Apps on SD card gone from downloads list. - Desire General

Ive just noticed that any app that i transfer to SD using the stock un-modified un rooted Desire no longer appear in my markets downloads list? So i dont see if theres any updates, itens like barcode scanner, pingchat, rockplayer, papertoss & movies (flixster) are all installed via the market, but since i transfered them to my SD card they dont appear on my downloads list in the market?
Is this standard for everyone? If i search for the app in the market it appears and also has installed in the status but is not on my downloads, so when theres an update its not there.
On that note also i have ticked the auto update box for every app but none have ever updated, theres been a few apps with updates in the downloads section of my market that are ticked to auto update but they just stay there with the orange update status?
Any help?
Thanks.

I had the same problem. I managed to fix it; here is what I did.
I cleared the cache and data for market app and restarted it.
Searched in market for each app that I had installed and tick the auto-update box again. Gave the phone a reboot and when I checked after a while the apps were back in downloads.

Backing up apps: Do they update?

I used Astro File Manager to back up my apps when I re-flashed to a generic ROM.
I used it to put all my apps back. Here's my problem. They are now not showing as installed in the Market app. Seeing as they were not installed from the Market I'm worried that I'll miss out on updates when they become available unless I manually check. Not all apps make the version number easy to find.
Anyone had any issues after a backup/restore?
Any apps not registered in the market will not update auto, what happens generally after a hard reset is when you sign in, go to downloads in the market app, and all your downloaded apps from previous to the hard reset will be there, then just install en mass.

[Q] How did I screw up my Market?

I cannot download anything from Market, either new or updates - just stays on 'Starting Download'. No problem with connection or browsing Market. On stock 2.51 ROM. I removed the following apps (but don't see how they would affect the Market)
AmazonMP3
GoogleTalkService
GoogleTalkStorage
ESMusica

Are you downloading using wifi , new owners are told to do the initial market setup first download using 3G, and then wifi download should work ok, also make sure your using @gmail.com and not @googlemail.com for your email address.
Also i have heard that clearing the market cache in the built in android task manger can help if the above does not work.

Removing the ones I highlighted was your mistake. Never remove core Google apps.
@ccav2000
Thanks. Found and reinstalled the 2 apk's and all back to normal.
I had backed up with Titanium, but for some reason it only (seemed) backed up the data not the app. I can't work out how to back up the apk.

Hi, I also did the same mistake and now I cannot download or update anything on the market, could you tell me where to download the 2 apk's?
Everytime I start a download it says 'downloading' for a few seconds and then says 'download paused' and remains there.
This issue is on wifi only, and happened out of the blue yesterday. On my 3g data connection the apps download just fine.
I tried a lot of methods like clearing cache and all but nothing worked.
What can I do?
1. Goto Settings -> Application -> Managed application
Set filter: All (default is Downloaded)
Select Download Manager and Clear data
2.Disable (uncheck) Settings -> Data manager -> Data saver
3. Logout and login Google Talk
I did all that but it still didn't work

Maybe ur settings are set where it disconnects wifi when the light go off... try changing battery profile to performance... in the battery manager...

wow setting the battery to performance mode worked! thanks a lot!
strange though, my battery had always been on battery saver mode and apps used to download, i wonder what happened
the apps did not download even when the wifi was still connected, it said 'download paused' after a few seconds itself
Market downloads paused again on wifi since yesterday! What is happening?!

[Q] market issues

My market is not showing my apps its go to a white screen and said (your apps that you downloaded will be here)
I've deleted the market updates ,I also logged out of my Gmail account to see if that would fix but no it doesn't
Anyone know what I should do?
Two things
1st - Clear the data and cache from the market app in settings.
2nd - If that doesn't work, search for the market .apk file on here, drop it on your phones, untick "unknown sources" option and reinstall it.
Good luck
I tried that and still nothing this is BS

Can't Uninstall Apps from Play Store (and more frequent app update/install failures)

Hi there,
Recently I saw that I cannot uninstall apps from the Google Play store. Usually when viewing an app that is installed on my device, there are options for "open" or "uninstall".
The "uninstall" option is not present right now. I noticed this only a day ago (relative to the post date of this post)
The only major changes I know I have made to my device are that I moved a few apps to the "2nd partition" of the SD card via Link2SD, and I put a large amount of videos on the main partition of my SD card (though I don't know why this would affect Google Play not being able to uninstall stuff)
I have a rooted Tab S running stock (no custom ROMs), and I am running Lollipop and have disabled OTA updates
Any ideas?
I am in the same boat RE missing the uninstall option in Google Play Store. I even did a clean re-install of the ROM (IronRom 2.5) I'm using, with no success.
Hopefully the option reappears again soon. It's a pain to have to uninstall via settings.
EDIT: Also having the same issue on my old Motorola Xoom tablet that my daughter is now using - running OmniRom 4.4.4.
Have you done anything like moving apps using Link2SD or anything?
I think this could be a cause for this problem...
I recently uninstalled Link2SD from my device and since then the Uninstall option has come back in Google Play
