Me too, seems like it downloaded the pack halfway through and immediately stopped, changing to a window of Vanilla Minecraft, as supposed to be FTB Minecraft...
Do either of you have a log?
Also need OS/bit type, and Java/bit type.
Can you tell me if you're able to download either of the links in my signature.

I'm having the same problem. I have tried reinstalling multiple times (including from the link in your sig, Ashzification) and I have had no luck. It says it's installing the modpack and it takes a good 20 minutes to do so, but once it's all said and done there are no mods there. I checked the FTB folder and they are not there. I had no problems until this latest update.
I'm running Windows 7 Home 64-bit and Java 1.7.0 64-bit

Yeah, I even started a map just to see if that had anything to do with it, and nothing
Same here, started this morning for me as well, after I installed the newest FTB update.
Well, the menu will always look like normal minecraft.
Do a clean reinstall of the launcher, and back up your saves!

I've already tried to reinstall the launcher, about 3 times actually. I even manually deleted the FTBBETAA and ftblauncher folders once just to make sure. Is there something else I should be deleting?

Looks like I'm having the same issue. The download was extremely slow on my Windows 7 machine. Is it just timing out or something?
It's a issue with the FTB servers, some get it, others don't, have no idea why.
Even if i gave you a direct link to the files on creeperhost.net would it still time out for some wierd reason.
But it tends to be fixed over time, at least i haven't seen any other solution exept for getting your hands on the files from others.

A clean reinstall involves deleting everything that has to do with FTB, and reinstalling it into a brand new clean folder.
lol i went a bit extreme here but, as i have nothing that isn't easily replacable on my computer, i restored it to factory settings, tried feed the beast in a new folder, and it still didn't work. face it, it is the update that is causing all of these people's problems.
i am having the same problem .... when i updated the launcher to 1.07 it has stopped working completely. It seems that no mods are being downloaded. FML is failing to work so it just starts vanilla minecraft
i cannot seem to get the 1.06 launcher back (despite backups) so now FTB is just a complete fail. Please fix this issue ASAP
Edit: I have wiped all files 4 times ... and tried every possible combination of option adjustments. Still nothing
Edit 2: ok i have managed to find a work around.
*copy your Saves folder from FTB/FTBBETAA/minecraft if you havent already*
when trying to install the mods it gives you a link in the console to a ftbbetaa.zip file .. download this file separately through your browser.
1. remove your FTB directory
2. launch the FTB launcher and choose force update in options.
3. close the "downloading mod pack" window when it opens.
4. minecraft.jar (and other files) should download to the bin folder
5. close FTB launcher
6. open the ftbbetaa.zip file you got earlier
7. extract all files in the .minecraft directory to your FTB/FTBBETAA/minecraft folder
8. extract the instMods folder to your FTB/FTBBETAA folder
9. replace your Saves folder in FTB/FTBBETAA/minecraft
10. run FTBLauncher again
11. FML should launch and tidy thing up
12. FTB launches with Forge and Mods loaded correctly now
13. we all play Happily Ever After

This is always my first suggestion (and often a repeated suggestion).
Clean slate, level playing field, and a direction to go from when troubleshooting.
The update more than likely added a new problem to pre-existing problems for most people (like a wild 32 bit Java appearing).
If the above mentioned steps don't work, go into Update temp, pull out the launcher, and replace the existing launcher (in the install directory) with the one from update temp.
