I can browse the internet fine, i can use any app that uses the internet like facebook, youtube, etc. I can even browse the android market fine. Its just stuck at "starting download". I really dont want to reset my phone.
I've tryed:
- restarting
- Turning off and on data connections ( both 3g and wifi )
- Clearing any google cache
- google talk
- deleting apps ( if its a space issue )
- canceling and restarting downloads
- have it attempt to download for 24+ hours
None of these worked. it seems reseting the phone is the last option. I have the Sony Xperia X10. Has anyone with that phone resolved the issue? Is it even the phone that's causing the issue? maybe the market itself is buggy. I really don't know what to do. Please help.

I was going to put this in the X10 section but I figured more people would see it here.
 
Have you recently changed your email adress from Googlemail to gmail.com? If you have then that is the issue, options are that you hard reset your phone or switch back to googlemail.

I think....

I registered under gmail in the begining. didn't even know there was a googlemail before i researched my problem.


How do you clear the goggle Cache and cancel downloads?

under settings, then your applications manager
