Hi, and sorry I'm new here, so I don't know where to post this.

I purchased the motorola Droid 3 weeks ago, and purchased an App for a few dollars which I obviously don't want to repurchase. Today I picked up my new Incredible and had everything transferred over. When I logged back into the same google account (for gmail at least), I still didn't have the option to reinstall the app. It didn't show up in my market downloads or anything whatsoever.

So my question is...how do I possibly get this back? I have the email with the purchase bill and everything..just don't want to buy it again is all.

Thanks!

If memory serves me correctly, you should be able to search for it in the market and find it listed as Purchased (ie without a button marked BUY).
When I switched from my Magic to my N1 I had to search for a few of my previously purchased app that weren't listed in the My Downloads section.

I tried this, and no-go. Still has a price tag next to it...not quite sure what to do.
