Can anyone help with this please?

I have tried to send some coins to another address and I am being told there are insufficient funds, even though there is. So far I have tried:

1. Backup wallet and reinstall the latest wallet, resync everything and then copy the wallet back to the Appdata folder - Made no difference
2. Ran -rescan from command line - Made no difference
3. Ran -repairwallet from command line - Made no difference
4. Ran walletpassphrase from console with the password and timout - Made no difference
5. Tried same process on Windows 7 pc, Windows 8 pc and on a Mac

The wallet seems to be stuck on staking and I cannot change that state to send any coins

hum.. look at your wallet "balance" field...:  dont you have a great "0.00" ?
overwise i'm not english native , but what does mean "stake" field in this case ?  ::)
stake

I have 238 coins but they are stuck in stake mode :(

The stake means that this coin is a proof of stake coin. This means that he probably has minted coins and thus they are in the stake field.

Correct me if I'm wrong, since I don't know much about proof of stake, but wouldn't the coins in the stake field mean that they were coins that you minted from your stake in the network? If so, these coins need to mature, and you need to wait some time in order to spend them. I believe that this is similar to the 100 confirmations required for Bitcoin from a coinbase transaction to be spent.

You aren't wrong... that's exactly why OP can't send any coins... because they are all tied up in the stake.  OP, you need to wait until those staked coins have matured (typically 101 confirmations).  Then you'll be able to spend them.

By the way, this entire thread belongs in the alt-coins boards...

coins on stake cannot be spent, u have to remove them from staking before u can spend.
try Start your wallet with -reservebalance=9999999

yeah .. now that's make sense.  ;)
