I cannot install Google Apps for some reason. I tried clean installs, fresh wiped caches and data, and flashed from CWM/Recovery. Did not work.
What do I do now? I have Mac OS X and I have adb and fastboot.

You can download it from ROM manager.

I did that as well and I clicked install and it went to CWM Recovery and it didn't work. Have restarted way more than 2 times.

is there any other way to flash it besides rom manager/cwm recovery?
Not that I'm aware of.

@acmys, I think you might be expecting the Gapps installation to also include all the Google apps. Gapps only gets you the Market app and the automated Google Apps installer that pops up during the initial boot (that is why the Gapps file is only 5 MB - it doesn't have much in it other than the Market and the initial welcome stuff). You still have to manually download gmail, maps, voice, etc. either during that initial boot or you can do it later when you're on wi-fi. So if you've already got the Market app, then you are good to go. If I misunderstood you and you're not even getting the Market app, then disregard everything I just said.
Yup no market
Is there anyplace I can download an APK of market? for inspire?

You're welcome to try this one. It's not the apk but a flashable zip for CWM.

I'm really sorry if this is a repost but I searched for a while and never found a solution.
When I fix permissions in rom manager it hangs around 100. Tried 3 or 4 different ics rooms now and all do the same thing.

Seeing as how you've pretty much eliminated it being a specific ROM. I would try uninstalling rom manager. Reinstall. Then flash touch CWM again. idk that's what I would try.
Flashed cwm and reinstalled rom manager still hung up

Have you tried installing busy box (stephen erickson) app from the Play Store? It's worked on the Sky ICS ROM based off the latest leak.

Agreed you need to make sure busy box is installed
Sent from my SGS2 LTE
Sometimes roms already come with busybox installed. However, they need to be updated/reinstalled in order for fix permissions to work. Usually that does the job. If not, try reflashing the rom and make sure you follow the dev's instructions thoroughly.
If your rom comes with busybox. Go to your apps, there should be a busybox installer app in there. Click on it and click install

Thanks all. It solved my issue here too.
So here is what I found by trying to stop battery drain caused by the media storage+heating etc. I Of course can't guarantee this working for everybody but I tried this with 2-different JellyBean ROM's twice and it worked all 4 times on my device :victory:
This will have a few Reboots so bare with me. (because I believe reboots make a difference)
For all of you who have a JellyBean ROM already installed and have the battery drain skip to Step.8
1. Download your JellyBean ROM of choice
2. Place on SD card
3. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP of your current ROM
4. Wipe data, cache and dalvik cache
5. Select ROM of choice from the SD card (Most ROM's these days come with an Aroma-Installer so remember what you picked to be installed and what not.)
6. Boot device
7. Set up the phone and let it restore all apps. Set everything you will use (facebook, e-mail, flipboard etc) -then ReBoot
8. I used TitaniumBackup and removed "Media Storage" and I also removed "Downloads 4.1.1"
9. ReBoot into Recovery & wipe cache and dalvik cache
10.Dirty-Flash your ROM of choice which you chose @ Step.5 and chose the same features if possible.
11.Install your prefered Kernel optional (I personally chose Ktoosez 3.0.49 just because it gave me good battery life)
12.Wipe cache and dalvik the last time and also fix permissions.
13.ReBoot the last time and enjoy!
Hope this was helpful and will work for most of you early JellyBean users. :fingers-crossed:

So if I'm understanding right removing them after setup then restoring them by fifty flash fixes the issue they cause

Of-course not. Why would anyone mind some extra help for people who are more visual.
I just hope it works for everyone and on JellyWiz.
Please hit me up with some replies if it worked for you as well. Since as I said I din't have testers and I only tried it on 2-different ROM's on one device. Hope I'm not just lucky or something!

I don't get why every phone acts a little different from another. The best I could do is make a backup of mine and share it.

Are you all letting the media storage run for a few hours before trying this? Mine ran for like 2 hours on the charger with power save on, then it started deepsleep and has been fine sense.
The reason. I believe, it makes clips for all your videos that play in thumbnail view in the gallery, and indexes and thumbnail all your pictures. It's normal

When you installed CR 4.0 what items did you select? I think it may have to do with what apps are installed more then anything else.
Basically, install the bare minimum and see if you still have problems. Maybe it is something is getting installed in your process that is causing the problem.
I would leave off "adfree" for sure as well as anything else that effects media.
Launcher: only install one launcher(TW. If you want to add apex or Nova do it from the market after. I am using Nova but from the market.
Samsung Apps: left them all off.
You can always add on after you fix the issue.

Hi I upgraded from CM 9.1.1 stable to 10.0.0 this morning.
I downloaded CM 10 from get.cm and installed it through ROM manager by SD caard option.
But after that I could not find gtalk available so I tried opening Google Play which is getting exited.
I tried re-installing Google play app, degraded it too, even flashed the CM10 ROM again.
Is it an issue of not installing Gapps latest version?
