I have accidentally deleted my app store app on my iPad, I have tried to restore factory settings to get it back but this hasn't worked.
Have looked in iTunes and tried to back up the iPad without success.
Anyone know how to restore this app?

I wasn't aware you could delete the app store.

I realize that's not helpful.

Do you have your iPad backed up? if so try restoring from back-up.

Have you restricted it rather than deleted it? You need to go into setting then restrictions to check. If you restrict 'buying apps' then the wee icon disappears.

yes. have just checked and no, it's not possible to have deleted it because it's one of the inbuilt apps, iyswim.

I have accidentally deleted my Notes app on my iPad. How do I receive it? No, it was not backed up on the PC. I already looked. It is not listed with my other apps in the Apple Store, either.
