This used to work on my NST and I can't pin-point when it stopped so I'm not sure if I did something that made it stop or if it's just Google cutting us loose.
I can still use SearchMarket and download apps that way. I can still see "My Apps" in Market. For awhile when I would select an app on my PC and have it "sent" I would see it in the "My Apps" list on the NST, but not as installed. Now even that doesn't happen.
So...does this still work for anyone else? If so, does anyone have any ideas on troubleshooting this issue?

Is there anyway (with root access or not) to clear the My Downloads cache of Applications that remain even after uninstalling an App?
Thanks in advance.
Once uninstalled mine go away after a day or two.
That isn't working...
Isn't there some kind of remnant of an application that remains behind even after uninstalled? If I remove this do you think it will be "cleared", and if so what is it and where?
i don't think the downloads are connected to your phone or in any way saved there, i am pretty sure that your downloads are associated with your google account and so if someone else signed in to your phone they would see theirs. the "my downloads" aren't taking up any space so no need to worry about them.
P.S. feel free to correct me if i am wrong but i am sure i read this somewhere on the boards
My brother-in-law received his incredible yesterday (I am a Nexus One owner) and I got him set up with Google Voice when starting up the application we get to a screen that says something to the effect of "an application needs to access your google voice credentials for this account". I hit the accept radio button and hit "Next" and it always force closes. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but to no avail. This was the one downloaded from the Market as the phone did not come with it pre-installed. Has anyone else had this issue? Could anyone help me figure out what the issue is?
Also, I was unable to find google earth in the Market on his phone. I was able to find it just fine from mine. What is the deal with that?

I was able to load it no problems. I also had to download it from the market. Try to factory default your device and start over.

That seems to have cleared it up. Thanks for the help.
I've been having a problem with losing my accounts. CM7, emmc, today's nightly, but it's been happening for a couple of weeks.
The most visible symptom is that the WiFi indicator goes white. WiFi itself is working just fine, but I can't access my Google account for Contacts or Market. I use K-9 with gmail, and that still works (different protocol and authentication method).
Has anybody else been seeing this? If so, what do you do about it?
Contacts shows my non-Google contacts, Market (new version, which might be significant, see below) tells me that I have to sign in first, but silently closes when I tap on the button to do so.
Settings/Accounts shows me some random subset of my other accounts (Facebook, LinkedIn), and when I try to add an account from there, it doesn't present me with the option of adding a Google account, just Corporate (Exchange), and whichever of Facebook or LinkedIn are still present.
The solution that works best so far is to re-install gapps and go through the sign-in procedure again. The WiFi indicator goes green and all is well. I tried removing /data/system/accounts.db and rebooting (a hint from a possibly-irrelevant thread), but that didn't really fix the problem.
The really weird thing is that I installed the new Market a week or so ago, but reflashing gapps doesn't blow it away, even though the gapps .zip (20110613) contains a smaller Vending.apk than the new Market zip does. I tried to uninstall Market (!) so the next time I reflash gapps I'd get the old one back, and it was willing to uninstall Market's "updates", which appears to have reverted Market to the gapps zip version, after one FC, without requiring a reboot.
Unfortunately, I can't remember whether this was happening before I installed the new Market. I should keep a log...
Thanks for any help you can render!
Could that be behind proxy causing those problems?

I don't think so; there's certainly no explicit proxying going on here. Our corporate firewalls can be interesting, but I'm connected to an unsecured access point for use by visitors. Also, it's not a solid failure; things work fine until they don't.
It doesn't really act like a network problem; if a corporate firewall can remove my Google account from Settings/Accounts, we have serious security issues.
BTW, jazzbass12 has reported what looks like the same problem in this post. The solutions proposed there don't seem to work for me.
I don't recall not able access gmail or not but when I'm at work and using unsecured access point for visitor (just like your company), I cannot download or install any app successfully, they all queue up and do nothing until I go home and using my home network. Wifi indicator shows white vs green? Is that it?

Right, I get a white indicator but (new) Market stuff doesn't queue up, it tells me to log in, but fails when I let it try. I think that this hasn't happened with the old Market, but I can't prove that yet. Which Market app are you running?
My other clues are that Settings/Accounts doesn't show Google or let me add one, and the Google Contacts are missing; the rest of the contacts are there.
Still using the old Market, haven't updated yet.
So, I reset my DVP due to some audio playing issues that were cleared up, which seems to have fixed my problem.
However, I'm missing the "My Account" app that gives me access to account information from T-Moible, my provider. I can't find a way to download it, and it's not appearing on its own with my SIM card in the phone.
Is there some way to trigger it to download?
It is in the market place.
I don't think it is. Under what name? I've searched every way I can think of, and haven't found it yet.
For the hell of it, I double checked--unless it's hidden (and well), it's not on the Market place.
It's the top result when I search for "My Account" in the Marketplace. The full app name is T-Mobile MyAccount. You can also find it by searching for "T-Mobile USA".
FYI it can only be installed directly on the phone. It doesn't show up in the Zune PC app.

Ah, figures it was so simple--I tried searching T-Mobile in the Marketplace App, but not My Account. Very much appreciated, PJfan, Zurvv.
I recently got rid of my old gmail account and created a new one. I deleted accounts.db from my nook and re-registered with my new gmail address through the Market.
Gmail and calendars synced fine after this, but the Market will not download any apps and the Nook isn't listed as a device under my new google account.
Is there any way to fix this besides re-rooting? I was about to re-root, but after thinking about all the apps I have to reinstall and the settings I have to fix, I decided it wasn't worth it. I have my nook set up nicely and won't necessarily need the Market, plus I'm pretty sure I can still side-load apps anyways so could just find the APK for stuff instead.
But, if there is a way to fix the Market without re-rooting, I'd love to know.
It may be too late unless you have a backup containing the accounts.db file, but take a look at this.
Thank you so much for your response.
Although it was a frustrating process, I did end up re-rooting. It was worth it in the end to re-root. I also did not back up my accounts.db when I had deleted it, so as you said, I think it was too late to do anything about it.
But to add to the discussion, when I go to manage applications in the launcher I use, Home[+], there's no option to clear data for Google Apps, only to clear the cache. Other apps like Google Talk allow for their data to be cleared.
I use ADW Launcher and checked in the Manager section to see if I had the same situation. I do. Some Google apps have the "clear data" option, others do not.
