Just wait for the resync to finish up ...
Transactions went through - For anyone else having problems this sequence was a solution to a combination of problems i was having. All detailed instructions on how to do the below are given above by very generous members.
1. use the console to download the blockchain not the client, when the blockchain is downloaded close the console
2. Backup you wallet backups IMPORTANT use xeroc's instructions above.
3. Open the client and import a backup. Here I has to close and restart my client but i dont know if my computer froze. Enter you password.
4. Let the client sync the blocks since you closed the console.
5. Goto your wallet name top left of the client click on it and then select advanced at the bottom. In PREFERENCES change the log out time so its much longer. I had to do this because the console has to scan transactions now the blockchain has downloaded and with the default timeout I was getting logged out before the transaction scanning was complete.
6. Hopefully now you are free to play.
