I had to change the user on the phone without resetting it.
So I added another google account and ended up with 2 accounts. Then removed the old account. Some of the apps got uninstalled and some of the data in other apps dissapeared, which is ok.
Phone works fine. Everything functions but there's one problem.
If I open "installed apps" in GooglePlay I get nothing. No apps installed. I can install a new app and it'll show up there. but all the basic stuff is gone. So Maps, Gmail, Chrome etc are not showing up there. So obviously they won't get updated ever. I understand that I can uninstall and reinstall them and they'll appear, but
Is there a way to link all the existing apps on the phone to the Play Store so they can get updates?
The phone is rooted.

Clear Play store / services : data/cache/dalvik and you shoule be fine again.
I forgot to mention - I tried to clear data on google play services, play store and google services framework yesterday.
After a reboot opened playStore and it asked to accept the terms and still didn't show anything.

Today Google + and Google Play app downloads have stopped working right. It will no longer sign into G+, I get a warning that it can't communicate with the server. For the Play apps download issue, I can log into the the Play store and see my current apps and search for new ones but it won't download a new app through the phone or sending it from my online account on my PC. I've cleared the data for both apps, tried force stopping, restarting the phone, hard reset and still no luck. All other Google apps are working fine and the phone itself is working fine so I don't know why these two apps are giving me issues. I have a 100% stock NS4G. Any help would be great.
i had the same problem after the 4.1.2 update to rectify this i deleted my google account from my phone then rebooted it and added my google account back to the phone, after that i was able to download and update apps again, i don't use google+ but i would imagine the above procedure would sort that issue out as well
When I bought my Nexus 5 (Android 4.4) I had no problems with Google Play.
I could see the preinstalled system apps under "My Apps", it updated automatically... All O.K.
Then I updated to Android 4.4.2, unlocked bootloader, root and it still works fine.
A few days ago I decided to do a Hard Reset (Wipe Data/Factory Reset "Fastboot Mode").
When it was done, I decided to create another Google Account to buy apps, sync chrome, etc. because I use the other one as work email.
When I entered Google Play to see why preinstalled apps (Hangouts, Gmail, Play Music, etc.) wasn't updating automatically, in "My Apps", under "Installed" there's a loading wheel that never ends, and under "All" there's no app listed.
If I install an App, it appears on both lists (Installed and All), but the others don't.
When I search manually system apps, it says that it's installed and let me update, and after that, it appears on both lists.
I want to fix that: Apps not appearing in "My Apps" unless that I update those Apps, despite I have them installed in my Nexus 5.
Thank you, and sorry for my english

"All" apps shows only those installed under the presently signed-in account. To access the old account's apps, you need to add that account back onto your phone. Then you'll see that both accounts will be available in a drop-down in the Play Store.

delete play services from system, but first uninstall update if exist, reboot device, now go to settings then manage applications, delete cache for download manager,google play store and google service framework, open playstore, and then your mobile download automatically
I just set my Mother-in-law up with a new Nexus 5 updated to Lollipop. She had an existing gmail account that we used to sign in at the phone setup. However, when opening the Play Store, I notice that none of the preinstalled apps (Gmail, Calendar, etc) show up in My Apps. However, searching for these apps in the Play Store show they're installed and give the option to Update them. Do I really need to do this one by one for each app for an account that has never used Android? After updating an app, then it shows up in my apps, but it seems like a giant waste of time to have to sync them with my account.
That really doesn't seem right.. I'd try a simple factory reset first and see if it works then.
Actually confirmed this with another account too (never had signed into Android before). Guess maybe the easier thing to do might be do it through the web link to Play store.

I had the same issue. Took me a while to figure out that it's Chrome.
But since I used one account on this phone I didn't know about that problem until some magisk module f*d up my encryption keys and I could boot by phone, so I had to format in TWRP.
It gave me an error during Setup wizard, I managed to bypass it by deleting setup wizard but still my phone was useless.
My guess is that Google uses Chrome's WebView implementation for logging in.
In developer options you can't switch to default android WebView, option is grayed out, so unfortunately Chrome must be kept.

Did you try to log in in a different Google account after you removed those apps?
