Magento loading base theme instead of downloaded theme

Im trying to install a theme on magento 1.9. Have copied all files into the correct places.

Under System -> Configuration -> Design -> Themes I have set templates, skin, layout and default all to the theme name.

The problem I think i am having is 'Current package name' It was originally set to 'rwd' and when it is set to this it loads the default 1.9 magento theme. However when i change this to 'default' it loads the magento base theme. If i set the package name to the name of the theme it also loads the base package.

your downloaded theme is under frontend/default/yourtheme or frontend/yourtheme ? - Pradeep Sanku
Its under frontend/default/yourtheme. I have just tried frontend/yourtheme and it defaulted to the base theme again. - lnelson92
