My safari icon has dissappeared from my ipad help?

The Safari icon on my ipad has just disappeared. im not sure if my three year old deleted it or what happenend.
i have gone into restrictions as i did turn some of these on to prevent my child making in app purchases by accident. however i did not have restriction on safari. i also tried to reset my home page as suggested by another older message board.
what now...help

Ok my safari was already turned off in disable restrictions ... So I turned it on and .... Safari came back. Yeah
But if it's not meant to work that way... What just happened?
I put what I thought were restrictions on downloading new apps so my son couldn't do it by accident...
Argh more questions  needing  tech speak explained, please : )

  • Safari icon has disappeared from my iPad. Will not show up even when I double click home button to show history.

    When I opened my iPad today, the icon for Safari browser was gone. It is nowhere to be found; not even when I double click home to bring up recently used programs. I don't see any other ones that are affected this way. Any help will be appreciated.

    Settings - General - Restrictions - Safari = ???

    I just noticed today that my TV shows icon has dissappeared from the Apple TV screen. I do not have aceess to my purchased content, unless I use my iPad and Airplay, which I do not want to do all the time.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There appears to be a large increase in this type of problem at this time, it seems that that there is a problem at Apple's end, but I couldn't at all be sure.
    There are no issues being reported at Apple’s System Status page, but this status may yet be updated and it may be you need to try again a little later.
    This isn't affecting me here in the UK, where exactly are you.
    So far I have noted users in the following locations having similar problems:
    USA
    If this is a problem at Apple’s end, it rarely happens, however when it does only Apple can fix it. When this has occurred previously it has usually been resolved in a few hours or slightly more.

  • The The Economist icon has disappeared from my iPad. The App store tells that I am have already downloaded   What to do to get it back.

    the The Economist icon has disappeared from my iPad. The App store tells that I am have already downloaded  Will not download again.  How do I get my icon back.

    Well, App Store is system app. It might have been moved accidentally to a folder. You might be having an idea of Spotlight search when you swipe the home screen to the left most section, you can search "App Store" and you have the icon of the App Store.
    You can try to reset home screen layout by going to settings - general - reset - reset home screen layout
    Keep in mind, this will reset all the app folders you've created in the home screen.
    If it still doesn't appear, you might have accidentally turned the switch ON to disable App Store in restrictions.
    Can be accessed by going to settings - general - restrictions - (Enter passcode if asked) - Turn on the Installing Apps and Deleting Apps switches to ON
    Let me know if this helps you out

  • My face time icon has disappeared from my iPad air

    Hello all...
    I don't know what I've done but the FaceTime icon has disappeared...haven't a clue why or how to get it back. I hadn't tried using FaceTime yet by the way, I am new to apple products (but learning fast) but I was looking forward to using it.
    I have however used the iMessage function which leads me onto the second part of my question, which is, ........ Why can I only send messages to certain people in my contacts lists? ( I do realise they have to have apple products)
    Any help... Especially for the face time query... Will be much appreciated.
    Thanks

  • I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer.?

    I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer in case it wipes everything .

    I have the exact same problem. I have not changed anything. This is probably a bug or something that has gone bad with Mac OS X (10.7.2). I have not found any solution for this on the web.

  • Itunes has disappeared from my ipad. how to get it back?

    itunes has disappeared from my ipad. how to get it back?

    You don't have iTunes (per se) on the iPad. There is a Music app which is an orange icon. Native apps cannot be deleted, but in the event that it has somehow disappeard you could go to Settings > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • The buy icon has disappeared from my itunes store. How can I purchase songs??

    The buy icon has disappeared from my itunes store...how can I purchase songs??

    The Youtube app was removed by Apple in iOS6.  You can use either the iPhone app from Youtube (free in the app store, but you've got to set it at 2x), or go to www.youtube.com in a Safari web browser.  You can also add the web page to your Home Screen using the share feature.  It will then operate just like an app.

  • The airplay icon has disappeared from my desk top. It was there two weeks ago, so I can't watch movies I've downloaded from iTunes and flick them over to my TV.

    The airplay icon has disappeared from my MAC desktop. It was there two weeks ago when I successfully used it to 'flick a movie i had purchased from iTunes over to my tv. Also, if I rent the movie through iTunes, why (because of the above issue) when I go to 'Purchased' it doesn't display as an option when actually using Apple TV, it doesn't display but when I go to rent it again a message comes up saying "you have already rented this movie, do you want to rent it again"? Frustrated!!

    Ok Fellas, let me give you a clue:  Games, particularly those that make heavy use of graphics and sound are notoriously power hungry.  In fact, when I was in the Navy many years ago, the folks working on the NTDS (Navy Tactical Data System)  computers used a version of Space Invaders to load test the AN/UYK-43 computers.
    I have also noticed that all of my laptops (I have a brand new Toshiba dual core, an older Toshiba single core, plus 2 Dell dual core machines) have significantly shorter battery life when I play Company of Heroes than when I am just reading e-mail or surfing the 'Net.  I have also noticed the same behavior when I play games on my 4th gen Touch and my iPhone 4.
    The fact is, iOS 5 did make some major improvements as well as adding some nice functionality like iMessage, wireless synch, and such, but the down side is that depending on how you use the device battery life can be shorter that what you may have experienced with pervious versions of iOS.  Its just the nature of the beast...
