when I try to install them again it says "installed".
I have successfully installed many apps and they show up almost instantly.
One of the ones that didn't work is facebook, the other is a well-used app called c:geo used for geocaching.
where are they and/or how can I reinstall them. I've looked everyplace on that phone
You mentioned Android 5. Can you be more specific what you mean by that? Is 5 the version number? It would help to know what manufacturer and model phone you have. Depending on the phone, some automatically add the app icons to one of your home screens. Others only add them inside the app drawer.
