Hmm! ... it seems to work for me ... where are you putting 
\usepackage[titletoc]{appendix}

It needs to go before the code I sent previously (I think I may have
neglected to mention that) i.e.

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage[titletoc]{appendix}
\usepackage{tocbibind}
\makeatletter
...
\makeatother
\begin{document}

No, don't do that ... my new code genuinely is better ... I think you
must have the \usepackage commands after my code.

The tocbibind package seems to work quite nicely ... and it includes a
ToC line for the bibliography. Tocbibind defines the bibliography to 
have a \chapter* header i.e. unnumbered chapter heading ... as you
want. I'm pretty sure your problem here has the same cause ... my code
should come after the \usepackage commands. The tocbibind and appendix
packages shouldn't conflict ... they were both written by the same
person: Peter Wilson ... surely he would have tested them together.
Anyway, they seem to work ok for me.

You don't need this now you are using tocbibind ... but if you weren't
it would come immediately after the

\begin{thebibliography}{10}

line. Sorry ... I obviously didn't leave many clues last night ...
I must have been tired!

That's ok ... if the above doesn't work as advertised, please include
an excerpt of your LaTeX code that shows it failing and I'll see where
it's going wrong.
