Title: issues with the bitcoin wallet app on OSX Post by: mrh235 on May 26, 2011, 03:56:05 PM i just downloaded the bitcoin wallet app and everything seemed to work fine until i had someone send me bitcoins. As soon someone sent me some bitcoins I received "2500 blocks," but i still have zero connections, zero transactions, and my wallet balance is zero. probably a noob question, but I just want to make sure nothing's wrong. when should my balance update? Is there something special I have to do?

I had a similar issue back thinking it was MSE but it was my router the whole time. :o
