Got it! Thanks for all of your help guys

What's the file name of your backup? I wonder it is a backup of BTS 0.x wallet or PTS wallet.

Any idea when I set the passphrase? I don't remember doing it. It looks like I can get into my account, my previous transactions are showing on the ledger but no funds in the wallet. I can't import the wallet without the passphrase?

Well, this is bad. I'm not sure what my wallet passphrase is. Any work - around? It's doesn't seem to be my password

Sort of a newbie here. I have funds that have been sitting as an investment. I never upgraded to the 2.0 system since it's came out.

I backed up my wallet as a JSON file. How do I gain access to this wallet again? I'm having trouble importing it. Thanks

If you have very old backup:

Install 0.4.27.2 first: https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-0.x/releases/tag/bts%2F0.4.27.2
Import your json backup to it.
Uninstall 0.4.27.2
Install 0.9.3c https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-0.x/releases/tag/bts%2F0.9.3c it's will upgrade your wallet
Don't wait for sync, login into wallet and export keys as described here: http://docs.bitshares.eu/migration

Hi :)

First: export your keys from bitshares 0.9.3c client using the console method --> http://docs.bitshares.eu/bitshares/migration/howto-exporting-wallet.html#using-the-console

Second: go to https://bitshares.openledger.info and import your keys as described here, on "web wallet" section --> http://docs.bitshares.eu/bitshares/migration/howto-importing-wallet.html#web-wallet
