...I assume that I used the account model as I can actually see the coins as well as the address (that I created with the offline tool mentioned under your link) here: http://bitshares-explorer.io/#/accounts/hsb-wallet4

So I do know the account name, the address and the private key. I was under the assumption to also know the password but openledger.io does not accept it for any reason. Still my understanding is that I should not need the password in case I have the private key!?

Any additional help appreciated and rewarded!

Hey Guys,
hoping anybody can help me here - thanks a lot in advance for any kind of feedback.

I created a paper-wallet for BTS based on this explanation a while ago. Created address, saved address & private key, create account on openledger.io and replaced the 'active key' with the address that I created. Then I sent my BTS to this account. The latter worked fine as I can see the balance in the account on http://bitshares-explorer.io/#/accounts/hsb-wallet4.

No I am trying to get access to the coins. Openledger.io is not accepting the password that I noted for my account. Pretty sure it is correct but anyhow it is not working. So I thought I can create a new account and simply import my private key. However, when I import the private key for the address mentioned for above account openledger tells me that my balance is zero.

Does anybody have an idea what I might be doing wrong here?
Thanks a lot for everybody who spends some time to help me here. For sure willing to send him/her some of my BTS in case we are able to restore my funds together.

Regards,
Hendrik
