are you using any proxy to connect to internet? Or are you behind a firewall? — ManuPK, Nov 15 '11 at 14:48

You might want to check your internet connection (but you posted here somehow, so I guess it's OK).

Then take a look at Maven docs about user settings; if you're behind a firewall/NAT, then you probably need to add proxy definition inside the <proxy> tag.

Read here on how to connect to maven from a proxy. Try updating after that it will work.

Another possibility is that your organization firewall/proxy prohibits downloading of jars. You can verify that by trying to download the jars through a browser. If you get an error, then you may want to work with your IT folks to fix it.
