Apps will not download

I have 3 downloading apps that are in the "waiting" mode in my dock. They have not downloaded any data at all - they've been in this state for over two hours now.

I have two other computers on the same network that have downloaded the same apps within seconds.

I've tossed cookies, restarted the app store, restarted the computer….what else can I do? Any app I try to download on this one computer just seem to "wait" forever with no activity.

Help?

Thanks

I can confirm that turning off my link aggregated/bonded ethernet connection and just using a single gigabit connection immediately kicked the apps out of waiting and into downloading mode!

Wahoo! At least I'm not crazy.

Now, Apple needs to fix this because I can't really run without my bonded network connection - I'm pushing huge video files from my X-serve through those pipes!

Thanks everyone for your input. I'm going to mark this thread as "answered" - although that's only sort of true. It's answered only as far as Apple needs to fix this bug…fingers crossed.

Thanks,

I have found a solution for me.
I stoped the bundling of the two network cards in my mac pro and use for the moment only one. And the App Store application download the applications.
Before it works good on my mac book with one network connection but not on my mac pro with a bundle of the two network cards...
Stupid what apple there done...
