Market app issue?

When I check my apps on the android market place not all of them are there!, I was looking for apps that I've recently download it from the market place and they are simply not there, anyone know what is going on here?.
And I mean when you check your downloaded apps not all show up which they should, such as angry birds and a whole bunch of others

The issue was finally fix when I unistalled the updated market version, and went back to the old market and than I upgraded the market app. All you have to do to upgrade after downgrading it is: open it up exit it and wait 5 mins and relaunch it, it should self update like this

app problem
well if you used a sideloader or used a backup program (rooted device backup) then they will not show on the market

I believe there was a market update. Download any app from the market, then force stop the market from settings/applications/manage applications (Market will be under the "All" tab). Open it and check again. If it's still broken, try rebooting.
If that doesn't work, try clearing data for the market from "manage applications"

this generally happens because of content filter settings.
If you have the NEW market,
1) press menu button,
2) tap settings
3) adjust content filter settings to show you all apps.
If you dont have NEW market,
No Idea!! I connected to my 3g network and got the new market. Till then i was stuck! so get the new market!!

[Q] How to repurchase a app?

So I guess this is the right section, correct me if i am wrong.
I've installed a craked version of Beautiful Widgets (shame on me) so I could try it for some time. Now I want to buy the application and I cant! Somehow the android market thinks i've purchased the app.
Does any one know a way to fix that?
Tks

Have you tried uninstalling the cracked version first? That should in theory let you buy it. If you already did that then I have no idea lol.

I've flashed the new GB, so the app is not at my phone anymore /=

Try clearing data for the market. Go to settings > applications > manage applications, then select the "all" tab. Scroll down until you find the market app and select it. Select the "clear data" button. If that doesn't clear the cache - it should - clear that as well. Then open the market and search for Beautiful Widgets. Hopefully you'll be able to purchase it before it repopulates your list of apps.
I've noticed this with apps that I got for free from Amazon. If you cannot get that to work, wait until there's an update to BW. Once you see the "update" button and select it, you'll be given an option to buy it. I thought that somehow the Market integrated with Amazon (yeah right), but unfortunately not.
I think pirating apps is sleazy, especially considering that they're usually only $1-$3 and a one-time purchase. But thank you for actually purchasing the app after pirating it.

I´ve already tryed to clear the market data and no succes =/ Guess I will have to wait for the next update from Level Up.
I agree with you plainjane, the apps price are VERY reasonable, but I like to try the apps for some time before buying them and the new market refound system makes impossible to try the app for some time.
Any other suggestions?

Have you tried purchasing it from a computer? Go to the market website and try there. If you're able to purchase it there, the download should automatically start on your device if you're connected to the Internet.
Alternatively, you can reinstall the app and uninstall it from the market. You should then have the option to purchase it.
If you can't get anything to work, you can always contact Market support.

If you think you still have remains on your phone from the cracked version you can try the app in my signature "sd maid" to remove those remains.

Try installing the cracked version and uninstalling through the market. Not an ideal solution but I think that will work.

Sadlly no. The web market (market.google) has a database for the purchased apps. So if you install a cracked version of an App google put a purchased flag on the database. But i think that the old market does not use this database that is why i was abble to buy the app using the old market.
When i say the old market i mean that one that came with the 2.2, with a green half circle on top.

OK the way to do it that has worked for me when I use cracked apps to test is that, it will look like it thinks you have purchased but when you hit update or install, it will ask you to pay.
Remember to hit the thanks button if I helped! It only takes a second!

thx for helping out, but problem not solved!
i have tried the following:
* update from cracked app
* uninstalled cracked app and then install from market
* uninstalled cracked app, installed demo version from market and then tried to upgrade to full version
all of these attempts failed!
it just says in the market that the app is purchased and when i try to install it (or update it), it says something like "download declined because app is not purchased"!
i guess a full wipe would be a solution, but i´d rather not do that, right now!

Full wipe won't help...at least it didn't in my case. I have done a few full wipes and even switched between android versions and still get to "download and install" before it tells me app is not purchased but there is no purchase option in market, only install...

don´t allow intall apk sd or market!!!!

Suddenly my optimus 3D dont allow install apk from sd and i can´t download from market, download never end or the install button appear dislable.
Any idea?

Are you a rooted user who has used a task manager to stop some auto running apps? If so you probably need to reset the auto run permissions for the market app.
If not, have you checked that you have the "allow non market apps" option ticked in the phones settings menu under the applications section? This enables installation of apps from places other than the android market.
Dave

maybe!!!!

If you didn't change any settings using a task manager then market should be fine but if you want to check you can install an apps manager (I use the gemini app manager which is free on the android market so can only tell you how to do it with this app though it should be the same for most similar software).
Start the app manager and you will see a list of programs that are on your phone, scroll down the list until you see the android market app showing (it will just say "market" and a pic that looks like a green suitcase next to it).
Click on that picture and a menu appears with lots of choices.
Choose the choice that says "configure auto run" and after a few seconds it will show you a screen that has lots of writing on with "on/off" sliders at the right of the screen.
Basically if these are all green then the problem is not the market apps permissions. If any are not green just touch them and they will turn green. When all are green again just hit your phones back button and see if market now works properly.

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?

[Q] Google Search not finding installed apps

Greetings,
Google Search no longer finds applications on my device.
When I tap the magnifying glass shortcut key, the familiar search window opens. If I type "calc," several search suggestions and several of my contacts appear, but the calc app does not.
I can scroll to the bottom of the found contacts and tap, "Search phone." When I do, another window opens, with a slidable bar across the bottom which says, "Web, Images, Places, More ..." and "Phone" is highlighted in red, but no results for "calc" are found.
When I open the drawer and use GoLauncher's search, the calc app is found immediately.
Why is this happening? It used to work.
Thank you!
My phone is an E4GT running stock 4.1.2 with Google Search v2.6.7.721924.arm. I'm not running Now.

Hi probably "cache file cleaner app" will fix your problem

Hello,
I am having the same problem And whatever you are saying is 100% correct.. It you searched any damn app from that Google Search bar, You could get that App in results.. Not just system apps!
I thought this could be because of some third party app so I booted my Note II into safe mode and checked.. But still does not show any apps.. SO I guess problem might me with the Search itself..
I am trying to get the core of the issue and would like some details about your phone like:
1. Do you use any optimizer or Cache cleaner? If yes, How regularly do you use it? ( I use one called Clean master and I clean the cache once in about 15 days)
2. How many app are there on your mobile approximately? (I have about 240)
Otherwise our phone is in identical state.. Also if you have already found the solution, please lemme know.
Cheers
EDIT:
Never Mind I found the solution and it works for me at least. Go to settings and then Applications.. GO to Google Search (The one with the blue icon) and select it.. Force stop the app and then clear data... Restart the app and VOLLA it is showint the apps too :victory: :victory:
If I helped, dont forget to say thanks
Cheers
