I am not rooted and whenever i download an app from play store it force closes before it can install. This is regardless of app size, or wifi/mobile data. I am familiar with how to do stuff root wise so i am no noob. I can't root this phone. Downloading the app from the play site doesn't work either. Any ideas?

Try reflash Gapps. I had the same problem. This can help.
Not rooted, so fully stock locked? Try cleaning app data for play store.

I am trying to buy an app from the market, but it tells me there is an error. I cleared cache, wiped app data, checked my cc info from my computer. I can buy stuff via my pc, but not my phone. Thoughts? Suggestions?

I Have no options to downgrade or remove updates. I can disable and reenable it, Which makes me accept terms and conditions again but still gives me an error code when trying to buy something

you might want to grab an older version of the market app from somewhere, there are plenty of Gapps packages available on the internet.
It's what worked for me when i couldn't install anything from the market. Restore an old backup, and re-upgrade. That fixed it.
The way I did it was through clearing the cache in settings and uninstalling updates. It worked for me after that.

Went into script manager and tried to uninstall, it wouldn't let me. It asked what I wanted to do with the file, and gave options, one is them being install, so installed vender and phonsky again. Went into apps, play was twice is normal size, had the option to uninstall updates, I did so, and cleared cache. Nothing but an error.

it would be good if you post wich error Google Play tell you, then if someone already fixed that can help you.
I've got a problem with google play, it doesn't install anymore any app, free or shareware, so i removed market and installed an older .apk found on the web, from then on, also after the re-update it started again to work. Also if your phone is rooted you can avoid the automatic update.
I hope this could be useful
Sooooo using rom toolbox, I uninstalled play. I grabbed a very old school market, it worked, but it didn't want to update to play. I junked that, I grabbed inverted market (black and blue) and still the same issue.

I download plenty of beta version apps and homebrew apps (not from market). Is there a way to update these without losing app data by uninstalling and reinstalling the new version. I don't want to lose the app data.
Thanks

Just install the new versions over the old ones. (App will be updated without data loss)
It doesn't let me do that. It tells me the previous version must be uninstalled before installing the new one.

In that case, use an app such as Titanium Backup to backup your data, then uninstall the old app and install the new one. After that, restore the data.
Do I need to root my phone to use that app?

Yes, the device would need root access.
first open playstore and look for the new version of the app

it doesnt let me update , it forces me to uninstall making me lose data.
As stated the only way to do it is do back up the data with titanium back up. Uninstall the app, install new one and then restore the settings.
Also be careful about getting apks from places other then the official app stores or here

Is rooting safe?

As safe as installing apps you get outside of the play store. Safer even. Just do your research

Every time I let YouTube update I get an error when I try to use it. If I go to the app data and uninstall the update it works fine. Any way to permanently not install the update or find a version that works on my 10.1?

I was looking for GooManager in my app drawer and could find it. So I decided to go to the Play Store and see if its installed. When I clicked on the app, there wasn't an "open" or "uninstall" option. It showed it was installed in my app settings but I still couldn't launch it. I uninstalled it using Titanium Backup and now when I try to install the app I get this error " Incompatible update". How do I fix this?

Try rebooting then go back into play store and try downloading again. I had the same issue, and just like you had uninstalled via titanium backup. Seems to be an issue with some custom ROMs that have Goomananger preinstalled.

I cannot open Google play store! Every app I have installed has internet access but when I open Google Play Store it says: No connection . Retry.
No matter how many times I try and retry I can't access Google play store. I don't know why this happens because I have faced this problem in stock ROM rooted. I'm now running Slimbean 4.3 v2.2 and everything has been working perfectly for more that a month, until now. I don't know how to fix this. Any opinion would be helpful. Thanks.

Or a better idea...... Flash your existing app and gapps without wiping anything
