Market apps nor showing up as installed.

I'm running CM7 and all my apps are only listed as free and purchased. They all work fine and are in app drawer but im not getting update notifications because the market thinks they are not installed. I have went to settings>manage apps>market and the only option is to uninstall updates, cache and data are greyed out.
I have tried downloading them again and they will download and install then show as installed but within a few hours revert back to saying free or purchased. Anybody else have this happen or know of a fix?

Sounds like an auto restore problem...... try uninstalling all of them and then reinstall..... plus go into privacy and turn of the back up my data with Google option and see if that works

Tried that and still no luck. Gonna try wiping and reflashing.

Certain apps missing in play store (cm9?)

OK so, ever since I upgraded to CM9 months ago, I have found that certain apps are not available to me from the play store. For example, when I type in Youtube, it doesn't even show up as a option to download. When I go to the play store on my desktop, it either says that the app is not compatible with my device, or my device is greyed out in the drop down menu. This is true for several other apps that I have tried downloading. I tried clearing the play store data, but I'm still limited in the apps that show up upon searching. I was able to find a youtube apk elsewhere, but am wondering what the fix is for this cause there are other apps that I want...like zen bound. I just upgraded to alpha 6...same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have put up with this issue for long enough.

I haven't had that issue and am on cm9 and was also on aokp. Which cm9 did you download and from where?

CM9 was from here. It may have nothing to do with CM9, I just can't figure out why so many apps either don't show up at all upon search (e.g., zen bound 2), or they show up in the store, but say that they are not compatible with my device. I though it might be a screen density thing, but when I upgraded to alpha 6, the screen density went back to 240 and the play store is still missing apps like youtube.

Try clearing all data for the play store and then reflashing gapps...?

That did it! Thanks button has been pushed.

Clearing play store data then re flashing gapps did the trick (i.e., zen bound 2 and youtube apps were showing up in play store). However, I woke up this morning and the play store is doing the same thing as before (missing certain apps). For example, I type in "zen bound 2" and get a white screen with the "No results found". I tried the same technique again (as suggested by shultz) and this time it doesn't work. So I'm back to the same problem. Any ideas on what the culprit is here? should I be posting this in the CM9 thread?

yes, I live at 190, but went back to 240 just in case that was the problem (is there a better setting i can try?). I let rom toolbox reset my phone after and i still couldn't get zen bound 2. By the way the above trick (clearing play store data and flashing gapps) briefly worked and i was able to download zen bound 2, but by the time the game was finished downloading, the play store stopped working correctly again....and so I have zen bound 2 purchased, but it won't let me install it cause it says my device is not compatible. This is aggravating.

How do I correct gapps?

I am getting this message; "Unfortunately, the process. com. google.process.gapps. has stopped.
I am running rooted stock and downloaded an update of jet flicks when it occurred. Play store will flash on screen then shut down. I wiped cache and data and same thing.
Suggestions appreciated.

So here is how I fixed it.
Settings> Applications Manager> All> locate Download Manager (at the bottom)and enable.
No idea how it got disabled unless it was ripped by the last application I downloaded.

be careful getting apps from sites especially if it is something that is free that otherwise costs money on the market the new thing is to embed malware in to a legit package [it runs what it should like the game it says it is] it just happens to have malware embedded with the game.
This would make sense as it would want to try to stop you from installing AV software and it may not be able to stop the market [they have been adding AV stuff and other security slowly] so it stops you where it can.
Now not to say some other issue happened that caused this but it is VERY odd that right after you install an app you are supposed to pay for, but got for free and all of a sudden your device just doesn't allow software installs.

The thing is though it won't install ANYTHING I get outside of the Play Store. If I wanted GameGuardian, it wouldn't let me install it even though I had it before with the same ROM and everything. The only fix I found was to completely reinstall the ROM, and I don't want to reinstall all the apps again.

Do you have any apps running in the background? I remember on my amaze having screen filter on didnt let me click install either.

I didn't see any apps that would stop the apps from installing

I didn't see any apps that would prevent me from installing the third party apps.

Thats what I'm trying to avoid because I don't want to reinstall all the apps again.

Google now no longer does the following:

So for a little while now I've noticed Google now is no longer doing the things it use to:
1. It use to notify me how many minutes home is from my current location. It no longer does.
2. It use to notify me how many minutes an appointment was and when I should leave to be on time. It no longer does
3. Listen to/play <song title> use to play music on my device or YouTube. This no longer works.
Anybody know why these stopped working?
I'm on stock (Rogers ) ROM with all apps up to date.

Just an idea, maybe you did this but if not its worth a try. Go into settings/application manager/google and hit force stop. Now clear cache, data, and defaults. Now hit uninstall updates, and when done re-install the updates and run app. This should give you a fresh start I believe and this could allow you to set all your options over and give you the origional operation you had before. Im not a pro so I cant guarentee this but it cant hurt, its not a dangerous operation anyway. Good luck!
