downloaded app tile not showing on home screen.

First try a reset to get the app icon. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. If that doesn't work go to settings> general> usage and delete the app from there. Then go the App Store, tap purchased at the bottom of the screen, then reinstall the app from there.

Hello bobseufert. My internet service went out last night, while that happened I was trying to install an app. I went to settings and it doesn't show up there. My AppStore says it's installed but when I try to click the "open" button it doesn't work. I'm very sad and I don't know what to do. I can't delete or reinstall it! :'(

You're welcome. I'm curious, was it the reset or the delete and reinstall ?

Thank you.
