If you manage the Keystore file yourself, it is impossible to update your app with a new version once you lost that Keystore. Currently, App Signing is the only way to update your application when you lost your Keystore.
If you've lost your private upload key, or it's been compromised, you can create a new one, and then ask your account owner to contact support to reset the key.
You can create a new keystore, but the Android Market wont allow you to upload the apk as an update - worse still, if you try uploading the apk as a new app it will not allow it either as it knows there is a 'different' version of the same apk already in the market even if you delete your previous version from the market
Do your absolute best to find that keystore!!
When you find it, email it to yourself so you have a copy on your gmail that you can go and get in the case you loose it from your hard drive!
