Have you tried installing the apps using wifi vs 3g?

I don't use 3g to d/l apps because I'm on AT&T's lowest data plan. But the download isn't the problem. The apps download to my phone just fine. I always get them downloaded just fine, but when the installer itself actually starts running it just will not let me click the install button.
Gave up on Amazon for now for same reason. Tried all the same solutions. Sometimes I can install several apps in a row. Other times a reboot nets me zero success and I have to reboot several times to install one app.
Android Market and Amazon both suck
I have switched to SmartAppFinder.com now and so far I like their service. They do a great job in keeping out all the junk apps and you can pay with PayPal.
Same with me, Amazon and the Google Android market really suck.

Does Amazon allow you to purchase from the web site and push to the phone like the Android Market does? If so, have you tried it that way? (I'm at work right now, so I can't check it myself.)
I haven't checked, but I don't care if it does or not. That doesn't solve the fundamental problem of apps not installing correctly, and it wouldn't help at all with updates to apps already purchased.
Has there been a solution to this issue yet? I'm on an ASUS Transformer with Honeycomb and have the same exact issue.
Doing the stuff on the Amazon website seems to have fixed the issue for me personally. However, my wife has the exact same setup as I do, and she's still having the problem.
So...yes, no, and maybe.
That is pretty lame. Thanks for the reply though. I really liked all the free apps.Doing the stuff on the Amazon website seems to have fixed the issue for me personally. However, my wife has the exact same setup as I do, and she's still having the problem.

I can't access unkown source, I have 1.4.2 and ManualNooter 5.02.19
When I go into settings > applications I have no option to make sure unknown sources is checked. Is there another way to do that?
Figured out another reason this issue happens.
I was having problems installing the Amazon app store, couldn't click install. When I did a search for people having a problem with not being able to click install on any apps, not just Amazon, I found that they fixed the problem by disabling an app called "Screen Filter". I was not using Screen Filter, but I was using an experimental feature of Juice Defender Ultimate, which automatically adjusts the screen brightness like Screen Filter. After disabling this, I could install the app store.
My wife noted the same problem on her phone. She couldn't install anything if Screen Filter was running. It still happens from time to time (even when Screen Filter isn't running), but I haven't really had a problem with it for awhile now.
I was just reading thru this thread due to having the same problem. I did find that another program which affects screen brightness, Lux, was responsible. I got it fixed at the moment from a setting within Lux which turns it off for incompatible programs. If there is not a similar setting in other programs to turn it off with incompatible programs I also found that freezing Lux with Titanium Backup also allowed downloads from Amazon.

I had the same issue. Turns out neyetlight was the culprit...
Deleted the multiple devices on Amazon account.
But still get "Download paused"
so - cannot reinstall any purchased apps.
CM 10.1
maybe there is a "brightness app" to temporarily freeze?
Thanks
possible cause
Okay, I finally got the amazon app store installed. The reason I couldn't pushed the install button was because another app called diagnosis was using the same area of the screen. By turning off that app the installation has gone smoothly. So next time you're having this problem, see what apps is currently running in your background, and try turn them off and see what happens.

Found the solution
Like someone mentioned, I tried disabling my bluelight filter and it worked!

As above, any screen dimming or filtering app seems to stop ONLY AMAZON from installing apps. I set Lux to "sleep" mode and the install button worked right away.
So..
Lux
Twilight
Bluefilter
etc
