Are you signed in using the same account you used to purchase? If you have multiple accounts on the phone then you can change accounts from in the play app by pressing menu, then accounts.

Try to visit the site with your computer and see if the app is bought or not.

I've asked the mods to move that to general as it's not phone specific. I've also added a method of doing it from the address bar, so you don't have to either use Chrome or figure out how to do the same in your browser of choice.

Is My IP blocked by google? Playstore works fine on GPRS but when I try to download applications throug Wifi on note it shows server error. When i click download, it say country not supported. It lets me download through GPRS. Can anyone pls help?

Probably need to be going through a US IP address though too
Just use market access and you'll be able to download it. I'm in Malaysia and it worked for me
Another way is that enable airplane mode then use a U.S. VPN via wifi connection.
Now you have access to full market.
And sometimes you need to clear data of market app.
No root requirement.

Do you have a PC? You could use IPshield or similar to give the impression you are in another country. Or a paid for VPN service (I use UKiVPN & recommend it. It's fast, cheap & reliable). Once you can access Market on PC you can transfer aps to device. Good luck!

I mean no disrespect, but I wish people on these forums would stop being so cryptic with their "I know something you don't know mentality" & assuming everybody else is as clever as them. That's why forums get bloated with crap & make it hard work to find what you're looking for.
Just get to the point. No more half-answers please!

Vogie,
I'm not sure on the exact method to connect PC to your device but I guess it's similar to mine... I just connect USB cable and select PC data mode on Galaxy Tab. The SD card and internal storage are then visible as external disks on PC. You can copy any downloaded APK files (google is your friend) onto your sd card this way, or just plug your sd card into your PC. Once you have the APK file for the app you need install them. There are many app installer aps available for this but I guess your problem is you are not able to download one from the market in the first place!! Catch 22... Maybe best to do as the other posters have suggested and visit one of the alternative markets (google your friend) on your device.

[Q] Purchased apps now gone after upgrade to cm9

I just flashed my ROM to cm9 from cm7 and installed the google apps package.
When I log in open Android Play (same account), and go my My Apps, all my previously downloaded apps and purchases are there still there, but none of them say 'PURCHASED'. They now list the purchase price of the app. Essentially, it's not recognizing I purchased any of my apps.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
EDIT: If I go on my computer and visit https://play.google.com/store, My purchased library still exists and I am able to install it via send to phone.
So really, it's a matter of inconvenience.
I read an Engadget article saying this is happening to a ton of people and Google is aware and working to rectify it.

Many thanks for this. Moving back overseas, and this will allow me to keep my apps updated. Thanks again.
Thanks for this. Ive been wondering why all the market enablers disappeared.
cant get to work
ive tried it and all i get is t-mobile stuff still. I'm running arhd 2.2.1 which is based on the leaked ics build i believe. I've changed it through the app to different providers and it doesn't do much.
this app looks almost exactly like this one: Market Enabler. From what I saw, the only difference was the icon. It has the exact same markets to choose from.
This is their webpage: Market Enabler webpage. It's minimal, and pretty bare bones.
Other useful information:
Wiki Mobile Network Codes. This gives a list of codes for carriers world wide which can be used in the "set custom"
If this is the same app, then key information to know:
Market Enabler said:
Do I need to donate to get this working?
No, definitly not.
A donate is an appriciation to the developer/s but it's not the same as buying a software.
In case of MarketEnabler, a donate will get you a donate key that removes ads from the application and adds some beta functions that are still in testing.
I donated trough PayPal but haven't received the donate key
Please look into your SPAM folder as it is an automated script that sends you the key.
If you don't get an answer after 24 hours, please email me at [email protected].
I only get "we have a problem houston "
Are you sure that you have a working su binary and busybox (or at least the killall command) installed and granted root rights to MarketEnabler when it got requested?
Preconditions
#1 root
To be able to change the systems runtime configuration (what MarketEnabler does) you will need access as a root user to the system.
MarketEnabler expects that you will have a file called "su" on your system (and in the global path) that will open a root shell.
#2 busybox
The commands that are used, are not always part of the Android system.
Most rooted phones have busybox on board as it's common to install it during the rooting process or included in most custom roms.
If you don't have busybox, I recommend using the busybox installer from stericson on the market.

Make sure you kill Google Play Store from "Manage Apps > All" first.
Alternatively, you can do it manually:
1. Kill Google Play Store from "Manage Apps > All".
2. Go to MarketEnabler, under "Set custom" tab, input that specific country market code you wanted to visit.
3. Select "Set to this values".
4. Go to Google Play Store.
5. Enjoy!
or try this another MarketEnabler (previously MarketEnabler Codes) app: https://plus.google.com/110853353138524936530/posts

[TIP] For people who live outside the USA

Hello everyone,
I'm a Google fan and i love to use every Google services, but i'm French, and in France they they take a while to come.
I found a tip and i want to share it with you, it's a way to allow the entire Play Store services on your device.
For this you will need 3 things :
- Be ROOT
- Droid VPN : you can find it on the Play strore or https://www.box.com/s/d5c013a16bc5e1940213
- Market Enabler : https://www.box.com/s/e1cf29986ce037f77d4e
Now Create a Droid VPN account (free) and login (If it does not go into the settings and choose "TCP" as the protocol)
Start Market Enabler then go to "Setting List" and choose an operator like T-MOBILE U.S.
Check the Google Play Store is not already open, and open it!
Once opened you should see the Play Store U.S. and as soon as it is launched you can cut Droid VPN clicking "disconnect" and enjoy the Play Store U.S.!
Warning: You must repeat steps 4 installation whenever you want to use the Play Store U.S. (once used its going very fast).
Edit : - Links for direct downloads of .apk from my Box account added tell me if its works please.
- For Google Play Music PC activation take a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30733273#post30733273
Use thank's button if u like this
Cool.
This should be handy if there's a US-exclusive App that I'd like to buy/download.
Wish we didn't have to do these things and it was as polished as Apple's iTunes AppStore.

u can use market enable alone but it will just give u the apps of US it will not unlock the services that are not available in your country.
Like you can see in the screenshots in uploaded in France the Music, Magazines and soap services are not available so in I use market enabler alone I can't acces theses services.
Your IP adress (changed by VPN) at the start of Play store says the services you can use then it check your brand (changed by market enabler) to know what content to display.
Hope I help you
I am using market enabler only with no root and it is working find
While I was on gingerbread I had to use vpn connection but after upgrading to ICS and using NoteCore kernel I don't need vpn anymore and just market enabler works perfectly, I can buy applications and so on
Edit: I didn't read the last post before writing my reply, I don't use the services at all that is why I didn't know about the need for vpn

This may sound dumb but with this market ennabler; will it only get the phone recognized as say U.S. by the store,or could you end up with roaming charges if the network sees it as a USA handset? Dumb????
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
No, you should not use roaming because you use your network to use the VPN. Does anyone have sympathy tell me how to embed images directly to the tutorial, not attachments?

I tried many things, I force stopped market at one time. I am using wifi which is on a US DNS if that could be a reason. I have tried another tip which was to turn off sync and also to turn off all location settings. Nothing has worked. I have given it up as a lost cause.

In Italy is the same, no goggle music for us... Unless you don't use a workaround like the one described in the op (I registered using Tor, but it's much the same).
Once you open the music account you can access it also from you pc or phone without using the vpn every time.
