I'm trying to update my programs and it fails everytime to download the file from the n900 aplication manager.

Does anyone know whats going on?

A couple of days ago I was having some troubles trying to check which updates were available... the blue bar was stopping at 40% more or less.

-Is it failing to refresh the downloads list (e.g. package database update), or failing to download a program itself?
-Have you tried it on a different network? (presuming you're using wifi, otherwise try wifi)
-Can you load http://repository.maemo.org/ manually in the browser?

The maemo.org servers did have some downtime a while back, but I think they got that all fixed.

Also, if you post the actual error message, verbatim, it usually goes a long way to getting quick help.

while back it failed refreshing the download list now it failes to download.

the error message was: failed to download <App name>

...

As I was typing this reply I tried to update again and it's working now... lol weird
