Help! Bitcoin not receiving money

[ilan354]

Hey guys,
So I just got started with bitcoin because I needed to pay someone with it and I set up a mtgox and dwolla account, put $10 into my mtgox account, converted it into 0.9btc (approximately) and withdrew that to my bitcoin address 1NbGWAqYZ5rR23ZoPGN2ye1VUbTAASiUMC
That was about 2-3 days ago and no money was deposited into my bitcoin client. I emailed mtgox but never got a response. I just tried to use the bitcoin faucet to see if my address was even working and I never received anything. On the recent faucet customer list my transaction id says no such transaction! http://blockexplorer.com/tx/e388b87968060bcf735b8849f2935635a71f285e5167729f57604aa9a8126e99

My blocks have fully downloaded (126435 blocks)

I just created another bitcoin address 13WfRuDN8HBLow7unW4RKXgAHF7hqmVcTt so if anyone want to try sending a tiny amount there (I'll pay you back) to see if it works that would be great.

Is there anything I can do about my $10?
Thanks,
Ilan

I am a noobie so don't slam me if I am wrong, but your block count seems low, I do not know if this would effect transactions.

No your blocks haven't fully downloaded - your transaction is alive and well but first appeared in block 137456

So you need to wait for the rest of the blocks to download. The windows client does sometimes seem to get stuck downloading blocks - might be worth closing bitcoin (exit, not just minimise) and starting again to kick it off again

the current block count is at 137844

Use http://blockexplorer.com/q/getblockcount to know where the block count is at

Thanks but I can't seem to get the blocks to download. I am running snow leopard on a mbp
I just restarted


EDIT
Sorry guys, it is downloading!
Thanks so much for your help!
