Apps on SD card don't show up in market

Hello,
I'm using the stock sprint ROM on my EVO (unrooted).
I installed several apps - all work fine. I moved apps like barcode scanner/angry birds to the sd card (not using app2sd or any app - just the android froyo option of move to sd) - they work fine, show up under installed apps on "manage applications" on the phone

Today, I went to the android market on my phone and noticed that the apps (like angry birds, barcode scanner) don't show up under "My apps".
If I go to angry birds app page, it gives me the option to install (not upgrade). Same with barcode scanner...

I'm relatively new to the android OS, but once an app is moved to the SD card, is it normal for it to not show up in "My apps" in the market app?

(I tried on market.android.com with same results).

I finally clicked the "Install app" on the angry birds page and it installed successfully... it shows only one angry birds instance in my "manage applications" on the phone..

It may be a market update. When I flashed gingerbread, my apps showed up on the list but weren't listed as "installed".

It also could be a hiccup because of all the recent changes that have been made

my EVO is way cooler than yours

My apps have been acting weird lately as well. Every since I tried moving my user apps to the sd card using titanium backup everything has been messing up. I can no longer update my date profile or my prl, I cant install any apps, and my app manager doesn't read how big the files are. All it says is computing. Ive tried a hard reset, I did a nand backup before i moved my apps to the sd card but when I did a nand restore, the same thing was happening. It also says my google sign in is wrong when I know I entered the right password. My accounts and sync screen says that sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly. I don't know how to fix this. Im open to suggestions. I tried posting this on xda but as always I got no responses back. PPc geeks always does a pretty good job with responding with solutions so I look forward to hearing from someone soon. Thanks in advance.

I can't update my apps. There may be an issue with the Google Market place.

Anyone have any ideas on this?

Im not using gingerbread and my apps wont install at all even after a factory reset.
What do you think is going on? Is my phone just messed up? Do I need to replace it?

Im wondering if i messed up my sd card because when I try to mount my phone to computer and enter disk drive it never accesses my sd card...Htc sync works but not disk drive...May be when I transferred apps to the sd card that didn't belong there it may have messed something up. Im now attempting to format sd card again to see if that helps. I have a 32mb sd card class 2 btw.
