missing apps

[jim-49]

Recently my newly downloaded apps don't show up on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.
Google Play says that they are downloaded. Any ideas?

Welcome to Android Central! Tab 2, or Tab S2? Are you only looking on the homescreen, or also in the App Drawer?

It's a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 tablet. Did I post a question to the wrong forum? I have looked everywhere I can think of for the apps. Google Play says they are downloaded, but I can't find or run them. Apologizes if I'm in the wrong place for this question.

No problem -- I moved it to the Tab 2 10.1 forum.

Have you already looked in the App Drawer (i.e., tapping the button along the lower row of icons on your homescreen that looks like a grid of dots)?

Yes I have. I've also looked in application manager under the all tab. The Google Play online says that they are downloaded. Is there suppose to be a Google Play store app on my tablet? Thanks for the help.

I found my problem. I found Google Play Store in the application manager under the all tab. It was at the bottom of the list and was disabled. After enabling it I could load new apps and use them. Thanks for your help.
