Apps won't download

When I go to the Market app & choose new apps to download, they just keep saying "Starting download." At first I thought I was trying to do too many, so I've stopped all the downloads, but even when I do one at a time it just sits on that screen. When I go to my list of apps in Market, I have a list of the ones I've picked but none of them ever finish downloading. What am I doing wrong? My husband has been loading apps on his X2 all day w/no problems.

Are you connected to a Wi-Fi network when downloading? It usually works better and faster over Wi-Fi than 3G.

Well no. We have WiFi in our home but when I try to connect to it on my phone it keeps saying the password is wrong. I'm taking the code right off the router, so I don't know what the problem is with that either. I love this phone, but I have only had it for about 14 hours and I already want to throw it out the window!

Try this ... from your computer, go to the search bar (mine's in the lower left, after clicking on the Windows icon) and type in "Network Security Settings." A box may pop up that shows your password, security key and security type (WPA, etc.). With some devices I've connected to WiFi, I had to type in my security key.

Also try restarting your phone before trying to download again. Good luck ... don't throw it out the window! :smileyhappy:

Nope, still didn't work. Thanks anyway!

For applications not downloading from the Market it seems to work again after the both the cache and the data are cleared from the market app and force closed. This will rebuild the application data. Sometimes you have to go as far as uninstalling updates to the Market app to get downloads to work.
