If the Apps option is missing in iTunes, go to Edit>Preferences>General and check the Apps box to show them. You should see it then.

Also, make Restrictions are turned off in your iPod's Settings. You can find it by heading to Settings -> General -> Restrictions. That might be why your Apps Store icon is missing.

Has your iPod been jailbreaked? I don't believe you can delete the Apps Store icon normally. The other thing is you can only show 11 screens - do you have more than that?

Thanks, the Apps icon is checked in the preferences and I can download an app but the tabs under the sync show only summary>info>music>photos>etc no app tab, there is not a Restrictions option under general, has not been jail breaked, I only have one page as the device has not been used much. It may be a defective unit. When I sync my iphone all is fine, app tab, download, transfer, etc.

So you are not getting either an Apps Store icon on your touch or the Apps tab on your device when syncing in iTunes? But you are seeing Apps under Library in iTunes. Hmmm.

On your touch -
What generation is your touch? Can you Search and find the App Store icon?

In iTunes -
What version is your software? Do you have another device that you can test with it?

I hope someone else has some ideas because I'm running out!
