This one caught me out for a while!

In Tiger I would drag one or two application alias' to the Finder Toolbar.

When I upgraded to Leopard I found they were still in place but I was missing Quick Look.

Basically the Quick Look icon didn't install because it did not have the room. Easily fixed then by simply removing the App alias' and then right-click on the toolbar - choose 'customize toolbar' and then drag the default set to the toolbar.

There is then still room to drag one or two Apps back up there.
 
I had the same problem, but I didn't have any app aliases (or any customization at all) in the toolbar--I had merely upgraded from Tiger. It seems as if the new toolbar (including Quicklook) was not installed during the upgrade. I fixed it in the same way you've outlined.
 
It saves the settings from Tiger, and as there is no quick look thingy in Tiger there's no such button in your settings.

Quite a bit of bad thinking from apples side.
 
I'm not sure why a person would want to have the Quick Look button there in the first place. Much faster, IMO, to simply thwack the space bar to Quick Look the item.
