My App icon is gone. How do I retrieve it?

My App icon is no longer on my iPad. And now I can't remove any apps.  When I hold my finger down on an icon,mthey all shake but no longer have an "X" next to it. What should I do?

You cannot delete any pre-installed iOS app.
Check in All Folders and on All Pages/Screens...
Check in Restrictions...
Settings > General > Restrictions
If no joy...
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen

    I just had the same problem. Took the first unit back and the problem is still occuring on the second one. I solved it by setting up again with the USB, but it keeps dropping out every few days.

    Try a reset or restart.
    If the app is still missing, download again via iTunes or connect to the computer and sync it back from iTunes on the computer.
    Frankly, in the time it took to sign up and post here the app could have already been re synced from iTunes on the computer.

  • Some of my purchased apps icons are missing. how do i get them back on my ipad?

    On my ipad, some of my purchased apps icons are missing. The app store indicates that the apps were purchased so i cannot install them again.  How do I get the icons back?

    - Are the apps missing or are the icons white?
    - If missing have yu tried using the Spotlight search and trying to find them?
    - Have you tried downloading them on your iPad and then syncing?
    - Have you tried deleting them on the computer and then syncing?  That might also delete them from the iPad so you can redownal them
    - Have you tried reetting the iPad?
    Reset iPad:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    Try this: Click on Start --> Programs --> ThinkVantage --> Power Manager --> Options --> and put a check next to "Show power manager gauge in taskbar"
    Thank you

    my email icon has disappeared and i don"t know how to get it back

    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.

  • App icon is gone.

    Just upgraded to 10.6 with my new 6-core. I installed everything but Shake and another program did not have their icons show up. They were replaced with a thing that looks like Paper, pencil, ruler and paintbrush. I guess these are the default icons if they cant be found?

    Reinstall them.

  • Phone app icon is gone, can I re-install it?

    My phone app that allows us to dial and receive calls/voicemail is gone. Can I re-install it.

    Its there somewhere. It can't be deleted.
    Check ALL of your home screens and folders. (If you click home or swipe to the spotlight search screen and search for it, it should indicate what folder it is in.
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

  • App tabs will not save. when close then open ff, the app tabs are gone. how do I save them?

    Every time i set up some app tabs, they disappear when I close ff. So upon reopen, have to set them up again, just to disappear again when i close ff. I thought once setup, they stay until deleted. Am I wrong on this? If they are supposed to show up after closing, it is not working on my pc. Running windows xp service pack 3.

    The add-on "app-tab initializer" 0.2 fixed it for me. You define your preferred app tabs and it opens them each time firefox is launched.

  • Top toolbar in VPC gone, how do I retrieve it?

    Windows Virtual PC question. I hope it's correct here:
    I clicked the "pin it" icon and the top tool bar went up and away.
    Moving the mouse to the top does not display it, which I hoped for. Is there a shortcut for it? I want it back.
    immer wieder dankbar für die TechNet Unterstützung

    oh I got it now:
     >>> Alt+Spacebar <<<
    If this does not help, press the SHOW DESKTOP area on the host to minimize all windows (incl. Virtual PC), then maximize the VPC window again and the top toolbar appears. If you are fast enough you can click the pin to lock it again.
