android app installation issues

[GREENI3]

I previously tried to download pes 2012 as an afk file from 4shared, which didn't work (error message etc).
I now want to download it properly through the android market, but because I downloaded the afk file equivalent, the app market presumes i've already bought it and only lets me 'install' the app.

If i choose to install the app, it says I haven't yet purchased the app to install it.

How can I officially download pes 2012 from this situation?

Thanks,

grab an easy uninstaller app from the market and give that a bash.

ok I uninstalled it with easy uninstaller, but the app market still shows it as 'purchased'?

settings >applications > find the market app and clear the cache.

reboot dog and bone.

doesn't let me clear cache, only clear data.

no; I can force stop, uninstall, clear data and move to phone, but not clear cache.

It also doesn't show the exact memory used by the app for storage.

It's showing 148kb instead of the claimed 5.3mb?

Btw I've never actually been able to load the app fully.
Instead on start up, I get an error message -
"Download error. The server is not available or validation of the files is not successful. Please try again later"

Dont worry about the file size. That will be diff for everyone.

okies, the next thing would be have a look in the file system.
You may need to grab a file manager from the market.
I am using estrongs file manager. You will also need to change the settings so you can look in the system area of the phone.

go to /data/data and look for the pes2012 folder.

Titanium backup has an option to remove market links.
