How can I restore restored apps with market links

I've always just let my apps automatically restore but I would like to use my backup of apps with my backup pro. But once they restore they don't show downloaded in the market. How can I change this?

Go to settings > applications > manage applications > all - find market and google framework services. Clear cache/data for both...reboot. Open market.
Wait a few mins and all the apps will show up in the downloaded section.

This was happening to me yesterday.
I went to Manage Applications->All->Market, and then clicked "Force Stop", and then "Clear Data". I reloaded the market, accepted the terms, and everything showed up again.
If just clearing the data doesn't work, force stop it and then clear. That worked for me.

okay guys that worked, thanks. I have another question though now, so because I didn't want my apps to automatically install, I used my alternate gmail account(the one my paid apps aren't associated with) to first log in with the market so I could download My Backup Pro. After restoring my apps, I logged into my original main gmail(the one the paid apps are associated with) and my paid apps still haven't showed up. What can I do to make them show up?

Hard reset / wipe and use the right Gmail first.
Sorry but the first one you put on is the one and only Gmail linked to the market. You must use that one if you want your paid apps.
Also: I know you use my backup.. but titanium backup has a "market doctor" feature that finds missing market links and lets you re-establish them.

Market sync

Hi Guys
I have this problem with android market. It is totally out of sync with my android phone.
on my PC, the market web portal shows that i have apps installed which are actually not installed. Same thing on the phone, there apps installed on my sensation that do not show as installed on the web portal
other thing is that when i format my sensation by installing an RUU, and when i sign in to my google account on the phone, it does not sync back the apps to my phone, i have to manually install them from the market either through the market on the phone or the market web portal.
Any ideas of how to solve this

[Q] Google Play..."My Apps" list question re: stock/pre-installed apps

Upfront Info:
AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4; 32gb; MDL version
Rooted & TWRP Recovery using the CASUAL java tool
*novice* android user...this is my first android device
So I just picked up the phone last Friday the 12th at an AT&T store. At the store they walked me thru an initial setup and because I could remember the password, I used an older gmail account that is more of a throw away account and not the one I would prefer to use as the primary Google Play account.
I did some other searching and as recommended I have done a factory reset and then a cache wipe (this was prior to rooting and TWRP fwiw) and then when going thru the setup again used the preferred gmail account.
All this is fine with one exception. That is that the "My Apps" lists on the phone vs. via the web do not match specifically in regard to the preinstalled/stock apps (like BlurbCheckout, AT&T FamilyMap, down to TripAdvisor). When I enter the Play Store app on the phone and go thru Menu > My Apps, all these apps show up in the Installed & All lists. However, when I log in to gmail and then go to Play and look at My Apps, these apps are not listed. Only the 2 or 3 free apps that I've downloaded so far show up.
I've been in and out of the Google Play store both on the phone and web. I've rebooted a couple times. FWIW, it did take about 3 hrs for the apps to be listed in the Play Store on the phone but it has been over 24hrs and they still do not show up when logged in to the web. I've done more than one sync.
Some of them have updates available, so I can presumably get some of them to show up that way but not all have updates available at the moment.
Any suggestions on what to try to get the preinstalled/stock apps to show up in both places?
Or is my next step contacting Google Play support?

[Q] New phone, first time on Android - no Apps show up in my Apps?

I just set my Mother-in-law up with a new Nexus 5 updated to Lollipop. She had an existing gmail account that we used to sign in at the phone setup. However, when opening the Play Store, I notice that none of the preinstalled apps (Gmail, Calendar, etc) show up in My Apps. However, searching for these apps in the Play Store show they're installed and give the option to Update them. Do I really need to do this one by one for each app for an account that has never used Android? After updating an app, then it shows up in my apps, but it seems like a giant waste of time to have to sync them with my account.

That really doesn't seem right.. I'd try a simple factory reset first and see if it works then.

Actually confirmed this with another account too (never had signed into Android before). Guess maybe the easier thing to do might be do it through the web link to Play store.

[Q] Google Play - how to link apps?

I had to change the user on the phone without resetting it.
So I added another google account and ended up with 2 accounts. Then removed the old account. Some of the apps got uninstalled and some of the data in other apps dissapeared, which is ok.
Phone works fine. Everything functions but there's one problem.
If I open "installed apps" in GooglePlay I get nothing. No apps installed. I can install a new app and it'll show up there. but all the basic stuff is gone. So Maps, Gmail, Chrome etc are not showing up there. So obviously they won't get updated ever. I understand that I can uninstall and reinstall them and they'll appear, but
Is there a way to link all the existing apps on the phone to the Play Store so they can get updates?
The phone is rooted.

Clear Play store / services : data/cache/dalvik and you shoule be fine again.

I forgot to mention - I tried to clear data on google play services, play store and google services framework yesterday.
After a reboot opened playStore and it asked to accept the terms and still didn't show anything.
