Title: Re: I can see the transaction, but wallet is empty Post by: Eri on June 23, 2011, 09:35:07 AM depending how long you've had the client open, you may not have loaded all the blocks, you need to have the entire thing loaded before any transactions will show up, which can take Many hours if it was just recently installed. you can verify you have them all if your count matches this one http://blockexplorer.com/q/getblockcount if it does and it still hasn't updated, then you just have to wait a bit for it to update.

It doesn't need to be confirmed to be visible in the client. As Eri explained, the OP needs to download the block chain.Title: Re: I can see the transaction, but wallet is empty Post by: the oob on June 23, 2011, 10:14:09 AM Ok so I just need to run the bitcoin client for ages?
Title: Re: I can see the transaction, but wallet is empty Post by: kjj on June 23, 2011, 10:15:31 AM Ok so I just need to run the bitcoin client for ages? Just until it catches up to the block that has your transaction in it.
