Not showing all my Apps in the New Android Market

Trying to see if this is just me or other people experiencing the same issue. Android Market updated last wk and now only the apps that I have purchased are showing up under my apps. Under the help section they say this is a known problem. There are certain times when I go into the market and click on my apps and everything shows up but thats like 1/10 times. Anyone experiencing the same issue?
BTW I'm running CM7 nightly on build 08052011

you might look in titanium backup i think you can batch relink apps to the market.

Thanks for the input but I've never heard of "batch relink". Can you describe it more in depth? To clarify all my apps are still on my phone. If I search for the app by name it shows as being installed on my phone, just not under MY Apps.

Saw something called Market Doctor in Ti Backup that sounds like what you are talking about but after that ran it said it restore link for 6 of my apps but still same result only paid apps showing under My Apps.

sorry its called "attach to the market"
try it with a single app if you want, find one thats not linked currently. open titanium go to backup/restore tab & long press on the app you want. you should have an option to attach to market.
let us know if that helps
but yea market doctor might be what does them batch style.. i dunno if a reboot might help after applying

When I long press anyone of the apps that isn't showing up there is a bunch of opts but i don't see attach only one I get is detach from market. Which makes me believe it is linked correctly. Tried rebooting, same issue. Maybe this is a issue on their end since some times all my apps does show up. Just weird if no one else is experiencing this.

In TB, if you hit menu, more you should see the market doctor. If that doesn't work, delete the data for the market. I had to do that to fix mine.

Went to Ti Backup selected Market. Wiped data. Ran the Market. It asked for me to accept to the terms which I did. Same result only paid apps are showing up in My Apps.

This has been a problem with the Market for a while for me. You should be able to see all your apps, paid and free, on the Market website (https://market.android.com). I've never done a "market repair" before.

My issue is that certain apps are just plain no longer showing in the market. such as Better keyboard 8. I love this keyboard, bought the pro version and have a couple of favorite skins for it. now it dont show up in the market.

I was finally able to resolve my issue, here is what I did. Using Ti Backup I selected the Market and restored a older version. The version i had backed up was 2.x I havent done a back up in a while. After the Market was restored to the older version I ran the app. It ask me to accept the term, after i click ok the app forced closed and it automatically downloaded a update. After a few mins I clicked on the Market again and it once again ask me to accept to the term but this time it was the new Market. All my apps are in the My App section. Thanks for everyone for their advise and input. With out the ideas that was tossed out there I wouldnt know where to start or what to try.

Update:
Same thing again only purchased apps are showing in My Apps. I can do the same thing over again and all my apps will show up but this seems to be a temporary fix. Any other suggestions?

[SOLVED] Apps saying not installed, but they are.

In my market, it says i have all these apps not installed. But they are all installed. When i click on them it doesnt say install, it says open. The apps run fine n are in my drawer. Is there a way to fix this? Its just really annoying when my "Pro" keys arent being used. Like, titanium backup says im using the free version when i have the pro version installed, same for my launcher pro key.

EDIT: can this be moved to the Q&A section, accidentally put in general. Thank you.

Same thing with me... google maps, youtube, and a few others are in the Not installed section, but when you select them it says installed, and you only have the option to open. I'm assuming they are still being checked for updates when I open Market... at least I hope they are. More annoying than anything else. Any thoughts?

Open up the "Manage Applications" and find Market. Clear the cache and reopen. Should show up now. Had to do that on mine.

I have the same problem, and agree it is annoying.
It started happening when I did a titanium backup after unlocking. So I guess there must have been some problem syncronizing with market after.
I have solved the problem by uninstalling the applications that were listed as needing updates even though they were already updated. And when reinstalled, the notification went away. It's not a very elegant way of fixing the problem, I know.
If anyone else has a better solution, please advise.

I learned this method from another forum (can't remember where); it always works for me:
Exit all applications on the phone
Home > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All
Market: Clear Cache, Clear Data (OK)
Google Services Framework: Clear Cache, Clear Data (OK)
Reboot your phone
Open Market app and Accept the TOS
Market > Settings > Content filtering > Set level > Show all apps (OK)
Market > My Apps: no more missing apps, or false positives for updates
I've tested this many times with the new Market app on my AT&T phone in both stock GB and piCRUST. It always fixes the display of installed apps within the Market app itself. But the list of apps showing on the Market web site under My Account (https://market.android.com/account) may not be immediately updated with the results. Sometimes the Market web site will be updated later rather than sooner, or only partially rather than completely. But this local fix will usually affect the web listing to at least some degree.
(Space reserved for future rant on market web site lameness...)

Did it, now i get a server error everytime i open the market. Just reinstall apk of new market?
EDIT: just used task killer to kill it all then retried n it worked. All my apps are saying installed. Thanks so much.

I see that error occasionally after using this fix, but I also sometimes see it after re-flashing the phone, and after other seemingly unrelated actions. It usually goes away for me if I just turn on wireless first before opening the Market app (no need to reinstall it). I think it's related to some error in the app or settings initialization, and not specific to this clean-up routine or anything else.
And yes, I've found that using a task killer also seems to help. Maybe indicative of another app blocking the Market from opening correctly at first run? I don't know, but once it goes away it doesn't seem to come back.

Thanks, this worked flawlessly.

Could I suggest you add "Solved" to the title of this thread so others that might have the same issue could use this?

Got it. Ive had to re do this fix after my phone shuts off, so its not permanent on my device. It might be for you, either way, it fixes it for awhile.

One other thing that will confuse the Market about what's kosher: using a non-standard LCD density.
In my case I had hard-coded build.prop to set ro.sf.lcd_density=300 and ever since I did that the Market website kept telling me that most of the apps I'd previously installed were not compatible with my Atrix 4G(!) My workaround was to revert to the default ro.sf.lcd_density=240 and then use the "LCDDensity" app to temporarily set it to 300. Whenever I need to go to the Market for something I just reboot the phone first and it reverts back to the default setting in build.prop.
If you've got it the other way around (e.g. build.prop is using a non-default setting, and you're using LCDDensity to override this back to the default), then that might explain why you're seeing this Market mischief return on reboot.
Even if you're not using LCDDensity (or you're using something else like "LCD Density Changer" which can make these changes permanent), you might want to check your current LCD density. Ditto for other property settings that might not be using their defaults.
Here's a list of all the things that the Market looks for to determine if a particular phone is compatible with an app:

[Q] Android Markets Fix on My NC running CM7

Thanks high and low to you devs doing your good stuff. Get your vitamin D lacking self outside for a bit and have a beer on me!
I've searched high and low for a Market fix. I've cleared cach's loaded every market from 3.0.26 to the new 3.2.0. Flashed every Rom from CM7.0 to the newest nightlies. My screen density is set to 160. I've done the permission thing on ROM manager 100 times. Still no dice.
The market will not let me update or load apps that were no problem before. Facebook, Netflix, Zinio, ect. It seems the d*$& heads at google and the app developers don't like my rooted device. Can we fix this, or should I go stab some jerks in the eyeball with a cellphone tower ?

This was fixed starting with nightly 200. You should be able to find and install the apps. You should also be able to do updates directly through the AppBrain app now as well.

My screen density is set to 160.

Running 233 nightly and kernel 2.6.32.9 market 3.1.5 and my device is not compatible with Appbrain either. Appreciate any help!

Leave Manufacturer set to HTC and Device and model to Vizion... then Try Manage Applications.... All applications.... Market.... clear data... return to you home screen... launch Market.

Tried both prescribed cures and still have the Market Coodies. Looked at my devices in android market and it says I have a Nook Color. How do I change that?

That's because Google recognized the device when you first set it up with the market way back when. I have not yet found a way to "deregister" a device with my Google account, I only see an option to hide the device. Maybe someone else has figured this out?
I'm not really sure that is relevant though. I am on 201 and have no compatibility issues with the new market now that the LCD density is at 160.

[Q] Changing Keyboard Help

Rooted Nook Color 1.43. Downloaded "Softkeyboard With Ctrl" but it doesn't show in apps. Google Play shows installed. I opened Keyboard in settings (Zeam Launcher) but saw no way to choose a different keyboard maybe because "Softkeyboard With Ctrl" isn't really installed. Just lost on this and need some direction. Is my problem it didn't really install. I saw it downloading or thought I did.

Try redownloading, it should show up in apps.

I think my previous post was unclear. If you mean apps on the NC the app doesn't show up on my list of apps when I choose apps from Zeam.
If you mean Google Play, My Apps, yes it is there but when I follow that to the app and click on install I get "No eligible Devices". Note it says Installed and does say it is installed and comparable with my device, It is when I click on "Installed" I get "No eligible devices".
This is where I'm stuck. I can't uninstall from the NC because it isn't listed and Google Play won't let me reinstall. Do I need to look in the file manager for it and delete or maybe download to my computer and side load but I'm new to tablets and am not sure how to do those things yet. I was hoping for a simple solution.
Final comment. I have installed apps before and no problem so this seems related to this specific install not a general fault of the NC.

Sideloading might be an option if you can find the APK. For me Zeam and stock were from way back and I can't remember what's where anymore, sorry I can't be any more help.

Well I learned something new. i have been accessing the Play Store from my computer because it is easier to navigate but I found going directly from my NC I was able to uninstall so I'm now reinstalling. I'll see what happens.

Well it is on the NC. Now to figure out how to set the default.

Thank you. Your answer led me to the crux of the problem. I found a page with a solution. I must move the APK and use Nook Tools to do the selection.

Your observation about the PlayStore has been made by digixmax recently. I don't have a solution for that one. I still get a lot of (sometimes useless) apps on a search. You can use a computer to access the Store and have the app sent to your device.
I can confirm that both the Amazon App Store and the Kindle app are broken. You can still read local content with the Kindle app.
You can also get apps from direct-download sources and side load them.

It's remotely possible someone may tinker with the apps but unlikely. You might as well remove the Amazon App Store. If you have local .mobile content the Kindle app could still be useful.
Edit: Could you try something with Search Market? I did a search on "Kindle" and got 250 hits today. Use the menu "button" to access Settings and see if your app filter is too restrictive. I have mine set for all apps, but that does tend to give a lot of junk after the initial near hits. Maybe that's why people are getting so few hits?

Yes. When you start Search Market you get a keyboard and a blank search field. The menu button does nothing there. Directly to the left of the search field is a "button" that takes you to a more typical Market screen where, among other things you can look at "My Apps" for your NST. It's on this screen that the menu button wiil bring up Settings.
I don't know that I ever changed the restrictions on what kinds of apps to display but it occurred to me recently that this might be the issue you and others have been seeing. It's worth a shot, anyway.

When I do this, what I get (at the screen bottom) are "Search", "Downloads", and "Help", but no "Settings".
I am using the SearchMarket version you attached to your post here, so perhaps this behavior disparity has to do with my NST running on 1.2.1 as opposed to 1.1.2?

I have always run FW 1.21.
This whole thing just gets curiouser. I went back for a closer look and that "button" I mentioned actually calls the Market app (AFAICS) and it's there that I get a "settings" option along with the others you mention. There is a filter in the settings for what kinds of apps to display but I don't know to what extent the apps interact (if at all), and in any case, changing the filter setting seemed to have no effect. I still got many, many results from a search using Search Market.
So I went back to the original GApps post to see if the package had been updated since I did my install. Certainly the file name is the same and the size seems to be the same. There is some talk there about changing the way you sign into the Market, etc., but it's not clear to me when that changed and I rooted my NST with NookManager so long ago (or so it seems to me) that I just can't remember. I do still have the original zip of the Gapps Attack file, FWIW.
My "Market" app is 4.03 MB on the NST but there's no obvious version number anywhere I can see. However replacing that one seems risky since the whole sign-in thing with Google is so tricky.
I'm stumped. As clunky as the Search Market app is, it has been useful to me because it only displays apps that have the potential to run under Android 2.1. I went through many, many apps when I was looking for a sound recording app that would work well and create mp3 files. Using Search Market shortened what was already a tedious process.
