Download Status

[x I'm tc]

Apologies if this is already answered somewhere. When I have my phone plugged into my PC, and have Zune running, is there a way to see the apps I've already got installed?

Furthermore, if I buy an app -- a large one like a game, for example -- that might take a while to download, it seems to take forever to show up on my phone. Is there a way to see the installation status of that app, like what % downloaded it is, etc?

Thanks,
Jim

Not that I'm aware of, unfortunately. Someone else (a Windows user) might be able to clarify.

If you open up Marketplace on your phone, on the bottom left you will see "# Downloads". Click that and it should bring up all your current downloads, the status and percentage(s) complete.

Best I can think of is in Zune: settings -> account -> purchase history

Granted that is going to show everything, including deleted programs, but it may be useful.
