what happens, when you try to download from xterm ?
apt-get install <application name>
OR
apt-get update
Hopefully there would be more error message, paste that message here
apt-get install <application name>
OR
apt-get update
Hopefully there would be more error message, paste that message here

You have to enable root access if you want to use apt-get.
Can you post the exact error message from the application manager.

nicolai

But i do not understand why everything was ok and them for some unknown reason it do not appear any more programs on the application manager.
When i try to install some app directly from the Maemo.org site on the downloads, it opens automatically the application manager program , and after trying to download it appear a following error message:
unable to download 'app name'
Application package not found

Did you did, what nicolai said ?
paste the error message from application log.
Also mention, what new has been installed since it was last working ?
And as root, when you run "apt-get update" what does it says ?

Nicolai said, i have to enable the root access, right?
How can i enable it? Because on the application manager i have configured a lot of catalogs (Maemo extras , Extras-devel, Extras devel-Testing , maemo.org.... also from ovi store, etc..) and now when i open the program and click on DOWNLOAD the only thing that appears is a information saying "operation failed and then (NO APPLICATIONS AVAILABLE)"
Since the last working that was 3 days ago, i didnīt install any app.... it stop working with no reason!!!
in x-terminal root, when i run "apt-get update" what does it says is the following:
"E: Could not open lock file /var/Lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the list directory "
In the beginning i thought that the catalogs links were down..... but it seems that iīm the only one that canīt make the access to them.
I realy need you help....
