I installed google earth, but no icon appeared. I cannot access or uninstal until I get an icon. What can I do?

Could it have ended up on another home page? If your home page is full, newly installed apps will go to the next home page.

Just to make sure it's on your iPad, look for it in Spotlight Search.

Assuming it is there, if you use folders, it may have ended up inside one of them. Open them up and have a look.

If you have the Google App, you can run Google Earth by opening Google and touching Google Earth. It will run from there if its installed.

If all else fails try Settings/Reset/Reset home screen layout. That should flush out the icon.

Going to Settings>General>Usage will show you a list of all installed apps and the amount of storage memory used by each.
