Playbook - apps not loading correctly and icons not on desktop

I have a new Playbook 32GB with OS 2.1.0.1526.
I have had hassled with Wi-Fi not connecting (now fixed) and apps not downloading (needed to advance date to 2014 and reboot).
Now the few apps I have tried to download are listed in the "MyWorld" as installed but not on the desktop.
Where are they?! How can I use them?
Help very much appreciated. The "out-of-the-box" experience lacking at present!
Solved!

  • Websites not loading correctly and flash videos not playing

    When I visit sites like '''ign.com''' and '''joystiq.com''', they do not display correctly and Flash videos never load. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled twice to version 9.0.1 with no change. The second time I used Revo Uninstaller Pro to help make sure I got rid of all registry entries and residual files. Does anyone know if this is a recent bug? This started for me about noon yesterday...

    Not loading correctly in what way?

  • Purchased Playbook apps not available for reinstall

    Three Playbook apps I purchased (Dead Space, Madden and SimCity), are not showing up in the Uninstalled list in App World so I am unable to reinstall them. How can I get them back?

  • Downloaded apps not on desktop

    santa was good to us this year. an ipad was left under our tree! i downloaded two apps, but they don't go tot he desktop as they do on my ipod touch. you have to go into settings and they are there under downloads. how do we get them up front?

    If you downloaded them directly onto your iPad then they might have gone onto a separate screen - if there is more than one dot just above the app dock at the bottom of the screen then you have apps on more than one screen. If there are have you tried swiping the screen to the left to see if they are on the next screen ? If they are then you can move them onto the first screen (assuming that there is room). If you havn't already done so then the manual can be downloaded from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad , which explains how to rearrange apps.

  • TS1702 Purchased app not on desktop iPad

    I purchased brushes app, it shows up in purchased items but is nowhere to be seen on iPad ??? Please help

    Have you tried swiping from screen to screen to look for it? You may have moved it into a folder accidentally so look it folders as well.
    Do a search for the app. Swipe to the right from the first home screen and type in the name of the app in the Spotlight Search field. If it shows up, tap on it to launch the app. After you launch the app, restart the iPad and see if it shows up.
    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 cant find the app - reboot the iPad. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Downloaded playbook apps not showing up on playbook?

    Hi,
    I'm posting this on behalf of my dad, who like me has a playbook, but i live miles away so i've not been able to set it up for him, so this is a slightly garbeled message from him:
    When he got the playbook he did all the inital signing up (he doesnt have a blackberry phone, just the playbook) and as far as he is aware he signed up for a blackberry account. He is able to go onto the app world and download apps, which go into the 'My World' section and have a delete opeion etc. So to me it sounds like he is logged in and can download.
    However, they arent showing up on the playbook? With mine I download them and then they appear with all the icons on the bottom screen, but his are nowhere to be found?
    Has anyone come across this or got any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    OOPS,
    I feel real intelligent right about now!
    The icons were there all along on the first page of the Home Screen where all the App Icons are kept.
    All I had to do (on that first page) was to scroll down to the bottom of the Page to see the newly installed Apps.
    This solved my problem, which turned out to be a Layer 8 issue as suspected.
    Cheers

  • Webcam detected in Windows 8.1 App not the desktop...

    Hello, I tried searching everywhere for a solution and have tried the usual reinstall, downloading an earlier version, etc. But I have still not succeeded in getting the desktop client to find my webcam. Again the app that comes with windows 8.1 can detect my webcam no problem but the client cannot. Also just to avoid the whole "please upload your dxdiag" response I have it already attached.Any ideas?

    Do you have the Logitech Camera Controller app installed?  I had some odd issues when it wasn't, with my c525.   So you may want to try that:

    You can also try resetting your Skype configuration.  Exit Skype completely then run the following program.  When it is done, restart Skype and the initial wizard should come up.  See if your camera is picked up.

    Hi Dee12124,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I am going to get you to do a soft reset that, I will hope fix some of your issues.
    To do this:
    1. Press and hold the Home button (big circle below the screen) and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
    2. Continue holding both buttons until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart. This will take anywhere from 10-20 seconds.
    3. When you see the Apple Logo, you can let go of the buttons.
    If this still doesn't fix your device, what we could do is try resetting the whole device, wiping it. If this is the case, get back to me and I will pose the steps below. I would recommend that you do this AFTER the device is backedup however.
    Before you restore your device
    Make sure you’re using the latest version of iTunes.
    Use iTunes to back up your device. Transfer and sync any additional content to your computer.
    Turn off Find My iPhone in Settings > iCloud on your device to disable Activation Lock.
    Restore your iOS device
    Connect your iOS device to your computer using the cable that came with it.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes. In the Summary panel, click Restore.
    Click Restore again to confirm that you want to restore your device to factory settings and delete all data and content. iTunes will download the iOS software file and restore your iOS device.
    After your iOS device is restored to factory settings, it will restart. Once it does, you’ll see the "Slide to set up” welcome screen. Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. You can set up your device as new or using a previous backup. If your iOS device has cellular service, it will activate after you restore.

  • Windows 8.1 filenames missing in all tile and icon veiw, including desktop.

    I have Windows 8.1 Pro and had some sort of crash while I was at lunch. I came back, and all my icons where missing. I was unable to bring up Task Manager so I rebooted the computer by pressing the power button once for a 'graceful' shut down and restart
    process. No errors came up, but then all my desktop icons only show their size instead of their name.
    I brought up explorer and all folders were set this way. I was able to reset the folder view 'Details' to include the name so that all subfolders in Details view showed their name as well. I'm unable, however, to un-hide the file names in any other view
    (including desktop) as there is no check box to uncheck 'Hide File Names'
    Please help :/

    I shall suggest you to go through a System Restore.Select any restore point when there was no problem.

    I would like to move some of my icons on the bottom of my screen onto my desktop but each time I do they go into a crumpled up paper and into my trash. How to do I move the icons below for instance my safari Icon onto my main desktop?

    this isn't windows.  Icons stay in the dock on the bottom, left hand, or right hand side.  Whichever your prefer.

    Pings appear to have settled down, but I'll monitor it over the next 24-hours. Those high pings for the exchange on the TBB graph are not a one off though.

  • Sharepoint Apps not running Correctly

    Hi all,
     Im having some difficult with sharepoint apps, on Sharepoint 2013, running under Server 2012/IIS8
    I have gone ahead and created the necessary DNS zone, and also the appropriate Service and App application pools, as per the MSDN document.
    The apps are downloading correctly, and I can add them to my site. Upon opening them (all), I am prompted for credentials as normal, but when the app opens up, it isn't functioning properly.
    In particular, only part of the page displays. The sharepoint icon on the top left displays the broken link icon, and while I can click on some of the app functions, there are no text boxes, and I cannot save or run anything from the app menu. Suspecting
    the issue was with IIS, I checked the http logs, and i am seeing several HTTP error codes, in particular several 500 0 0 15 when requesting a page called allsitecontent.aspx from within the app. 
    I have checked out the application pool sharepoint is running in under IIS, and everything seems to be set to default. 
    Does anybody have any ideas or insight as to what might be causing this?
    Thanks for your help,
    Brian

    I am also having an issue with apps displaying correctly I have configured sharepoint foundation with a separated AD contorler running on a different server. I can get the app to appear but the page does not render correctly. (Master page not showing with
    app). Any ideas any one???
