Apps missing from new Android market???

[nhrata7]

So somtime last week I got the up to the new Android market. When I opened it up to look at my apps I only have 5 listed. I turned the phone off and the back on and all 92 showed up. Now it seems to depend on the day and time, sometimes it show 5 sometimes 52 and others 92. It seems to be stuck on the 5 recently and it is always the same 5. I also dont see where I can download any updates. Can anyone help with any of these issues?

Good afternoon!

Usually when apps stop showing under 'My Apps' is because the developer has re-named it or removed it from the Market. If you search for these apps in the Market, does it show in  your results? If so, does it also state that it's installed on your phone already? 

If you do find the apps are just plain missing from "My App's, then please visit Google's Android Support online for additional assistant!

Have a great day!

One thing to look at is go to the market on the web. There is a login link in the upper right hand corner of the screen. When you log in, then there will be a "My Market" link in the same area as the login link. Click on My Market and you will see all the apps you have on your phone. You can also order a download to your phone from the web interface. It really works slick.

The web interface will also tell you if the app is still compatible with your phone. If you click on the app to open up the webpage for the app, it will tell you on the left side near the top. If the developer changes the target devices, you will see it there. If you find an app that states it is no longer compatible for your phone, then contact that developer to find out why. With the ability to target what OS AND target certain devices, it is possible that the developer has a problem with a certain device and chose not to allow it to be installed, or they just made a mistake and accidently clicked on not to target certain devices.

I think that the new market is still working out the kinks. I do not have the new market yet, but my wife has. She really hates the new market. I think that you are seeing some kinks because it shows different amount of apps on different days.

Apps will notify you on updates. I check the market weekly (open market->menu->my apps) and the apps that have updates will show you that they need to be downloaded.

If the market continues to show that you a low amount of apps you actually have downloaded, and you have checked the web to make sure that they are still compatible with your phone, then you need to contact Google to let them know.
