Has anyone else experienced this? At times I will try to download and app from the market and it won't download?? I don't know exactly what that means but it happens only when I try to download apps???

i was wondering the same thing, it happens to me when i try to update my apps and thereafter i can't download the update or anything else.
Did you remove any apps that may remotely be connected to market/talk? There's no reason those would be FC unless something is missing. As a matter of fact... I don't think they ever FC on me in 2 years of owning Android phones.

I'm not sure the OP means FC. If he/she is talking about what I have experienced, which it sounds like, sometimes you select an app to DL from the market and it'll just sit there. Nothing in the notifications, but if you open the market and go back to the app there will be a download progress bar not, uh...making progress. It's just kinda solid grey with no animation.
In my case, I just canceled the download(s) in the market, and restarted my phone and they worked. Oddly, a full shutdown/turn back on didn't help! Only restart.
I haven't had any problems with GV (except for the wonkiness signing in with a Google Apps account). I'm interested to know what the OP's issue with GV is as well.

You are correct that is exactly what happens most of the time when I try to download apps from the market. The l only reason I mention google talk is because - and I heard someone else mention this on another post - if I simultaneously try to open google talk there is a message (unable to sign in) or something to that affect.
There has been a coupe times where if I just put my phone down and walk away or do other things
It eventually kicks back on and downloads the apps.
This has been my one and only problem so far. Other than this it runs better than any phone I have had.

My Fascinate is rooted properly
Since then, I've installed SetCPU and Titanium Backup from the market...
Shortly after, my phone stopped being able to Download Apps from the Market...
So I uninstalled both programs
The Market says "Currently Downloading" but the Taskbar never shows it happening, and the little download bar in the App spins for a while and just stops.
I even left a simple game downloading overnight to no avail
I also tried clearing all the caches- download manager, market, etc...
Help!
Try canceling your downloads, logging into Talk, then trying again? Or cancel downloads, reboot, log into google Talk, then open Market

I had the same problem. Clearing all the cache and data for market and google apps worked for me.Though a google search has revealed results may vary.

This happens to me and many many people ALL THE TIME. The worst part is that there is never one reason why this happens or one fix. You just have to be lucky. I AM GETTING SICK AND TIRED OF THIS HAPPENING TO ME AND EVERYONE ELSE. Hopefully when froyo comes or something it will not happen anymore.

@billypunk81 That is a quick google for an answer.
And in the future please use the general forum for any and all questions. Unless you are developing something don't start a thread here.
Also give this a read.
good day.
I had same issue and nothing helped. I froze 'Market' and 'Market Updater' from Titanuim then thawed both right away. Started working after that.
Check and make sure Background Data is on. Maybe it got turned off somehow.
Try removing the 2.2 Market if you have it installed. That's what did it for me.
I ran into this situation when I mistakingly restored the 2.2 Market after flashing jt's clean ROM. To solve this, I removed Vendor.apk and reflashed jt's clean ROM. That fixed things for me.
Out of no where, I can't download off the Market anymore. This is what happens when I try to download when clicking on Install, it displays the Downloading icon in the notification bar and disappears without any warning or error! When I look back on the Application page for example Angry Birds, it just shows the Install button like it wasn't even touched!
I power cycled many times, I tried a lot of the tricks off of Google like Gtalk fix and the uninstalling the marketupdates trick, still no go I'd hate to reset to factory again, specially after recoverying from the Wifi issue from the other post.
Your help is appreciated!
Did you try going into applications, click on market, and press clear data?

I think the market is down. Same issue here. Try with me nexus one and it wont download either.

Same here. Can't download anything.
I factory reset (which sucked royal balls) but I think I know what caused it now, it's that Fast Web Installer for AppBrain app. When I tried to re-install it, it said something about causing issues with new market update, and I remembered that I installed it successfully before the reset. So it might of conflicted and busted my market.
Let me know if that works for you, assuming you have this app.

Hmmm.. not for me, I just re-downloaded all my apps... now that you mention it, downloading 260 apps might have something to do with that :/

Interesting. I still can't. androidcentral mentioned it's down also.
I can't download any app either, and I just wasted 2 hours trying to fix it...I guess it's down!? I can see the apps, I click install, and then it says download unsuccessful, just like the OP said.

Ok first of all lt me start by saying I did search this, but couldn't find anything relating directly to my problem. So now I will ask here. A couple days ago I went into the market browsing apps. I didnt even install anything but I got the updates pending notification. So I go into the my apps screen and choose the update all method. Now I know this usually works kind of half way because I have some custom themed apps on my phone that won't update because I didn't install them through the market (I think). Anyway they all download fine but when the actual download completed they all just sort of paused and had that horizontal scrolling effect you see just before it starts the actual install, which I've gotten before just never with all of them at once. Anyway what I usually do is just cancel the download and start it up right there after the cancelling. This time I did it and it immediately force closed on me. And wouldnt even let me open the market at all w/o fc'ing. I've tried several different market apk's and only with the most recent update I found could I open the market at all. But even then it still force closes when I click an app to review it. Any ideas how I might troubleshoot this? Logs to look at or somethin? Help?
cd's or tapes?
Go to 'manage applications' and clear data/cache for both market and market update.
I couldn't find the market update apk for my rom. (Epic experience, rfs, froyo, btw..) but I did it for the market one and it had no effect.
cd's or tapes?
Try clearing data for 'download manager'

Still a no go. Do you think if I try a different google account?
cd's or tapes?
I'm out of ideas, the things I suggested have always worked for me, but I was not getting FC's. If I were you I'd wipe cache/dalvik and re-flash the ROM, you won't lose data.
Ok this happened to me a few roms ago. What worked for me was to open the google talk app, login to it, and that re synced my google account info with the market app. And then downloads would actually start downloading. I read this solution in a thread and forget the orig. poster or i would cite him. Hope it works for you.
Edit: after re reading your pos I think I might of jumped the gun on my reply. Maybe this won't work for you.

Has anyone else had the problem where you're browsing the market on your a500, click to download an app, and it simply doesn't download?
About 70% of the time (conservative estimate) the "taskbar" shows that an app is downloading, but the "My Apps" panel in the market doesn't show that download. If I leave it alone, the taskbar reports that the download completed, but I don't see the app anywhere. I also noticed that if I'm browsing the market on my PC and I send an app to be downloaded on my tablet, if the "My Apps" panel isn't open on the tablet, the app will not download.
I'm running the stock OTA 3.1 ROM.
I get that a lot. I am forced to hit back and then select install or download the app a 2nd time. Not sure why.
I have always had this same problem ,even after updates from the Market. I hate the Market. It turns into a major thing just trying to download anything. It's very frustrating and takes 10 minutes of trying, trying again, cussing, connection time outs. Its pretty bad when we have a Android device and its a Android market and they still can't get it right. Maybe it's a Honeycomb thing? Maybe they should call apple and get some advice?

common issue
Go into settings
Application
Manage applications
Browse to the market app
Clear app data.
This will sometimes fix that issue but only for a while
Worked for me
Good luck
I've had the same problem. Running Taboonay custom ROM version 2.0.
market
Same here have had that problem and so does wife. I get a kick out of wife she gets frustrated and impatient and swears at it.....lmao
So for a while there I was having the same issue. I went into clock work recovery and wipe dcache and battery stats and now all is well again. I would recommend that.

My issues seems to be that when I try to pull down an app, it tells me that it is unable to purchase. And suggestions?
I've had that a few times where I couldn't purchase an app. I found that purchasing through the online market works fine and auto-installs into the right device. It might have something to do with the lack of phone and IMEI number; could be wrong though.
Also, buying stuff with my phone then installing on my tablet works fine.
Go to settings applications Tonto market app then clear . Simple fix. Simple fix
Tried all this stuff still dont work
So i tried all this stuff and it still wont even download anymore it just FC when i click the my apps button FC this is really annoying. Went to market on pc it even says the app is installed on my device and it is soooooo not. Saw on another thread someone said Google was blacklisting users they know are rooted which i think is just dumb and dont believe, who cares what we do to the device we are still running android and want to purchase apps from the store. super lame well gonna try few other things then guess reinstall rom and kernel and see if that helps thank got for titanium backup
like title says, hopefully this helps with the issue.
I have been having this problem for about a week and none of the fixes have worked for me. the only thing that has worked is re flashing my ROM (decks 1.3d) and then it starts working again. I have also flashed to a sense ROM and had the same symptoms.
So today I started totally fresh with ROM and kernel. Then i nandroided before i did DTA2SD because i thought a2sd might be part of the problem. "my apps" worked for me before and after i flashed a2sd but only showed about 10 of my apps.
next I decided to uninstall facebook and reinstall to see if that would make the rest of the apps show up. Facebook was installed on my phone but was not one of the apps showing up in My apps.
Well, after i uninstalled facebook I went back to my apps and Nothing was there again. So I reinstalled facebook and still nothing. so since that didnt work I restored the nandroid from before I did a2sd and rebooted and now "my apps" are there again but only the 10 apps.
I haven't been able to figure out whats going on but this is a huge pain for me because I actually read what changed when my apps update so going to app-brain then to market and back and forth is pretty time consuming.
I don't know whats going on but hopefully this helps somebody figure something out. I come here for a lot of help so I wanted to try to contribute something
edit: I do have another google account but it has never been synced to my evo, but it was synced to my Eris. I forgot to mention that after this last reflash, when it stopped showing apps, I went to settings and synced my other Gmail account then went to market and switched to that account and my apps that I had on the Eris showed up. Of course it stopped working once I switched it back to the right Gmail account. That makes it even more strange that at the same time it was broke with one account and working with another
And I just came back to my phone, had a notification for an app update but when I clicked it took me to my apps in market but did not show the app that needed updated

I don't think it's a rom thing, I think its a Google thing. I've used a bunch of roms and they all have that issue once in a while

Clear data on the market or use tb pro n u can use market doctor if clearing data doesn't work

I finally figured out with this issue that the market was switching Google accounts on me. If you have more than one gmail account set up, when it happens hit Menu/Accounts and make sure it's on the right one.

I've had this issue, still have it actually. Every time I switch roms. Certain roms will
automatically start downloading my apps, and certain ones will not, they don't even
show up as things that I've downloaded.
No big deal. I use Android Commander to keep all of my apps backed up.
After any combination of partitioning/wiping/flashing, even if I restore a nandroid,
I verify that my apps are installed, if not, restore my backups. Then I open the
application manager, scroll down to market, clear cache and data, then I reload
the market, hit My Apps, and they are all in the list. If they need updates, I update.
This was already mentioned, but I figured I'd mention it again for good measure,
At least I always have a copy of the apps on the off chance that I forgot to nandroid
them, or the market 'forgets' what I had. I've flashed just about every rom I can
think of for the Hero and the Evo respectively, CM, AOSP, Sense based.. Never had
any problems this way.
Just use the app "Eris market fix" from the market it was made for the Droid Eris but works on Evo too. When your apps don't show u just open it click the fix market button reboot to recovery clear cache/dalvik boot back to your Rom and go to market > my apps and they are all back, works great when your market links on tb market doctor don't fix the market which I have had issues with lately but Eris market fix has worked everytime I've used it. Hope that helps the issue at hand its fixed my market about 3 dozen times, as mine breaks everytime i flash a new Rom lately or even if I flash the same Rom I'm on.

As noted before, you do want to be careful when using more than one Google account in the Gmail app. For whatever reason, sometimes the secondary account will try to be used for your Google interactions and will cause messes like apps not showing up or not updating correctly. I say this because that is what happened to me. Once I stopped using my other account in Gmail app everything worked again.
If you go to the Market web page from a computer, what happens? Log in as your primary account, whatever you use on your Evo. If it's synced to multiple phones, you'll be able to choose which one. Oddly enough, I only have one phone on my account and it shows two - one is my phone information and the other says "unrevoked" - I think this causes some of my issues with the Market. If your apps don't show, try downloading an app that you already have on your phone. Maybe it will trigger something when you push the app to your phone. If you still have your Eris and use the same apps on both phones, this could be the problem. As a last resort you could contact Google or whatever Market support there is. I can't say that it would do much good, but it's worth a shot.
