Google's 'looking' into it...

Apparently, an error in the recent launched Google Play, is preventing users from accessing their already purchased apps.
Google Play is a cloud platform that combines Android Market, Google Music and eBookstore, and was recently launched (http://www.maxconsole.com/cgi-bin/maxconsole/rknewz.pl?function=detail&id=RKLS0000003952&cat=ANDROID) worldwide.
Seems there are a few problems arising, as some users have reported that apps they've bought are missing from the "My Apps" section of Play, and aren't showing up as purchased in the store.
Quite a few folks have seen many of the apps they paid cold, hard cash for have disappeared from their list of purchases after Google rebranded Android Market as the Play Store. We haven't had the problem ourselves, but according to a litany of posts on the XDA-Developers forums, there are plenty of you out there who have. In addition to disappearing from the list of purchases, the afflicted apps apparently give users an error message when attempting to access them directly.
Apparently, Google is already looking into it, but they filled the issue under "Fixed" when the problem is not:
The folks in Mountain View are aware of the problem and are "looking into the issue" according to the company's Known Issues page -- though curiously it's filed it under "Recently Fixed" despite its ongoing nature.
Yes, looks like this could be a common problem on Cloud-based services (http://www.maxconsole.com/cgi-bin/maxconsole/rknewz.pl?function=detail&id=RKLS0000005106&cat=GENERAL).
Let's hope these issues get sorted out for Android owners!
