you can import your private key to blockchain.info, mycelium or electrum so you can use the coins you recieved from one of your addresses on bitcoin core :)

syncing takes a lot of time. you can download a snapshot of the blockchain via torrent, should make the process faster. just google it

you can also download the entire blockchain from a trusted source and put it in the correct folder, it should take less if you have a good connection, while syncing does not rely only on that, but on a good ssd and cpu

i hope that people nowadays are not using mechanic hd, because ssd should be the standard...

Export your private keys as it says here : http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/4203/how-can-i-export-the-private-key-for-an-address-from-the-satoshi-client then make an account on Blockchain.info and import them there and you are ready to go . Make sure to not keep big amounts on online wallets because they are less secure .

It is actually reindexing, not resyncing, and reindexing takes significantly less time than syncing does. You could just wait a few hours, or as people have said, export the private keys and import them into another wallet.

Don't be impatient. $30 is alot, and you dont want to risk it with the insecurity of an online wallet.

Just import your private key to the some of supporting wallets and save yourself a trouble! Downloading blockchain once is a pain in the a**, twice I don't even want to think about!

Sure.

Export the private key from the wallet, and import it into a wallet that allows importing of private keys.
