Help Downloaded Apps aren't in my Market?

I had to get my Evo replaced today and I used ASTRO and MyBackup Pro to backup my apps to my SD Card. After installing them onto my new Evo, I went to the Market and then to Downloads, and they don't show up there. How am I suppose to know when I will have an update?

Thanks for the help.


first go to menu.settings.applications.manage applications.market

clear data , then do market updater if you can (mine is greyed out)

reboot the phone, go to market. this is one of the many issues I had with mybackup

sometimes just a reboot fixes it. In my case 1 time they eventually just showed up...and one other time they never did.

Rebooted many many times and I have tried restoring my Apps with MyBackup Pro multiple times also.

My paid apps do not show in the Market, but my unpaid ones do. I don't want to re-pay for apps that I already bought. I'm not sure why the Market doesn't recognize my paid apps?!

i am unsure as well. it seems that mybackup didn't back up something. did you restore the backed up system settings?

At this point my best guess is mybackup didn't back up what you needed. The information is stored in one of the system settings (pretty sure it is" market" titanium backs mine up fine with no issues. Sorry I can't be more help ...maybe someone successfully using mybackup can shed more light ....have you tried contacting google? You could also email a copy of your receipts to the developer of each app and see what they can do to help
