General Discussion / Help Import Old Bitshares Exported Wallet into New Bitshares 2 Light

« on: June 26, 2016, 09:23:02 pm »

I exported my wallet information from old bitshares. I have downloaded and installed bitshares2-light (without deleting previous....was I supposed to delete previous before installing new version?)

I'm getting "Application initialization issues"

Then, not sure what happened, but it suddenly started working. Not sure what happened. But now when I follow the directions to import the wallet I exported from the previous version (I could see my balance in the old version so I skipped the step it said I could skip if I saw my balance) I'm having a new problem. I'm attempting to import the bitshares wallet json via import a BTS 0.9.3C Key Export and it says "Please use a BTS 1.0 Wallet export keys file instead"

Why would it ask me that if the button says to import a BTS 0.9.3C Key Export?

Please help, thanks!

BitShares PTS / Bitshares PTS to PTS on Mac.....so confused

« on: July 11, 2015, 01:26:07 am »

I'm so very confused.
for starters, I'm totally confused on the difference between BitsharesX and Bitshares PTS and Bitshares 2.0. I see discussion of each in this forum, so naturally that's confusing.

I have a separate thread where I'm trying to figure out how to bounce from BitsharesX to Bitshares (the newer wallet). But in this thread I'm specifically asking first how I can move my coins from Bitshares PTS to the new wallet which is just named PTS. I was hoping it would be as simple as swapping the wallet.dat file, but confusingly, instead of a wallet.dat file in the new PTS client, there is a wallet folder inside of which there is no wallet.dat file.

Please help!

If anyone also can help me migrate from BitsharesX to Bitshares, that would be dandy too

Technical Support / Move from Old BitsharesX to new Bitshares Client for Mac

« on: July 11, 2015, 01:05:03 am »

So I was told I can import my old BitsharesX wallet into the new Bitshares wallet. But I have no idea how to do this. Are there instructions somewhere?

So I downloaded the new Bitshares client on my mac. I can see in the dmg that there are two items: the Bitshares Wallet, and an include folder.

(1) Do I drag both the Bitshares Wallet and the Include folder into the Applications Folder?

(2) Do I then use the old wallet folder as a replacement for the new one (assuming its structured the same)?

(3) Is it then safe to delete the old BitsharesX file from the application folder?

Thanks in advance!

Technical Support / Trying to Update New OSX Wallet

« on: May 09, 2015, 03:57:47 pm »

I'm trying to update the new wallet on mac osx. When I dragged the new client into the applications folder, instead of replacing the old file it added a new one since they had different file names.

how do I proceed with the installation if they have different names so as to not lose my coins?

Is the following correct?

1) Backup Existing Wallet
2) Delete the older version of Bitshares that is already installed
3) Install new version with new name (still points to blockchain/wallet in same locations?)

thanks in advance!
