Unintalling and reinstalling apps problem

[Mortarbound]

I downloaded an app and accidentally uninstalled it. I've been trying to get it back on my phone howeved under market it shows that it is installed, when I go into it's information on market the options to open the program or uninstall it are greyed out. If I go into my settings on the phone the app doesn't appear in the app list. Any help on fixing this would be appreciated.

have you tried a reboot or battery pull?

yes to both

i know that if it is a free app, you pretty much can uninstall and install all you want.

however, if it is a paid app and you returned it within the first 24 hours, you might not be allowed to download the app again since it might appear that you are simply re-using the 24 hour grace period again.

what is the app?

it's the weather channel's app.....it was free.

You could download the app called aTrackDog. Then try uninstalling the app from there.Go to market again & try to re-download it

I had a problem with a similar situation on an app some time ago on my Hero.  There are some free "app uninstaller" programs in the Market, unfortunately I don't remember which one I used, you might try the "App Remover" program (free in the market) to see if it can clear up your issue for you.
