have downloaded new apps to the Apps for Scroll 2 8inch Android 2.3 Tablet directory.

However, cannot install them as they do not actually show on the tablets install app??

Can see them when connected to a PC, there are 18 apps altogether but the tablet only shows 10.

any ideas what is going on?

thanks,

Gordie

Are the apps in the APK format? (i.e. do the file names end in .apk)
If they don't, then there is your problem.

Install a file manager such as Astro or EStrong (which may have been included in the stock install app?), navigate to where the files are stored and tap to install. If a prompt comes up, click allow.
Good luck and welcome to the forum. Cheers
