Title: Issues importing Multibit wallet [RESOLVED]
Post by: yellowecho on July 30, 2014, 03:03:02 am
I'm having some difficulties importing my Multibit wallet. I receive a successful message but no additional BTSX display in my account.  Importing PTS worked just fine so I'm a bit confused about what I'm doing wrong.

I have the same problem, reported and people gave me some kind of answers in this thread, https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=6020.msg83018#msg83018

..but I for one am waiting for an idiot-proof fix. (any updates on this anyone?)

Thanks for the info! 
I think I'll wait as well... which is a shame because sending BTSX is so much fun with these transaction speeds.   8)

I just wanted to update this thread to say that importing the Multibit wallet doesn't work; however, it's very easy to import your private key using the provided file.  Just open the file and copy-and-paste your key into the "Import Private Key" line and VOILA! 

I was silly not to do this sooner!

I tried this but there is an "Error parsing WIF private key".   I entered " file:///C:/Users.....lemons.key "  with rescan blockchain checked.  There was no password protection on the .key file either

How did you get around this?
