Settings icon disappeared?

Hey i just got the new update and got the new apps and everything was working perfectly at first. after i was done testing everything out i turned my ipod off and put it away. an hour or so later i take it back out and the settings icon is gone! i especially need it because i had my screen lock temporarily set to never and was gunna change it back but forgot and also i have 2 wifis in my house, so whenever i switch between them i have to turn wifi on and off... which i can't now. could someone explain to me how to get it back? and yes i checked to make sure i didnt move it to the next page

ok that was not the best way to go... for many reasons... i didnt know that ipod touch didnt have disk mode so i dont have any songs on my computer.... and now i have to erase all songs, videos, and everything. plus then i have to redownload the apps for another $20 because my "factory settings" don't come with the new apps... any way to not lose stuff? i cant do anything on ipod because it just shows the plug into itunes screen...

Have you dragged it to another screen?
Try swiping your finger across the screen from right to left.

I was moving icons and my Settings icon disappeared

i was moving icons when my Settings icon disappeared. How do i get it back? resetting did not work.

From allan778,
The settings app cannot be deleted. Try searching for the Settings app in Spotlight and see which folder it is in. The folder name will be displayed on the right.

3G to 3GS transfer oddity settings icon is gone

It went smoothly BUT now my "settings" icon has disappeared. Spotlight can find it and open it but spotlight doesn't show WHERE it actually is. Does anyone know where it went??

Got my 3GS this morning. Took my laptop to the store with me. I asked the 'Genius' if I could restore settings from a backup. He said, "I think so." With fresh phone I had all icons (it was my settings icon that disappeared, twice). I plugged into iTunes and started my restore from backup. Upon completion I had no music or apps installed on the phone. It created two additional pages and bumped a couple factory apps to them but the settings icon was completly gone. I did a factory restore and it erased all my contact info like it should have and all the icons were returned. Again I did a restore from backup. Again the settings icon disappeared. Just for the **** of it I synced all my apps and music. After the sync the settings icon was there. Magic.

Has anyone faced a problem like this!!!

No. If you go Settings App > General > Reset > "Erase All Content and Settings", you will have the same iOS that was on the iPhone when you tapped the Erase button. If you believe your iPhone is Jailbroken, then this will not work. If you use iTunes on computer, this will put iPhone to current iOS which is iOS 7.0.2

You can't delete the settings icon form an iPhone. so it either ended up in a folder with another app, or in another screen.
You'll have to look for it.
You can use Spotlight by swiping down from the middle of the screen, to search for it. If its in a folder, it will tell you which one.

Hi, I bought an iPod 2 and I jailbreaked it before. I tried to download the iOS 5.0.1 from the Settings icon on my iPad 2 and then my iPad wouldn't turn on anymore and it kept on showing a screen with an arrow pointing to an iTunes symbol.

I tried to download the iOS 5.0.1 from the Settings icon on my iPad 2 but then my iPad wouldn't turn on anymore and it kept on showing a screen with an arrow pointing to an iTunes symbol. I later learned that this was the recovery screen so I tried to put it out of the recovery mode by pressing the home button and power button simultaneously, but the screen kept on returning back to the recovery screen. I could not restore the iPad 2 on iTunes either, so I downloaded Tiny Umbrella 5.10.01 and tried to save the shsh. However, under the recovering devices section on the left side, my iPad did not appear and I only got a device titled ?18092..... I tried to save the shsh of this ?18902... anyways but this did not work. So, I clicked on the device and pressed the exit recovery but then my iPad2 screen went black with a white apple logo in the middle. This logo keeps on dimming and disappearing and even when I plug my iPad 2 to the computer, neither my iTunes nor the Tiny Umbrella notice it. I need urgent help!

At this point only a restore will fix your issue.

.AI Icons disappeared after update to 10.6.6

Hi,
My .AI preview Icons disappeared after update to 10.6.6, they do show in Quicklook, but not in the folders. They are now just show the standard AI icons.
My other Imac's dont have this problem.
Thanks
Sarah

Here comes the/my solution:
Remove Sophos Antivirus
Thanks to boojum's remarks in https://discussions.apple.com/message/15480849#15480849 !
Don't forget to use Sophos' deinstall package: /Macintosh HD/Library/Sophos Anti-Virus/Remove Sophos Anti-Virus.pkg
Nevertheless, some settings have been re-initialized (no complete list!):
- Dock
- Language has been reset to English only
- Expose & Spaces
(- probably all personal settings?)

The mic icon disappeared on my iPhone 4 keyboard how do I get it back

The mic icon disappeared on my iPhone 4 keyboard how do I get it back?

Should be Siri microphone. Go to Settings>>General>>Siri and turn Siri on.
But in your signature says you have iPhone 4, right? Just iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 have Siri (just talking about iPhones, ok?! I know that iPad and iPods also have this).

"settings" icon gone :(

Hi there
I updated my iPhone 3GS with IOS4 a couple of days ago and yesteday I noticed that my "settings" icon was gone. Completely disappeared.
I think it was something about the folders...
Please help me, it's annoying to go to the spotlight and then type "settings"
Thanks

Welcome to the discussions,
if you can find it using spotlight, it must be on your device somewhere, check all the pages and if you're using iOS4, look inside the folders as well. If all of your pages are used, try to delete a few apps to make the settings app visible again.
