Title: Empty Armory wallet after restore --- Help is needed
Post by: respid on January 04, 2017, 10:15:42 PM
Hello,
I'm a former user of Armory, About 2 years ago i used it to store my Bitcoins.
Recently i tried to restore my paper backup and it seems that the wallet is empty and not shows me my public address, so i can't even track my bitcoins on the blockchain.
It's shows "Restored - <correct Wallet name>" but under "Addresses in Wallet" the list is empty.
I created a few new addresses but they are all new and empty.
I need some support :/ it's very important for me. Thanks in advanced!

Try the following on your restored wallet and see if it works:

[1] go to "Wallet Properties/Receive Bitcoins" and generate address which will then show under "Address". The first address generated should be the one with your funds in it (will show its "#Tx" and "Balance") unless there were addresses originally generated before it; in which case keep generating ("Receive Bitcoins") until you see the specific address you want (with your funds in it)

[2] for each wallet in Armory (including the one you want), go to "Wallet Properties/Belongs to:" and check "This wallet is mine" then click OK. This will include the available funds in all your wallets in the total balance displayed on the main screen.

Good Luck!
