I have installed 0.4.24, and password does not open wallet. Do I have to import my backup wallet from BitsharesX?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Have you tried moving your wallets directory from the .BitSharesX folder to .BitShares?
Thats what I plan to do. Is that ok devs?

That should have happend automatically ..
Also if yout GUI asks for a passwort, the "default" wallet already exists in the wallet folder ..
not sure what's happening here .. sure about the password?
-
Hmm. Ok. I haven't touched anything yet. What should I try next?
? move my backup "default" folder within "wallets" subfolder into >appdata > roaming > bitshares > wallets > default
-
Phew. Fixed, just had to move the default folder across and remove existing default folder. Not sure what I did wrong...
-
strange ..
you can of course always recover/reimport from a old backup
http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/RecoveringFunds
make sure to keep *all* backups
//edit: ah .. glad to see it fixed ... strange thing .. over here the wallet was moved automatically :-\

find the old "wallets" directory.You will find in there the folder ".backups" , there you will find the *.json file to import the old wallet going on file>import on the new gui (v0.4.24)

Thanks guys for the quick feedback. Not all more recent asset transactions are showing up, but blocks are synced. BitGld and BitBTC seem to have disappeared...
The transactions appears as >UNKNOWN although I can retrieve the TxID by clicking on the date.
The wallet_recover_transaction followed by the ID says transaction not found if I include # in the console command, and this if no #
transaction_record.ledger_entries.size() == 1:
Any remedy for this?

what about ....
wallet_regenerate_keys <account_name> 2000

wallet_recover_transaction <transaction_id_prefix> [recipient_account]

wallet_regenerate_keys <account_name> 2000
Thanks for getting back. I have tried this command and the other, it rescans - but still Tx listed as UNKNOWN.

This was really helpful, and made me realise what I had done wrong. I had backups in 2 locations on different drives for safety and had inadvertently restored a wallet that just a few days earlier. The rescan command didnt restore Tx listed as "UNKNOWN", but importing the correct wallet did. Again, thanks everyone.
