On a fresh install of Drupal 7.12 using localhost MAMP:
- I install most recent Ctools (7.x-1.0-rc1)
- I install most recent Views (7.x-3.1)
- I activate Views and Views UI
- It's not showing up in structures, but that's not a surprise according /project/views/
- I clear cache twice, as suggested
- It's still not showing up in structures... I go to forums...
- I ran update.php (as deshmukh.sandip suggests at http://drupal.org/node/1402354)
- update.php throws this error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 76 bytes) in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/drupal_test/includes/menu.inc on line 3724
which comes from http://localhost:8888/drupal_test/update.php?op=selection&token=_UGSeDpqP-R6zQNl2QsH0Vl6E6R9IhUmvG0dSz5kBC4

I've tried this multiple times and keep having the two problems of Views not appearing as a Structure, and this fatal error when i run update.php.

Really looking forward to figuring out the basics of views this weekend. Your kind advice is appreciated!

Try adding more memory.
In settings.php add this line:

ini_set('memory_limit','128M');

Thank you, that seemed to solve the problem of the error from updating, and then after a successful update Views appeared in the structures.
The settings file i edited was in in the sites/default/ folder for anyone wondering later.
