internet connection on the wifi but the icon is missing. I did do a reboot and it fixed it for a while but has done it again.
I'm not sure when this started. I just happen to notice it a few days ago. Could it have anything to do with new year? Maybe somehow linked to the "do not disturb" bug, which I'm experencing as well but understand that it should correct itself on the 7th.
