I installed yesterday bitcoin software. created new bitcoin address. Then i purchased some bitcoin. But i did not receive the bitcoin and there is no transaction in my bitcoin software. So i checked the transaction in blockchain.info it showed the transaction correctly.
But in my bitcoin software didn't see any transaction.
my bitcoin software synchronizing with network (82 weeks behind). Does it cause the problem? how to access my bitcoin right now?

Once the days are caught up and the wallet isnt behind, your bitcoin will show up in your wallet. Just leave it connected to internet and wait it out

This is a potential reduction in security for convenience, which is fine in many situations (small amounts).

If you aren't the sole controller of your private keys, you don't have any bitcoins.

It's better to wait out a few days and receive a more secure and stable version of the wallet.

If you have this, it's normal ... wait. be carefull, the blockchain folder take 16Go. Note : you can close bitcoin-QT to retrieve your original speed connexion ... and then, when you have finish to "work", restart bitcoin-QT. It's not a problem to do this.

You can use Electrum or Multibit if you have limited space and bandwidth.

Some wallets like electrcum don't download the bc, or you could go for an online blockchain.info wallet.

Once it is current, your coins should be there.
