This issue doesn't tend to have a single cause. It can be best described as "your wallet app gets desynchronized from the Bitcoin network". The problem Bitcoin solves is synchronization in a large, distributed system in which some nodes are malicious. That's a tough problem. bitcoinj has had over time various bugs that can be triggered in edge cases that cause it to end up desynchronised from the network. Doing a "replay" tells it to forget its current state and rebuild it all from the block chain, which resolves the issue.
The Android wallet has a bug reporter built in which is very useful. I've got a long to investigate at the moment that resulted in desync, but it's not necessarily the same issue you're seeing.

Yes it seems to affect somewhere around 1 per 10, 000 transactions but we have not been able to track down the problem.
If you could email the logs that are in your user data log directory to [email protected] they would be useful. Just zip up everything in the log directory. You can see where your user data is stored in version 0.5.14 by looking at the 'Messages' tab when MultiBit starts - it is written there.
Thanks

Due to bugs. Unfortunately, without people submitting logs, it's hard to know what the bugs are. If this happens to you, please do work with Jim to submit a bug report.
I found this:I sent bitcoin to MultiBit but they never arrived
https://multibit.org/en/help/v0.5/help_support_sentBitcoinToMultibitButTheyNeverArrived.html
and this:
Money doesn't appear

it seems they know about that issue. But anyway, If you are new to multibit its still not a secure feeling.
It seems they dont ask to submit logs from people...? I dont know how to do that and where to send.

I was having this exact same problem and about to start a thread on it, but the reset worked for me too and thanks for the help.
Me too!But why we need to "Reset Blockchains and Transactions"?
If you are new to multibit and installed it and it seems you can not receive BTC, its not secure feeling.

Try Tools->Reset Blockchains and Transactions...
Are you really sure that 184TT1NuXdEFJXaJYg3XCgaW5aRWxCis3u is the address that is in the Multibit wallet?

Hi, thank you
Here's my adress: https://blockchain.info/address/184TT1NuXdEFJXaJYg3XCgaW5aRWxCis3u
Everything seems allright.
Multibit is online and synchronized. But the wallet is empty.

Can you post a link to the transaction in question?
Did you check whether Multibit can connect/synchronise with the Bitcoin network? (state Online - synchronised with network in the status bar at the bottom)

Hello,
I sended myself a little amount of bitcoins to my multibit-adress.
Some hours later it's not shown in multibit. But transaction did work fine, when I copy my adress from multibit to blochain.info, the amount is there.
Can anybody help?
