Are you sure your card can inject? U can run an aireplay-ng test to check.

You capture the handshake passively you will not need injection unless you want to knock off a client to speed things up,
If you see traffic on that channel then all you neen do is wait for the connection. Plus if the ssid is not part of a rainbow table then you in for a long long wait for the result unless the key is 12345678. PS. If the card is hopping then capture could fail make sure to lock the channel.

I am having the same issue with the Atheros AR9271 (AWUS036NHA) … I cannot get a handshake with any WPA AP… and please don’t ask me if the card is capable of injecting… its an Atheros chipset and one of the best ones available… this card should have no problem performing a DOS and then getting the handshake,,,,

The reason for this is that your not close enough to the victim’s PC .

Make sure to disable network connection software like network manager or wicd as it will hop as to look for a network to connect to.
Use airmon to set the card on a channel an use the channel flag with airodump.

As VladimirVam pointed out you do need to be in range of the access point and the client card.
