To see if the transaction made it out to the network, go to
http://blockchain.info/address/<address> (replacing <address> with the address from your wallet that you had the coins sent to.)
As for blockchain updating, what icon(s) do you have in the bottom right-hand corner of the client?
Ok yes i checked the transaction and it succesfully made it out of the network, i have two icons at the bottom of my wallet, one indicates active connections, when i hover over that specific icon it states i have 8 active connections, also there is a circular icon rotating which indicates the catching up process, thats the problem it isnt catching up, therefore not displaying the confirmation of the transaction..
Come on guys..there must be someone in the BC community, who has knowledge on this problem..
Like scintill said, first you need to figure out whether the transaction made it to the network.
Assuming it did, and you still have the wallet that generated that address, there is no need to worry. It can all be explained by block chain not updating. Even if your client never works, you can still access the coins because you have the private key in your wallet.
First, back up your wallet. Second, check if you have free space and you have connections. If you don't have any connections to the network, try removing
addr.dat and try launching the client again. If you have connections and free space, report back.
Ok how exactly can it be explained through the block chain not updating? Also how can i locate the coins using my clients private key?(where do i locate the private key also) You instructed me to Back Up my wallet...How do i do this? I'm assuming you check for connections by hovering over the icon at bottom of wallet page..Sorry about the million questions but im lost and desperate for these coins..
