how long willl my balance remain unconfirmed?

[user2013]

I haven't used my wallet for a month and today I tried updating the client and moved my program folder from c: to a different drive. Afterwards, my wallet's balance is remaining unconfirmed, even though bitcoin-qt says it's "up to date". I tried to update the balance by sending 0.01 BTC from another address to my wallet, but all it did was bumped my (confirmed) balance from 0.00 to 0.01.

What should I do to make it confirmed?

Edit: My transactions show up as unconfirmed. Only my latest test transaction is confirmed.

What is the amount of the unconfirmed transaction? If it's small and didn't have a fee it could take days or months to be confirmed (if at all), due to the importance factor (look up the "bitcoin transaction fees" on Google for the mathematics behind it).

I moved my bitcoin wallet to a new system at one point - and I was frightened; because, my balance showed as zero.  However, once the block-chain completed synchronization, everything was back as it should be.

Were the transactions that are showing up as not confirmed for you, ever confirmed in the past?

What type of wallet did you use? My understanding is you can usually re-sync with the blockchain (removing the payment from your local client if you are using one) since it hasn't actually been included in a block yet. This should allow you to re-send the funds with a fee.
