HI Guys,

I am running Bitcoin-qt to support my armory client.

Last time I downloaded the whole block was 2 months ago.

Today I opened up bitcoin-qt and it would not sync with the network.

I downloaded the latest Bitcoin -qt client and not it sees that I have all but the last 8 weeks of transactions, but it refuses to download any more.

Anyideas on how I can get it to sync with the rest of the block?

Cheers,
SC

How long are you leaving it?  It takes a loooooong time to update, because there's a lot of blocks being solved recently.

If the first peer it tries to pull from fails it may not continue until the next block is found on the network.

On the order of days... so be patient.

What version of bitcoin-qt are you running?

Edit: oops, reread the first post post.
