Missing app store icon

Hello,
I am missing my app store icon on my IMAC, I looked all over under application, I don't see it. How do I get it back?
Thanks!

Hi Becky: If you are running OS 10.6.6 or higher you should have the App store. If this is your OS, then you may need to download the Combo updater to restore the App store. See the link below. Please note it is a large file.

  • Missing a app store icon how can i retrive

    missing app store icon how can i downlod

    It is not possible to delete the built in Apps such as the App Store. If it isn't hidden by restrictions, it is on the iPad.

    how can i restore the app store icon ?

        Hey Dan97!
    Uh-oh. Sounds like we need to get on the job and solve the case of the missing app store icon. With that said, I've got you covered.
    Right off the bat, there are a couple of different ways we can do this. First, let's start things off simple. Go to settings > general > restrictions. If restrictions are enabled, toggle "Installing Apps" back on. Did the app store reappear? If not, no worries. Next, go to settings > general > reset > reset home screen layout. How did thing work out this time? Hopefully well. If neither of these steps worked, please let me know when the icon first disappeared and if it coincided with any changes. I look forward to it!

  • App store icon gone missing/Web Content Filter - Apple Configurator

    I am using Apple Configurator to manage the iPads at my school. I changed the settings on my school's profile, within Apple Configurator, so that the App store was not available. The App store icon disappeared and all was good. I decided to change the settings back, to allow the App store, saved the settings and refreshed a group of iPads. The App store icon is still missing and it doesn't appear that my new settings have been applied. I quit Configurator and tried again, but no success. I am running Configurator 1.5 and the ipads are running iOS 7.1.
    Also, I have unchecked the "Allow use of You Tube" button because I want You Tube disabled, but Configurator still allows the use of You Tube through Safari. Is there any way to disable the use of You Tube without using the ridiculous "Web Content Filter", that when activated, limits adult content (good), which seems to include a lot of valuable educational sites (bad)? To me the only other option available seems to be to tick "Specific Websites Only" and spend the next year typing in all the possible sites that might have educational merit, ergo, my use of the word 'ridiculous'. Is there something I am missing?

    Locate it in the Apps folder and drag it to the dock.

  • HT203167 My App Store icon is missing from ipad and won't re-install?

    My App Store icon is missing from ipad and won't re-install? You can't delete it so where is it?

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it 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.

  • My App store icon is missing after ios 7 update.

    I updated to ios 7 and now my App Store icon is missing.  There is one page that only has one icon on it, so I am not sure if other stuff is missing too.  Other problems I have had:
    All of my contacts disappearing and then reappearing.
    My privacy settings for photos being changed
    not able to add events to my calendar
    When I search for something in safari, I click on a result and it will not open the link.
    Any solutions?
    Thanks!

    Hi there,
    You may want to double check the Restriction settings on the device. Take a look at the article below for mor information.

  • App Store icon went missing!

    I restored my iPad2 yesterday, and the Apps Store icon was there. Then I synced all the apps, music, books, and  re-arranged the icons through iTunes, placing the App Store icon in the main "dock". But now, the icon went missing...  Any ideas what might have happened? I haven't tried syncing it again...
    Thanks for your replies!  :)

    Duh....... It's kind of embarrasing..... I got it back..... I had placed a restriction on purchasing and deleting Apps (in the General Settings), so that made the icon "disappear"....  Must be the "blonde" in me!!! ;P
    Thanks again for your help! :)

  • New iPhone 4 -- App Store Icon Missing - Help!

    My friend recently got one today. And shes telling me that the App Store icon is missing.
    She already
    1) Checked all the pages to make sure it wasent there
    2) Its Version 4.0.2
    3) Turned the phone off and turned it back on
    4) Went into settings and restrictions and its on "On"
    Anyone can help? I was gonna tell her to do a restore but then she would have to back up her phone and if she did and backed the restore from the back up that it may bring along the problem again. On the other hand, if she does a simple restore with no back up, shes gonna lose all her contacts.
    What should she do?

    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout...see if you see it now.

  • HT2476 I recently had the hard drive replaced on my Macbook Pro; now the app store icon is missing from my dock

    When my hard drive was replaced by Apple, I had to re-install iTunes myself. Then I noticed that there was a question mark on my dock where the App Store Icon was supposed to be. I did a software update, and now the question mark is gone. How do I get the App Store Icon back on my dock?

    Locate it in the Apps folder and drag it to the dock.

  • My App Store icon has gone missing...PLEASE HELP

    I turned on my iPad this morning and the app store icon is not here. I tried a reset but it is still nowhere to be found. I have about 222 mb of free space left. What can I do.

    You cannot delete it.
    It is likely on another page, in a folder or you have restrictions set.
    Check all of these.
    If you do not solve, then reset the home screen layout.
