Title: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 01:17:58 AM Thank you in advance to anyone who can help. I am running Bitcoin on a Mac, I have 1 connection and around 700 khash/s.
I have tried to receive bitcoin 2x in two separate transactions to two separate addresses and they don't show up, even after hours. I am sure the sender sent the bitcoins already, and the addresses were the ones supplied by the program, I just did copy/paste. The program says 126428 blocks, 0 transactions. I am generating. Anyone have any ideas what is going wrong? THANK YOU! Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 02:07:27 AM It still says 126428 blocks. Can anyone help? I will pay 1 BTC to anyone who helps me figure this all out. Thanks.
Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:10:54 AM bitcoinfrenzy,
The reason why your balance isn't showing up is because you don't have the full blockchain(current number at the time of writing is 127078). Try connecting to fallback nodes and once blockchain is up to date I'm sure you'll see the coins https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 02:12:03 AM Yes, but how do I do this on a mac? I don't have xcode, just running the program.

Anyone have any ideas what is going wrong? THANK YOU! The current block count is 127079 according to blockexplorer, so try disabling any firewalls (if not, restart your router) and if that doesn't work, delete all the blocks you've downloaded and try again (ONLY the blocks, not your wallet, else you will lose your money) and try redownloading them, they mightave become corrupted or something :) PM me if you need any help. Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:17:33 AM Open up terminal and copy and paste:

Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 02:18:56 AM I get: -bash: /Applications/Bitcoin.app/contents/macos/bitcoin: No such file or directory
I don't have xcode, just the regular program running. Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:20:01 AM You bitcoin client is in a different location. Can you tell me where you put your Bitcoin.app?
You don't need xcode Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:25:16 AM If you're not sure, copy and paste into terminal:
Code: sudo /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb and then: Code: locate Bitcoin Please post the output of the second command Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 02:25:35 AM Ok, I see, I put it in Applications and now it opened up in Terminal with your command, but it doesn't seem to be looking any better. Still says 1 connection, and number of blocks still the same. Also, can't click on generate now because it's opened from Terminal. Anything else I should be doing? Thanks!!
Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: SomeoneWeird on May 27, 2011, 02:30:04 AM Ok, I see, I put it in Applications and now it opened up in Terminal with your command, but it doesn't seem to be looking any better. Still says 1 connection, and number of blocks still the same. Also, can't click on generate now because it's opened from Terminal. Anything else I should be doing? Thanks!! Don't click on generate on the bitcoin client, that miner is greatly outdated and only uses the CPU, get a proper GPU miner for mac. Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:30:29 AM Sorry my mistake. It probably didn't run because of faulty syntax.
Close your client. Try: Code: cd /Applications/ and then: Code: Bitcoin.app/contents/macos/bitcoin -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 Let me know what happens. It should start downloading the blockchain and you should see that number increasing. Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 02:35:34 AM I ran the new command, same thing, it opens in terminal but says 1 connection and the block number is not increasing.
Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:37:02 AM Are you behind a router? If so, can you open and forward port 8333 onto your computer?
edit: also if you leave it for a while and it has at least one connection it should find other peers Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 02:38:23 AM Sorry for being dumb, but (1) how would I know if I'm behind a router, and (2) how would I fwd the port? Isn't that already selected in the preferences?
Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:42:50 AM Well it depend how you connect to the internet. If you connect to a router and then router lets you connect to the exchange(that's a typical home setup) then in order to allow better connectivity with the network you could log into your router and open/forward port 8333 to your specific IP address.
I'm not sure about the mac client, but windows client has a UPnP feature which automates this process. Try looking under "Preferences". You should tick a box that says "Map ports using UPnP" or something similar Then restart the client Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 02:47:48 AM In options I have "Connect through socks4 proxy: Proxy IP 127.0.0.1 Port:8333"
That's already selected. What should I do at this point? The number of blocks has stayed the same for days. Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:49:37 AM You should deselect that, close the client and then:
Code: cd /Applications/ Code: Bitcoin.app/contents/macos/bitcoin -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 edit: the "Proxy IP 127.0.0.1 Port:8333" option is there if you want to run it via Tor or other networks that utilize localhost Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 02:53:12 AM Wow!!! 6 Connections, and the blocks are moving fast. THANK YOU. Bitcoins showing up now too. I will send 1 BTC to you soon hopefully. Thanks so much.
Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 02:54:39 AM No problem. Once it connects to few more peers it should remember them and in the future you should be able to connect to the network just by clicking on the bitcoin icon
edit: you should still look into how to open/forward port 8333 Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 03:37:54 AM Ok, will do. Just sent you the BTC. Thanks again for all your help. I wrote up a step-by-step guide that will hopefully help people with the same problem in the future: http://www.bitcoinfrenzy.com/2011/05/bitcoin-help-for-mac-users.html (http://www.bitcoinfrenzy.com/2011/05/bitcoin-help-for-mac-users.html).
Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 03:43:43 AM Glad to help.
Thank you for the coin Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: cypherdoc on May 27, 2011, 03:30:55 PM No problem. Once it connects to few more peers it should remember them and in the future you should be able to connect to the network just by clicking on the bitcoin icon edit: you should still look into how to open/forward port 8333 on a Mac, if u launch the Bitcoin app from the Dock, what terminal command would u use to find it: still use cd desktop or something else? Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 03:32:07 PM Sorry cypherdoc, I don't understand your question. What are you trying to achieve?

"(11) Once your blocks are downloaded and connections established, you can quit the Bitcoin application and Terminal, and then reopen Bitcoin without Terminal in future times, and your Bitcoin application should remember the connections." this is not true. at least for me. u have to go thru the whole process each time. Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: cypherdoc on May 27, 2011, 03:39:29 PM Sorry cypherdoc, I don't understand your question. What are you trying to achieve? yeah, that question didn't make sense. is there a way to open terminal and have all your command lines pre-saved and in place so all u have to do is then hit enter? Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: bitcoinfrenzy on May 27, 2011, 03:46:37 PM Ok, will do. Just sent you the BTC. Thanks again for all your help.

Ok, good to know. It does work for me, I wonder if anyone knows what the problem is. Does anyone have any idea why cypherdoc needs to do this? Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help! Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 27, 2011, 04:09:49 PM cypherdoc,
Open Terminal and type: Code: cd /bin/ Code: sudo nano mybtc Once new window opens, copy and paste the following: Code: cd /Applications/ then press ctrl+x and when prompted if you want to save choose yes Next: Code: sudo chmod +x mybtc Then close the terminal. Open it again and type Code: mybtc This is not the most elegant way to achieve what you trying to do, but I hope this will serve as a temporary measure. Someone more knowledgeable in OS X should be along soon. There should be a way to specify switches when you click on the Bitcoin icon in dock or start it from Applications. Let me know how it goes Title: Re: Bitcoin on Mac Having Problems - Please Help!
