Out of no where, I can't download off the Market anymore. This is what happens when I try to download when clicking on Install, it displays the Downloading icon in the notification bar and disappears without any warning or error! When I look back on the Application page for example Angry Birds, it just shows the Install button like it wasn't even touched!
I power cycled many times, I tried a lot of the tricks off of Google like Gtalk fix and the uninstalling the marketupdates trick, still no go I'd hate to reset to factory again, specially after recoverying from the Wifi issue from the other post.
Your help is appreciated!
Did you try going into applications, click on market, and press clear data?

Yessir, and cleared most google services too.
Hmmn, not sure what to tell you if you already did that?

I think the market is down. Same issue here. Try with me nexus one and it wont download either.

Same here. Can't download anything.
I factory reset (which sucked royal balls) but I think I know what caused it now, it's that Fast Web Installer for AppBrain app. When I tried to re-install it, it said something about causing issues with new market update, and I remembered that I installed it successfully before the reset. So it might of conflicted and busted my market.
Let me know if that works for you, assuming you have this app.

Nooooo..market is down!
Hmmm.. not for me, I just re-downloaded all my apps... now that you mention it, downloading 260 apps might have something to do with that :/

Interesting. I still can't. androidcentral mentioned it's down also.
I can't download any app either, and I just wasted 2 hours trying to fix it...I guess it's down!? I can see the apps, I click install, and then it says download unsuccessful, just like the OP said.

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,

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.
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.

First screenie is it saying i have the pro key installed. 2nd screenie is of TiBackup saying i dont. Taken in the same minute.

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:

Has anyone else had the problem where you're browsing the market on your a500, click to download an app, and it simply doesn't download?
About 70% of the time (conservative estimate) the "taskbar" shows that an app is downloading, but the "My Apps" panel in the market doesn't show that download. If I leave it alone, the taskbar reports that the download completed, but I don't see the app anywhere. I also noticed that if I'm browsing the market on my PC and I send an app to be downloaded on my tablet, if the "My Apps" panel isn't open on the tablet, the app will not download.
I'm running the stock OTA 3.1 ROM.
I get that a lot. I am forced to hit back and then select install or download the app a 2nd time. Not sure why.
I have always had this same problem ,even after updates from the Market. I hate the Market. It turns into a major thing just trying to download anything. It's very frustrating and takes 10 minutes of trying, trying again, cussing, connection time outs. Its pretty bad when we have a Android device and its a Android market and they still can't get it right. Maybe it's a Honeycomb thing? Maybe they should call apple and get some advice?

common issue
Go into settings
Application
Manage applications
Browse to the market app
Clear app data.
This will sometimes fix that issue but only for a while
Worked for me
Good luck
I've had the same problem. Running Taboonay custom ROM version 2.0.
market
Same here have had that problem and so does wife. I get a kick out of wife she gets frustrated and impatient and swears at it.....lmao
So for a while there I was having the same issue. I went into clock work recovery and wipe dcache and battery stats and now all is well again. I would recommend that.

My issues seems to be that when I try to pull down an app, it tells me that it is unable to purchase. And suggestions?
I've had that a few times where I couldn't purchase an app. I found that purchasing through the online market works fine and auto-installs into the right device. It might have something to do with the lack of phone and IMEI number; could be wrong though.
Also, buying stuff with my phone then installing on my tablet works fine.
Go to settings applications Tonto market app then clear . Simple fix. Simple fix
Tried all this stuff still dont work
So i tried all this stuff and it still wont even download anymore it just FC when i click the my apps button FC this is really annoying. Went to market on pc it even says the app is installed on my device and it is soooooo not. Saw on another thread someone said Google was blacklisting users they know are rooted which i think is just dumb and dont believe, who cares what we do to the device we are still running android and want to purchase apps from the store. super lame well gonna try few other things then guess reinstall rom and kernel and see if that helps thank got for titanium backup
I have a 6t tmobile version that I updated to the international version and I have an app that won't load. When I click on it I acts like is going to open and then closes instantly. Is supper quick that you don't really see it. Help. The app is the YouVersion bible app. The thing is that the app was working fine before the update to international version. And the only older versions work.
Every time I update I have a few apps that do this. I have to open the play store and let Android system WebView update to cure this problem. Have you checked for updates yet?

Oh, I get it. Did you disable it? That is very weird. That was needed and it being outdated was the exact cause of my problems when I had similar issues that you describe.
I remove many things from OOS, but I've noticed there a few things I have to make sure are up and running before I remove otherwise I have issues.
What I would do is try and re-enable that and update it. See if that fixes it. If it does great. Try and disable it again after that if you want. However I think you may need it. Otherwise if you are rooted, back up that app with TitaniumBackup, and probably it's data in Android / Data folders and try a fresh install (This should be a last resort)? <-- That is unless it's an app that doesn't really have data that matters. If it's something that can be freshly installed without worry go ahead.

I figure out how to enable it, but it did not help. The app keeps opening and closing instantly
try this
force stop the app, its probably running in the background
wipe the cache and data in the app(settings/apps and notifications/
then un install the app
now reboot, and let the phone settle in a minute
go to app store and try to download/ install again
thats what I would try.

email the developer and let him know about your issue..
Thanks for all the help. I finally got it to work. What I ended up doing was reseting the phone. I guess the last time when I used the oneplus backup app it cause a problem. Or a least that is what I think. I used the Google backup instead.
I found the answer
