Apps disappearing

[tl01]

I took my son's iPad to the apple store today to get it replaced. It's an iPad 1. I haven't updated to ios5 on this new iPad bc I think it works better on 4 than 5. Anyway, the issue is that each time I download apps I've purchased before, they look like they are downloading and then they disappear. I haven't tried to purchase new apps, but rather, I am just downloading from my already purchased list. What would be making them disappear?

Update the iPad to 5.1

Yes.

Our previous iPad 1 seemed so slow with ios 5... Even with no apps running. I wanted to avoid it. The iPad would stutter just switching from app window to app window.

5.1 is not bad on an iPad 1. Some apps may require it.

5.1 runs fine on my iPad 1.

Sorry if this is a silly question, but you tried the simple stuff like restarting or resetting your iPad?
