Backed-up apps not showing up after hard reset

So last week I did a hard rest on my Droid. Before doing it I backed up all my apps to my SD using Astro. Well I reinstalled them and now when I go to the market it doesn't show apps that I had backed-up and reinstalled as being installed at all. Only ones that show up are ones I downloaded after and purchased apps. Is it a big deal??? Will I still get update notices???

if they dont show in the market as installed then no you wont get update notices
 
i dont know, it's weird how it works...I've gone from Bugless Beast 0.9 to Bugless Beast 1.0, to Bugless Beast 1.1 and for whatever reason my apps download automatically after I install the new rom (both free and purchased apps). I don't know if it's some setting on my phone or what, but once I install the ROM i'll notice the sync icon in my notification bar and then after some time a notifcation that says "83 apps restored"(or whatever number of apps I have) and then they'll all be back in the market. I never tried Astro or Titanium Back up though, so i really don't know if it's some setting your missing..
