Well, I've searched and searched and Googled and Googled but it seems that this error persists for me.
I downloaded the MySpace mobile app from Marketplace and found that when I try to login, it provides me the error message, "Unable to contact server. Application will now close." This has been pestering me for weeks now. I have tried digging through the phone's internet settings, proxy, registry; everything looking for something. It's time I break down and ask.
Any insight on this issue would be well appreciated.

I had this happening all of the sudden as well. It has worked all the time. Though like a week ago it suddenly decided it doesn't work anymore and I see the same error. I already tried re-installing but no luck. Unfortunately all other apps are working (Marketplace, google maps, email, opera, motweets etc.)
Yes, it seems very odd. I am wondering why there seems to be no real solution. I have found many questions about it but no one seems to know why it happened.
Same situation here and still no solution found.
Its a large problem.
There are complaints all over the Internet about this. It has been going on for a while now. Even bigger problem is that once you install it, and it doesn't work, there is no way to uninstall it.
The Mypace application doesn't work anymore. It has to do something with their server, and I doubt there is ever going to be a fix..it has been like this since 3 months
Today I received my new shiny Asus Transformer, everything works great except the Market itself...
I can't even download any apps, paid or free. When I try to download any apps, it start like trying to download, but there is no progress on notification bar and it just keep like that.
I reset the tablet several times, also, cleaned the cache of the Market and Framework services, shutdown (restart) several times... nothing
Is this happening to anyone? I searched this forum and performed the steps above, but still nothing...
Please, help
Have you look into My App area, you will see, not installed list of apps. I get that as well...I am not sure if it's a bug or intended. Sometimes, it would stay at download forever. I got to go out and go back into the Market and redo it all over.

Yes, sometimes the apps I am trying to download don't even appear there and sometimes it does. When it says "Installing" sometimes, 1 hour can pass and still nothing... no progress on the notification bar.
In fact, I can't install anything from there, not even using the website version, https://market.android.com/
I had/have this same issue I think its a bug in the market app. I've just flashed the new firmware and it seems to work OK now.
My solution was to press back over and over until I exited the market fully, then start a new instance of it. Works on and off.
Ill let you know if the update solves this issue.

Thanks for the info.
I tried that, still no luck I need to know if this is a widespread issue or not.
I have the EVO and tried to download apps and install them now without any problems.
Also, I have discovered that I can't log in into GTalk either, but I can browse without any issues.

Sounds like an odd issue with your account. Try to check settings, accounts an sync .. and see if anything is amiss. If not, then try to create a new gmail account, and use that to login to market/gtalk. See if there is some confusion as to your phone account and your tablet. Do you have settings>Privacy ticked off for google to back up your apps and sync them? Try disabling if so.
Had same issue and went into settings and had to delete my gmail account and then add it again, worked fine after that!
Thanks for the replies.
1. The Backup and Restore settings are turned off.
2. I have created another Google account and removed the original, still the same problem.
3. The EVO is currently off just in case.
After doing some research, I've discovered that Gtalk have something to do with the Market, if Gtalk can sign in, then the market should works for downloads. If not, then there is a problem.
ok... wtf
After adding a new Google account while replacing the original one, the issue still happened.
Then, I decided for a million times, to make another Factory Reset with my original account again... now GTalk logon and the Market download/install apps
I will keep this thread in mind and report if anything weird happens again.
Android Market hates me. I didn't really want to have to create another gmail account but I have tried every other trick posted and still can't get apps to download.
I had this same problem with my Samsung Fascinate. 3G would download fine but I couldn't get WiFi to work until just recently when I updated the radio that came with the OTA Froyo update plus a new custom rom/kernel. I'm not sure which piece all of the sudden made things work but I was certainly happy. What's so frustrating is that I set up a Droid on the same home network with absolutely no problems from day one.
Amazon App store works fine but many of the apps I want aren't available there. Grrr.

This occurred to me after rooting the TF. I was able to correct it by going into applications and force stop and clearing data on both Market and both google framework services. Then try to restart market, if you don't get a error go back to applications and do it again. Once you get the error reboot, when you try market after the reboot it will ask you to accept terms again and then all is was right again with the world.
I have the same problem. How I can do a Factory Reset?
It was working ok but now it gives an error with the server. Eventually it will download the aplication after trying several times but will fail in the instalation. I have deleted and created again my account with no results.
Welcome to my problem. Another member told me the issue lies with our google accounts and how it syncs up with the market.
I have tried the other methods deleting cache / signing in and out etc. to no avail.
Only solution is to factory reset. Sad thing is it has happened to me 3x in the past 5 days.
I only hope for a solution to this soon.
3 times, that is scary.
Something has surprised me when I upgraded my phone to the new Galaxy S 2 from HTC HD 2 running an Android rom. When I introduced the google account it automaticaly pointed me all the aplications that I had installed in the old phone (free or paid) and give me an easy option to install all quickly. They were identified as my aplications, even they were not installed.
Is this funtion present here? It will remember what aplications I had installed in the transformer before or I will need to look for all of them again?
solution to download apps
press on apps on the home screen. then press on market. this will get you started click on sign in at top right of screen. it should automatically do a sign in with your google account. then go from there
I just bought this TF700 today. I updated all the firmware and everything. It does not stream netflix. Loads netflix. Will not stream a video. I get error 12001 every time. Is this a known thing with this device or is it the Android version or what? This is one of the primary reasons I picked up this tablet. I'm contemplated returning it tomorrow and would like to know if there is some kind of work around. I just can't find any good info on it.
Thanks,
Wes
hasnt been a problem with me, i just watched some breaking bad, maybe contact netflix for support?

Just thought I would update on this. Some miraculous thing occurred and it just works now. I uninstalled and rebooted for about the 40th time and Netflix is working now. I have no idea what the issue was but it was something...
If anyone else has this problem, this is what I did this last time.
I went into the settings > apps and force stopped netflix then uninstalled all updates. I then rebooted. Then I went into settings > apps (make sure it's on ALL) and found the netflix thing that comes on the device. I force stopped it and then rebooted again. At this point I downloaded the Netflix updates, rebooted one more time and ran netflix. Now it works. Hallelujah!
I had a problem with netflix when I factory reset the tablet and when I tried to sign in it kept saying I enter wrong username or password..... Did it 10 times and nothing, tried to log on to my netflix on the computer and it worked fine... Only thing I can think of is I forgot to update netflix when I factory reset.. maybe that was the problem...

So I updated to 4.4.2 about a month ago with a guide from here. Had minor issues with Google Play not working properly, keeps telling me "can't play stream", or "can't play selected track" halfway through playing. When it works fine on my Asus table and my Surface pro just fine. Aside from that, all of a sudden I can't get into recovery. It's like it doesn't exist anymore. I noticed this yesterday when I tried to root my phone with ioroot. I can use ADB to reboot the phone into recovery, but it flashes for 2 seconds like it's loading something. But doesn't go any further. It's quite annoying and perturbing. I'm wondering if it's worth to just reflash back to 4.2 or 4.3? Or if you guys have any other insight or helpful tips?
Anything is much appreciated.
My tablet has been running fine for years. I don't do much with it except home banking and reading with the nook and kindle apps. However, for the past week I haven't been able to connect to the Nook site to download any new books. The site still works as I've downloaded new books to my PC and phone. When I try I get the message "a secure connection could not be established" thru the browser and "unable to connect to the server. Try again later" thru the app. Any suggestions on what to do?. I noticed that I can still log into my bank. However, I would really like to be able to continue to read from my Nook app. My tablet uses Android version 4.0.3 As I said, it worked fine a month ago when I bought several new books.
By the way. I have already reset the tablet to factory settings and now can't even sign in with the app.
