How do I fix this: Apps were downloaded but Icons don't show and I can't open them?

The 7 showing means you have apps that need to be updated. Click on the update app and on the next screen click on all available updates which probably will be at the upper left corner.

Hi Julie
If by larger screen, you mean Zoomed screen, it could be that you have turned on zoom in Settings / Accessability.
Also.... the iPad is "booted up" all the time. Generally all you are doing is Waking the iPad from sleep or screen in sleep mode.
To ReBoot your iPad (worth doing every month or so) First quit all Apps by double clicking round button and individually swipe each open App upward to shut the App down. When all apps are turned off, Hold the Top button & Round Button in together for about 5-10 seconds. This will shut the iPad down completely. When all off, Press the top button in for about 5 seconds. You will see the Apple logo while it ReBoots. This usually fixes any minor glitches etc in the Apps. If a particular App is giving problems, you can hold your finger down on it till the X shows in the LH Top of its icon. Click this and it will be wiped off your iPad. Then re download it for free through the App Store and check to see if problem has gone.

Hope this proves useful.

You don't say which iPad, but if it is the newest one, it is said that it will will run up to 10 degrees warmer that the older ones. It should be nothing to worry about as long as you aren't using it is direct sunlight. One thing you can do that should help is to open up the multitasking bar (the app bar that shows all the apps open) and close some of them. It also should be covered by the warranty. If it get so hot that it can burn your skin, I would bring it back to store for replacement, but you should be ok. Don't be surprised if this is fixed by a future patch just like the iPhone 4s battery issue was fixed. Also, if it burns out and it obviously not your fault, it is covered under the warranty.

To remove/delete an app from your iPad, do the following:

1. Press the icon for the app until all icons start to wiggle. Note, press and hold your finger down, don't just tap it.
2. When the icons start to wiggle, a small X will appear in the top-left corner of all app icons. Tap the X and you will get see a prompt asking you to verify that you want to delete the app.
3. Click "Delete" and the app will be removed.

Note: The deleted app will remain in your purchase history in the event that you ever want to re-install it.
