Title: It shouldn't be this hard
Post by: wolfinger1 on October 15, 2015, 05:48:38 pm

I can't migrate to 2.0.
I exported my wallet .json from 0.9.3
When I go to the Ïmport Keys in Graphene it says "unrecognized format"

It is to late for this now but maybe all of this should have waited rather than rush to some predetermined launch date just for the sake of meeting the deadline.,

I apologize for my tone but...seriously

Not all of us are techies. It may seem simple to some but I am one frustrated individual.

My attempt to use the console produced this message:


>> wallet_export_keys mywallet1014

OK



Can't find "mywallet1014"

in the console:

Code: [Select]

wallet_export_keys /home/[your user name]/Desktop/keys.json
if you want it in your home folder

Code: [Select]

wallet_export_keys /home/keys.json

OK! You're the greatest.

Now I've imported. and it says Unclaimed Balance [everything is there]

Below that (within the same box) it says Balance Claims which I click on and nothing. So my choices are:

Create Backup
Backup Brainkey
Restore Backup
Import Keys
Change Password
New Wallet
Delete Wallet

Now what? [props to you!!!!]

Did you create a wallet with a password?

If i remember correctly u should be able to click on balance claims.
That brings you to a new screen where you can claim all your balances by checking all the checkboxes and choose an account where you want to send your balances.

It's stuck on "Loading Balance Claims" so long that I went for a walk for the last hour and it's still there just spinning and spinning.

You've been a great help so far. What to do? It doesn't seem to get unstuck.
