Hey,

But they aren't in my pull up menu and if I try to open or uninstall from market, the buttons don't work. I can't click on either open or uninstall...... need help!!!

I hate to 'me too' but I have the same problem. I'm trying to reinstall the Facebook App. I can't find it in my backups but the Market tells me I have, it so I can't install or uninstall it!!
Help me Obi One Kanobi!
What all of you have to do is wipe your ext's. Then re-download the apps.
To avoid this from happening in the future (let's say you switch roms) ...or whatever....
Set up the phone as you normally would (signing in and all that), go to settings > applications > manage applications > CHECK THE BOX THAT SAYS "UNKNOWN SOURCES". This way you're guaranteed to have ALL your apps. Paid and free.
Then and only then do you go to the marketplace > downloads and check your apps. They'll be there.
And if you do have to download any of the apps again, make sure you don't leave the the "download screen", because if you do you'll lose "record" of the apps you had downloaded and will have to re-download them again.

So after getting back up and running thanks to numerous members of this forum, I re-downloaded all my apps, and everythings good except for two of my most-used apps: Facebook and Pandora. My phone is telling me that both are installed, but they're nowhere to be found. The Market app has "OPEN" and "UNINSTALL" on the bottom of the page, but both are greyed out and I cannot select either choice. There are no folders on my SDCard for either app, and I can't uninstall them as they don't appear anywhere on my phone. Also, I can't install them because the market app is reading them on my phone. I'm in a bit of a pickle, as these are are both important apps to me. Anyone who could help would, as always, be owed a beer if they find themselves in NYC.
your gonna have to uninstall them using atrackdog or some app that uninstalls other applications. if that doesnt work, wipe your ext partition, and re download everything.
ALL my apps are stuck now...
Okay, I did what was suggested and wiped my partition, and now I have none of the apps installed on my phone, but when I go to the Market to re-download EVERYTHING, the Market app says everything is installed, and again, the buttons on the bottom to either OPEN or UNINSTALL are greyed out and i can't click either. So now, instead of only having two apps like this, ALL MY APPS are not on my phone, I can't download them, and can't uninstall them.
Any ideas?
Wipe from recovery. You didn't need to clear your partition, just remove the apk's for those two apps.

Clear your market cache to start, I think that will do the trick. If that doesn't help - wipe your phone and repartition sd again.
Good luck

Clear market cache, then fix permissions...Wipe then reflash if that doesn't fix it. Apps in /app-private also get screwed up when switching ROMs, that's why I pull them to /sdcard then reinstall them so they reside in /app.
i have apps2sd enable. i installed an app from the market and then i uninstalled ith through linda's app manager. when i rebooted my phone and went back into the market to try to install the app again, i have no option to download it all.

Use any option it gives you to uninstall the app, then reinstall it.
Similar issue.
I am having a similar issue.
I installed Toggle Settings (Donut) on my G1 (CM 4.2.5 I'm not using apps2SD) and then decided to uninstall it. Now when I go to the market and my downloads it shows that I have Toggle settings installed. The problem is that I don't and it gives me no options to do anything (open and uninstall are grayed out). Other apps install and uninstall normally with the market updating their status correctly. I don't know what to do to correct this. If you know how to remedy this, please help me.
I apologize if this is an inappropriate place to post this but I serched and this was the closest topic to my problem that I found.
Try finding it in the app-private folder or if its in any of yours apps as a .zip file. If so, back it up and delete it from the phone. see if that resolves the issue. if not try deleting the market cache

Thanks for replying... It's not in any of my other apps and I've tried deleting the market cache (and deleting the market cache and power cycling the phone) and that isn't working. Where is (or should be) the app-private folder? I'm not finding that folder.
I'm starting to feel like my only hope is an update being put out for the app and then hopefully I can download that and go from there.

app-private should be in the same folder as app
Had a similar problem
I wiped my phone and did a frech Cyan 4.2.5 install to help clear a problem with Gmail. I used backup for root users to get all my apps back, but it left a couple out - leaving me in the same situation you guys are in - can't install/uninstall from the market as the buttons are greyed out, but it's not actually on your phone.
i eventually stumbled over a solution of sorts when i reverted back to a themeless 4.2.5 - for me flashing the update again sorted out my market data and allowed me to install the missing apps again. either that, or go into a nandroided backup, extract the apks and manually push them to your current setup - buttons are magically no longer greyed out.
Thanks guys.
Thanks for your guys assistance.
I found another solution that worked. I had one of my coworkers download Astro File browser and then the Toggle settings app. I just backed up his toggle settings with the built in apps manager in Astro and then put his memory card in my phone and restored toggle settings with Astro. Then I went to the market and uninstalled toggle settings through the market and bingo no more ghost of Toggle settings problem. Thanks again for your assistance.
Hey guys, i'm using cyan latest rom and found out that my maps are not pointing to the correct position. I compare with my friend's iphone and his is the correct position.
Anyone has any idea?
GPS on?

Yeah, gps is on! Thats why! Any idea?
You might try to uninstall and reinstall it again.
Or look for it in the market and make sure you have the latest version.
Create a nandroid backup if necessary if the above steps don't work and try the maps app on another Rom.
Its really a process of elimination.
How do I uninstall Maps in my phone? I'm using the latest cyan rom.
Standard way:
1. From the home screen, press Menu, then choose Settings.
2. Select Applications.
3. Select Manage Applications.
4. Scroll through the list of applications and choose Google Maps.
5. Select Uninstall and confirm the application's removal.
If the above does not work (took it off another android site, not my words obviously):
if it doesnt work for you and your phone blows up or turns in to a killer robot, what can I say... oh well, do this at your own risk!
first, I went in to root explorer. I went in to the system file then I went in to the app file. now this is a area that should rarely be messed with. this is were gmail, camera and the browser are hidden. find a app called something like, google.maps.apk once you have found this app, delete it. to make sure you got the right one, go to google maps and try to open it. it should say this app is no longer on the phone yada yada. at this point if you try and download the google map update it will say "this update is not valid" and fail to install. restart your phone, go back to the market and download the maps. it should work. it did for me. could have been a fluke, i don't know. but I tried a 100 different ways to get the update and this is the only thing that worked for me.
Also, search is helpful as well.
Use it please..
Tried already but still not working well. Sigh.
I don't think that the problem is with your maps to be honest but rather with your GPS. Try clearing all the settings/caches from maps, streetview and anything else that uses GPS (weather widgets, shopsavy, etc,). Then, from recovery wipe your dalvik-cache and your rotate settings. See if that helps, if not then you may need to re-install your maps.
Also, make a nandroid backup, complete wipe and install different rom (I recommend SuperD) just to rule that out. If it still doesn't work, then you have a hardware problem.
Can I check with you regarding the wiping of dalvik-cache? If I go to the recovery and do a wipe of the dalvik-cache, will it cause any issues to my current configuration?
Anyone can follow up on this?

Dalvik gets rebuilt on reboot, it will not affect any settings. You're golden.
Hi,
I have used myback to restore all my apps from my previous kang-o-rama ROM to my current Leofroyo ROM.
any application that has been restored, does not show in the market's "Downloads" list, so therefore i wont be able to update them.
Also, when i try to find the apps in the market, it says that they are not installed (even though they are)
once i re-download and install them from the market, then they appear in the "downloads" list.
however i have too many programs to do this, is there a way around this??
I had this problem whenever I wipe and restore using Titanium pro. What i got around that is to install any free app, reboot the phone and all the market link magically show up.
All you have to do when changing ROMs once your applications are restored, is to just go to settings> applications> manage applications> touch the "ALL" tab, find the market and clear cache and data.

THANK YOU!
all of the apps show in the list now
1 ques, do you know any backup/restore app that will restore all the apps at once without the need to install each app separately?

Titanium Pro + donation for batch restore of app + data.
I recently installed Darky v9.5 and I love it. However, there is one very annoying little thing.
The "system apps" installed by the ROM, like Titanium Backup and a few other aren't "registered" in the market. That is, Market doesn't pick up that I already have it installed.
Was just wondering if there is some association that I can create so that Market will recognize it and update it natively.

If you are having the same issue I had (with most newer roms), you go into "Manage Applications", go to "All", find Market, and clear data. The next time you go into the market, it will rebuild (correctly) your app list in MyApps.
