Hi folks, I often use iTunes to help organize my iPhone apps, rather than doing tedious things on my iPhone. When I click APPS under my iPhone device, I can move apps into folders and so forth.

However, Newsstand is invisible, which throws my folders into a nonsensical order. For example, a folder called Travel and a folder called Tech gets overlayed together, the travel apps appearing behind and slightly above the tech apps.

It's only been this way since 5.0 (and I'm running 5.0.1). On my iPhone, all apps & folders, including Newsstand, display just fine. Anyone else see this or is bugged (pun intended) by this?

Post a screenshot? I am having a really hard time trying to imagine what you're describing.

In iTunes on your computer you are seeing the folders overlaid on top of on another because of Newsstand?

Screenshot1 - Newsstand should be displayed beside iBooks app. Screenshot 2 - 'Newsstand' label appears, Capital One is in my Finances group, the selected group is call 'Remotes'. 'Remotes' group is displaying my 'Adobe' group -- nonsensical

Newsstand is also messing up my iPad. Screenshot shows my Adobe group, with 'ghosts' behind it:

A few weeks have passed. I had to uninstall/reinstall iTunes today for another reason. Doing so also resolved the weirdness in my icon display. Shoulda just done that in the first place.
