I have the latest cyan but ever since I got the 4th prior update for cyan anything I try and download on the market just stays and say "starting download" and I even did fix permissions and also I clean the cache in the market! What do I do? I want to update my apps
Try a full wipe, and then starting clean, I know it's a pain, but that's what I always do when I get problems, most of the time it fixes it.
you can also go to apps and find market and uninstall updates, that worked for me
Open Google Talk. It will take a couple of seconds to sign in. Downloads will then work.
The market uses something in Google Talk to start the downloads or something... I don't ask questions, I just know it works.
google talk wont even open! wtf lol, and i want a wipe to be the last resort! anything but starting all over again AGAIN lol
erm.....wrong section?
sorry, but does anyone know how to fix this problem?
The problem is you need to be signed in to google talk to be able to download from the market. If it won't even open you're gonna need to reflash.
The same issue
I am experiencing the same issue (permanent "Starting download...") with Market.
Now I am signed in to GoogleTalk but it does not fix the issue.
Any ideas?
I have got: US T-mobile 1.5 CRC1.
have you tried going to settings>applications>manage applications>market then clicking "uninstall updates"?
somebody else mentioned it here, but nobody else ever gave any feedback. i had a similar issue to this and uninstalling the market updates fixed it. when you're on your market homepage, is there a "T-Mobile" button?
I post this thread because out seems no has yet to acknowledge this problem with the market.it seem in the market display paid app icon doesn't display neither dose the paid apps.

1) You have posted in the wrong forum.
2) Market works fine in 2.2 unless you flashed one of the pre-release builds.
The sticky at the top of the N1 gen forum tells you in bold NOT TO ASK QUESTIONS.
Ask them in the Q/A section. Gen section is for news, tips only...

I'm having the same, or very similar problems. Basically, I'm seeing paid apps, and my purchases, but I'm not seeing the "Top Paid" tab, nor is the Market acting in any sane or rational way. For example, I install an app, and the notification bar will say downloading, then installing, then the notification that it installed. In the Market download window, though, I see it download, then switch to installing, but never get beyond that.
What started all this with me was this. Using Linda File Manager, I uninstalled a couple of apps (was trying out the feature since I was in there). In this case, it was Google Earth (don't really use it), and a Pirate game that I never grocked. Anyway, in the Market they wouldn't leave my list in the Downloads, so I wiped the cache and data in the Market app in Settings > Applications > Manage Applications.
After that, all my apps appeared as uninstalled in the downloads window, and the issue with installation started. First thing I did was try and reinstall all the apps, and ended up with a huge list of apps that were installed, but were marked as still installing by the market. Killing the market app cleared out the hung install progress bars. The other thing that started happening was that not all of my installed apps appeared in my download list. KO Boxing, for example was on the featured list as upgradable, but it wasn't in my download list to upgrade.
Ultimately, what I decided to do was wipe the phone and see what happened. After wipe, I logged in and FRF91 didn't restore my apps like it had in the past. In fact, the market was exactly the same as it was before the wipe, with all my apps showing as free or purchased. Installing issue was also the same. Now, I know that Google backs up the settings, so I thought maybe that had something to do with it. I wiped again, but in the configuration process post-wipe, I selected for Google to not restore from backup (hit menu in the setup when you are entering your username/password). This brought me through the process much quicker, but with no change in the market function.
So, I'm still without a "Top Paid" tab, nor with a all together sane Download window. It's frustrating the heck out of me, and I'm about to go back to whatever the 2.1-r1 release was (ERE27?) and see if that makes any different.
The ROM I'm running is the FRF91 full release from lox_dev:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715799
If T-Mobile is doing the OTA's to FroYo from 2.1-r1, then maybe I'll let it do it's own thing today and then see if that fixes it. Ugh.

The above snipped sections are my story too.
Updated last week manually from ERE27 to FRF85b to FRF91 using the official stock clients each time. Non rooted N1. I spent 6 hours on Friday night trying to sort this..
I've got posts up on the Google Nexus One forums also and am holding where I am for a definitive fix. It's very frustrating though..
Go to menu>applications> magage applications> all apps> market then force quit and clear data and whatever else is in there.

I tried that on Friday night. Once I'd done that, none of my installed apps showed in the Downloads section.
That's why I did a full wipe and set the phone back up. Luckily I was still able to find all my apps, including the purchased ones. However the missing 'Top Paid' button and slow market performance persisted.
So, for fun, I pushed back to ERE27 (2.1-r1) and same issue. No "Top Paid" in the Market, and issues with installation. This is complete wipe, nothing installed on the phone after imaging.
I let it upgrade to FRF91, which didn't change anything. I'm now pretty convinced that whatever this is is completely account related on the Google server side of things, and it needs to be sorted out by them
Guess I'll have to figure out who to contact for support from Google :/

I'm working the Google angle also plus have posts on several forums and watches on more.
Please can you keep this thread updated with your progress and I'll do the same.

I've made contact with Google via email and this is now being investigated.
I'm sending them a summary of the problems I've been having and pointing them at various threads both here and in the Market so that they can see how widespread this problem is.
I've also tried a full hard reset and cache wipe without luck. My belief is that this is something that Google need to sort server-side, so I'm done with my wiping and reinstalling for now...

Looks like this has now been fixed server-side.
I got my 'Top Paid' tab back this morning - Yay!
So I had a few apps get the infinite Installing Android Market bug thanks to a wireless router dying at a bad time. The only thing that worked short of doing a factory reset was to uninstall the market update.
So my question is how do I get the Market update to reinstall?
Thanks
(Not rooted, stock ROM)
Uninstall application, then reinstall. Just a hunch.

Were it only so simple. The 2.2 market enchancements were a silent upgrade, so there's no market link. And beyond that, the Market no long appears up on the manage Applications list in the system settings.
I've been having the same issues as well, very frustrating! I've been searching here and good ol' google on how to get that update back...to no avail yet.
Did you ever get any success?
Pulled this. See if it works for you.
Thanks
Trying to side load it now, but I can't seem to get droid explorer to work. sigh.....
It connects to the phone fine, but then when I go to install the package, it gives me a new window that wants to install something. I don't really remember that window coming up in the past, but to be honest it's been quite awhile since I've used droidexplorer... So I click isntall, and the program immediately crashes.
So, I put the file on my web server, and downloaded it from there. (Got some annoying lovely messages about the phone being out of space until I cleared the browser download list....) It downloaded fine, but when I go to install it, I get "Parse Error There is a problem parsing the package."
On an odd hunch, I started poking around the file structure in DroidExplorer, and was able to pull my own MarketUpdater.apk out and save it to the computer. So I threw that on the webserver, and was able to download it fine, AND re-install it. No idea if that will actually DO anything, but hey, figured it was worth a shot.
So now that I've waited 15 minutes after reinstalling the marketupdater.apk, (big surprise) nothing's changed.
EDIT:
Went to grab a sandwich for lunch, and decided to pop into the ATT store since it was right next to where I was eating. Asked one of the reps that I have a pretty good relationship with about the issue, and he said a customer came in not too long ago with the same issue, and the only resolution was a system wipe. Hopefully we can get around it...Of course, if not, and I do have to do a wipe, I'll just upgrade to 2.2....
Im on the leaked factory froyo, havent had any problems with swype in the months ive been on froyo. Installed "shootme" screen grab app, used it once, then moments later started getting the 3 vibrate error. Tried to open market to uninstall but the phone froze then shutdown. On reboot, phone was slow and continuously gave me 3 vibrate error. Switched to samsung keyboard because the buttons to the left and right of swype spacebar were blank, the error stopped and phone functions correctly on samsung keyboard. Uninstalled shootme, rebooted, tried to use swype, got the same error.. i feel naked without my swype...

I've been running Shoot Me and Swype with no problems. Have you installed the latest Swype beta? The previous versions expired. The new release comes with an installer that will keep it updated. If you haven't already, try doing it that way. You have to sign up with Swype to get the new beta.
beta.swype.com
Awesome, thanks for the help. One question, the website says "If your phone came pre-installed with Swype
DO NOT download this beta (it won't work)"
Am i missing something, or should i just do it?

Scratch that, swype is back up and running quicker than ever! Kreepyken, consider yourself my hero for the next few hours at least!

And now it has decided to give me the error again... serendipity time i suppose...
If you want to replace your Swype, you must first do the instructions from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12042627&postcount=5. Then sign up for the beta Swype (it's free) and follow the instructions there. Or like you said, just install a new Rom.
Well I went to the swype website last night, followed the directions, and got it working. That only lasted a few hours though before it reverted right back to giving me the same error. Something about a process "inputmethod". I wish I had the patience to try to rectify the problem in case somebody else has the same issue, however I decided it was just time for an upgrade
I'm having an issue where NO apps are being shown for my primary account in the My Apps part of the Market. Not even paid apps. If I search for them, they show up as installed/purchased, but nothing shows in My Apps.
I've tried the usual clear data/clear cache and reboot, and the download a free app and restart. I've also even wiped and returned to stock -- no dice. Has anyone else experienced this bizarre issue before?
I am having that issue to?

Clear data/cache, reboot.
I experienced this same thing and finally realized that you can switch accounts on the market and for some reason it decided to start defaulting to another of my google accounts that I have connected to this device (but not set as the primary). This actually has persisted and I have been too lazy to look into it, I just open up market and change it to my primary account every few days to get updates....however, I have noticed that I accidentally downloaded some apps into one of the other accounts which means I have to be on that one to update it unless I uninstall and reinstall under the correct one.

Yeah, as I said in my OP I've already done the data/cache and reboot.
And yeah, I know about the accounts thing...weirdly, a few apps show for my other two accounts, but nothing at all whatsoever for my primary account which should have 100+ apps.
I can't seem to find anyone else having this problem. Weirdly again, even if I download an app using my primary account, it still shows nothing in My Apps for it.
I've got the same problem going to try removing account to resyce right now.

Ya, I have that retarded prob too. I even updated market from aptoide. I'm on 5.5.893. Gonna update to 5.7.893 pretty soon, see if that fixes it. In the meantime try appbrain for updates.

Same issue here - still no solution.
Looks like google is aware:
Applications missing from "My Apps"
We're aware of reports from some users that several applications are missing under "My Apps" on their devices, and we're currently looking into the issue.
Having this issue? Reported.

Not really bizarre, just a bug. I posted onseveral forums about this. This is a androud market place bug. You can find it posted over on Google.com in their support forums for android marketplace. Was posted originally posted on 9/13 I believe, with no fix yet. Its not limited to Bionic, virtually all new phones now see it. They have tried 2 marhetplace updates so far with no fix.
Some people report no problems ...but most posters report some kind of issue. For me, all purchased apps are visible, as are all preinstalled apps. No free apps show up.
Check out the threads over there. The fantastic Google support will dazzle you.
weird!! Hope you find a solution
Have same problem already posted on the fourm

The only solution I found was to wipe data, then re-add my Google accounts but I made a different account my primary. It doesn't matter which is primary anymore since the Market now allows you to select.

As I mentioned earlier, Google mentions this as an issue with marketplace. It was reported on 9/13 on the Google site. I 'assumed ' it was all phones.
Earlier today I setup my LG G2x andHTC G2. Both restored all apps, including paid and free apps. I FR my Bionic, and free apps were not setup. Paid apps were displayed but not installed.
Clear cache and reboot does not resolve this.
So, either something is going on with the market, and/or the Bionic.
Got the same issue.
Temporary solution - restore from TB. Works for a while then it reverts back to "no show"
Did anyone try the new marker version 3.3.12 to resolve this?
