Whenever I update any app it is causing the market to close. I'll go back to the market and the app I started the download update on will restart the download and finish. Very strange. This just started a few days ago. Any answers would be welcomed.
I have the same problem on stock rooted

Sometimes the market will force-close each time I start it forcing me to do some combination of clearing its cache, removing its update, or uninstalling the most recently installed apps. It's probably the least reliable app on my phone at the moment, with the mms app being in second place.
I've also started to have the issue of it crashing while download updates. If I restart it, it continues fine.
I have no way to qualify this, but it feels like the market app is particularly sensitive to network connectivity. Obviously it needs data to function but it doesn't seem to handle connectivity problems gracefully.
I'm still stock and not rooted.
Clear cache on market... That fixed mine.

I have this issue as well (rooted and unrooted). I was reading the google developer blog and many were complaining how this can screw up their payment, or processing of purchased apps. Not sure, but sounded like this was fairly widespread...

You are having the same problems I have. Force close on downloading of updates is very frustrating to say the least.
I am also stock and not rooted.
I have IG 1.1.1 flashed but my problem is it starts the download then freezes. The whole market goes down. If I reset the phone, when its done rebooting it doesn't reload all off my apps that were already saved to the sd card. Any ideas what is wrong or any way to get the lost apps back? I also have titanium but it only reloads them sometimes.

Thought I was alone with this! My market will also FC once I start to update an app, then multiple apps will update that I have flagged for auto-update. It seems my market gets overwhelmed by more than 1 app update running at a time. I just hit FC then re-open it and everything is fine again.
Market 2.2.6 seems a lot more stable for me. I will randomly get download failed messages from it, but it no longer seems to hang or FC anymore.

Anyone having problems with the Market? Able to download apps but they will not install, been doing it since yesterday evening. Don't think its the ROM i am using, but I just want to check with everyone else. Thanks

I had an update to titanium backup hang during installation this morning, but I cancelled and restarted and it was fine. No problems installing other apps, it should be working fine.
Been having the same issue. Just let it be and it will eventually install/download.
I've been having this problem for a while - a download will hang, and I'll have to cancel and restart it. I usually don't have a problem with the installation.
Same for me too... market hangs on download and install...

Mine finally allowed me to update and begin some installs. Hope everyone elses works out too.
Same problem using the stock rom, switched to zippe's DesireHD rom and had no problems with the market.
Yah I had the same issue as well and it happens on multiple roms.
I used to be able to fix it by logging into Google talk app but I have issues signing into that sometimes as well.
Yeah, been having major issues since last night. Made a thread in Q&A about it. I've been having the hanging downloads for a while, but used to be able to restart them, or at worst restart the phone and they would work. Last night, even a factory reset wasn't working. Then they started working for no good reason at all. Now the problem is that 4 apps refuse to install. They are Google Sky Map, MiniSquadron!, Frozen Bubble Breaker, and Frozen Bubble Breaker Editor. These all fail to install with Unknown Error -18. Really annoying since I just bought MiniSquadron and Google Sky Map is one of my favorite apps. I hope that these market issues get fixed soon.

I also notice that some apps from the market won't install on certain roms..... like I couldn't update Google streetview on ava Rom 9.... but I was able to install Google sky map just now....
Maybe u want to try a different rom to see if that solves the issue of not being to install certain apps from the android market.

Fix for Market apps not downloading or installing (image warning)
It could be an App 2 SD problem
Hope this helps
Hey there,
all my downloaded apps keep on dissapearing from the list of installed/downloaded apps inside the market.
Don't get me wrong, they are still on my system and I can use them, just the market thinks they would not be installed.
I am on Virtuous 0.9 and done no restoring of apps or what so ever.
I did a backup a few days ago with Titanium but that can't be the cause, because they keep on dissapearing....
I can go to the market and just install the apps. They will download and install just as normal. And for some time they will just stay in the list of "my apps"...
But at some point (totaly random to me, maybe after some other apps I istalled or so) the list is almost empty... sometimes with one or two entries left of the most recently installed apps.
I know I can reassociate apps with the market with Titanium (well need the donate version...) but I don't know if it helps me, because the list keeps on dissapearing and I don't want to spend money on something that does not help
Does anyone know a solution for this problem? I don't want to reassociate all the time.
(Also tried to open the market database in an sqlite browser... well but failed, is there something to decrypt or anything I have to do in order to open it?)
Well thanks for any advice,

For all of your questions about the T-Mobile G2 and HTC Desire Z
Oh well sorry
Was browsing the false forum, when I desperatly pushed the post button...
Won't happen again.
Okay I typed it, it gave me the message that I am checked in...
Now will the apps stay in my market? Hope it worked but I can't really verify it because it hapens so arbitrary.
Thanks anyway and I hope it's done...
And... well could someone move the post?
It's like a shame

well the android market been acting up recently according to engadget, perhaps thats the problem?
I am having the same problem occasionally. Installing ANY new app seems to solve this for me.
Rather annoying though.
A restart usually solves the problem for me. I dont bother anynore though. As long as my apps are installed on the phone, I couldnt care less if it shows up in myapps or not.
Same issue here...
Just spent a better part of an hour redownloading and installing most of the apps back to wake up this morning to them not there anymore...
I guess my only care would be getting the updates...otherwise doesn't matter.

@ huh28
You may have a different problem if you have to keep downloading and installing applications. When my apps disappear from myapps and i search for them in the marketplace, it always shows installed which prevents me from downloading and installing the app again
Maybe time for a wipe then...:/
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Well I think my problem is the same as huh28's...
And I thought of a wipe as well...
But since my initial post, no app dissapeared. Maybe it was the checkin, maybe it was the markets fault as Beagan mentioned (but I did not encounter other symptoms like the ones at engadged with the android market website).
But if it keeps that way, I'll never now... but well that would be great!
But as an exchange I lost my message-database couple of days ago... that's an other story, but a thought crossed my mind, if it could be related and could have something to do with the sqlite in the background. I'll keep an eye on that, but it's kind of hard to track...
i had the same problem but i went into the recovery and deleted the cache and davlik cache and restarted the phone and all the apps were back again!
maybe that will help you too.
I know there have been issues with the Market lately but this one is weird. Only one installed app shows up in my market now. All installed apps were showing up after the update and all of a sudden... gone... any ideas???

If you are using the 2.2 OS, it may be the test keys are not released to the market, so it cannot detect your phone...I think.
I'm thinking it may have been with the market as my wife's had a issue to and both phones started getting server errors but after a while loaded everything correctly

My market acts funny too. After I installed froyo today, i started downloading apps from the market. All went fine until I tried handcent sms. I keep getting network error, retry or cancel. No matter how many times I retry it doesn't work. Any other app downloads just fine.
It will also give me network error when i access my apps from the menu in the market, but not all the time. I installed wiping data and cache several times.
Any ideas?
Great here !
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Having similar issues on my gf fascinate too. Installed froyo without a hitch and now market seems fine at first. Installed superclean rom and everything is good. Until I start using the market. I can download maybe one app, then when I try to download another it says unsuccessful installation. Tried different apps and got the same result. I did notice that if I turn off mobile data and run strictly off wifi then its fine and I can install any apps. I can't really figure it out until she pays her bill so it can actually get a 3g connection but thats odd how it interferes with it. Any ideas guys? Thanks in advance!
Is anyone else having issues with the Market? For the last few days it keeps saying I have updates available for the same 8 apps Angry Birds, Titanium Backup, Evernote, etc. I've updated them and then the next day the same apps have updates available. Today there were additional apps that needed updates along with the same group. Anyone else have this problem?

Wipe data and cache...that may help!
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I wiped cache, didn't help but did speed up my Market app. I'll wipe data after my phone charges since it just died.
new update, so I decided to try and update individually, after selecting Angry Birds for instance inside it only has options for Open and Uninstall. So it seems internally it knows its up to date but in the list view it doesn't.
What is happening to you is definitely freaky. I would try to wipe the app cache and then use cache cleaner and clear all of the caches. Then i would reboot and see what happens.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Update: deleted cache and data. Deleted backup of Market app in Titanium and deleted data of Market through Titanium also. Restarted phone and now works normal.
Quick note, last night i let the phone's battery drain fully and charged it over night. Turned it on this morning and it went into Recovery. Restarted phone and ot started up normal. There seems to be a gremlin lurking somewhere.

Update again: well thought it was fixed. But happened again, this time had 2 updates and first one was fine but second one which was Sketchbook Express only had the Open and Uninstall option! Maybe I should've just used the update all. Emailed Android and they suggested uninstalling Market updates and it will update back to latest market version in a few days. They said if it happens again to email them again.
Old market works fine for now. Saw Sketchbook had an update and updated it. We'll see how this goes and keep you guys updated. If this keeps up maybe I'll just reset the whole phone and go to CM7.

I am having similar issues. For some reason only paid apps show is the "My Apps" list. After installing and uninstalling a single app all apps show, but only temporarily. This is getting really annoying.
I have also seen that google does know about the problem, but im not sure how that will help lol
Must have something to do with the latest market and handling videos. Well atleast I know I'm not alone now.

I have a g2 and some apps which have updates such as angry birds or facebook have no update or even uninstall button, just open, can I get some help? Thanks, ill post a picture of what I'm talking about in a second

So are you rooted?
If so, use something like Titanium Backup to wipe market data or do a cache wipe and reboot. That's how most market issues are fixed.
Unless they are pirated, I've noticed on the new market it will pick them up but you cannot manage them.
Apps preinstalled cannot be uninstalled (unless rooted). And the new market sometimes fails to show the update button, and will sometimes show an update even if there is none. Don't worry, it eventually works itself out. Google was supposedly pushing out a better version that is slightly less buggy.
