I only tried with youtube, these other apps I dont will use and dont try with these. and I uninstalled it, these apps appears like youtube app in titanium backup
edit: I tried install google voice and google earth and no problem for me

I had a same problem on my Nexus S, what I did was, I navigated to /system/app/ folder on my phone with ES File Explorer, found the YouTube.apk and reinstalled it from there!
PS. Android Market and my phone showed the application as installed, and all options were greyed out (Open, Install, Uninstall)!

I fixed it with ep file explorer. Fix the youtube app
But still have problems with voice recorder thinkfree office and others that wont install and show up in my menu.

I had to do this several times because it kept getting messed up. Couldn't uninstall it normally but it didn't open.

But with titanium backup you need root access what i dont have. Then it isnot possible?

Try downloading an uninstaller app from the market.

What is that? Can you give me a name of one?

I cannot uninstall it with a free app. Google vpice or thinkfree are not even visible.
I can only see these apk files with ep file.explorer

My odd solution:
-Download GApps from Rom Manager...or wherever
-Flash GApps via recovery
-Reboot (Still no YouTube...)
-Go to Market
-Re-install Youtube from Market
When my YouTube "disappeared", it "appeared" in the Market as installed but the Open and Unistall buttons were greyed out. The icon in the drawer and the widget option were both gone.

I don't have that Think Free Office icon either in the apps drawer, but the TFO is installed in my phone. I was little bit confused about that thing, but now I see it's a common issue...?

I find it in xoom forum,thought it might help
If you have had a problem with the missing YouTube and/or Google Books applications, we have a workaround you can try.
Connect to WiFi network. (So far it looks like only WiFi Xooms have had this issue. Let me know if you have this on a Verizon Xoom.)
Go into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications
Go to the "All" tab and then scroll down and select "Google Partner Setup."
Clear Data.
Reboot your Xoom. (That is, turn it off and on.)
If this doesn't work, perform a factory reset (Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset) and try the sequence above again.
Please let me know how if this works for you.

How? Was it the suggestion to clear data from the Google Partner Setup or something else?

market and honeycomb

for those that have the iconia and already have an android device, did all of your apps restore/download? only a few of them showed up. also, after you have installed an app from the market place the app doesn't show that it's installed when you're browsing the market unlike the android smartphones.
last but not least, is there a way to stop the marketplace from automatically putting shortcuts for new apps onto the home screens?

yeah shortcuts on the hs are very annoying.

I don't have backup or restore enabled. I figured it was device based anyway and that it would only restore to the same device you backed up from. For eg. the web market.
I didn't like the idea (on my phone either) of backing up bum settings and then restoring it to a master reset device, thus causing whatever issue made me master reset in the first place.
As for the app thing, you turn that off by going to the Google Market, selecting My Apps and then touching the button to the right of that, looks like 4 horizontal bars and a little arrow pointing southeast and unchecking "add shortcuts for new apps". This will make it so no shortcuts are added to any of the home screens automatically.
Hope this helps.

Open the Market app, go to My Apps screen, open menu, uncheck Add shortcuts for new apps option.

Can't install apps from the store

Hello. I've just installed Windows 8 Release Preview 32bit on my PC. I'm not able to install Metro apps from the store. I've signed in with my Microsoft account. When I click the "Install" button, I see some flying dots on the top of the screen for a few seconds and then nothing happens. How can I solve this? Is there an alternative method?

[Q] Can't stop play apps from auto updating

Over the last 3 days, Google play has been updating my apps even though I I have always had auto-update apps unchecked since I've gotten the phone.
How do I stop this? Is there another setting somewhere?

Did you go into settings when your in Google play and turn auto update off?

Yes. Its not checked.

Go into settings, apps, Google play and clear cache and data

Mine doesn't have a check box. You have to click the option and select do not auto update apps. Mine was set to auto update over WiFi.

Sorry not to be clear. I selected never update in the same place.
I cleared the cache and went back in and it was set to always update.
I set it back to never. may apps are now all up to date. I'll let you know what happens when one is due.

Samsung/galaxy app store icon

I must be blind, because I cannot find the galaxy app store icon in the drawer. I see the one on the desktop, but if that gets deleted, where do I find the store?
Thanks,
Jim

Nope, not in application manager, either. This is a Verizon Note 4.

I have widgets for it, maybe there is no app specifically in the drawer?

I'm on AT&T and didn't have a Samsung Galaxy Store icon or app until I downloaded & installed it. IIRC I got it from Samsung's website. I was thinking I got it from the Play Store but I checked and it's not there.

So strange
If you have galaxy widget gift it mean you have that app.
Almost all galaxy device have galaxy app as a default app

I have that widget but I didn't realize it included the Galaxy App Store, really I don't think it did, maybe it gives you access to download & install it. I only looked at once before I removed it from my screen but I'm thinking when I downloaded it & installed it from Samsung's website if I already had it installed it would not have installed a second time. Installing it was one of the first things I did because I wanted to install Here Beta maps.

If you have a Samsung folder, it's probably in there. Another reason why I use Nova Launcher.
