You might be able to fix the red circle problem by choosing another server for electrum to connect to. Try following the instructions quoted below to change the server your electrum wallet connects to.

Try clicking tools in the menu bar at the top, then network. A little box should pop up. Uncheck the checkbox with "select server automatically in it, then select a different server to the present one from the list. Finally, click the OK button and your wallet should resync through the new server...

Look for the Google authenticator app on your mobile. If you can't find it you can restore your wallet from its wallet words/seed and choose not to use 2FA for your restored wallet. If you do that you will be able to send the BTC currently in your wallet without requiring the app on your mobile.

There are instructions for restoring your wallet from its wallet words/seed at this link.

I Have Google one, Authy and another named OTP APP...

I have 3 on Google one, Local bitcoins, BTCJam and trustedcoin.com.......

Is the trusted.com that relates to Electrum hd ?

Not had chance to try above, triying re-synching the network for old skool Multibit, it's still going after 5 hours !!!

Going to do the same with Multibit...

ONLY thing i have done different is that i switched a few miners from Slush to Kano ??

Thanks for reply, much appreciated....If you could follow this it would be a great help !!!

Cheers

Thanks Tec99, i've been trying to put BTC into LBC, usually takes 30 mins max, it then stated 80 hours as a it was a low fee trabsaction (i have not altered anything for YEARS).

It's been on 30 mins now for the last 6 hours !!!!

Could i post the transaction on here and perhaps someone could see something wrong ?

Thanks for the help !!!

This is a solution, but beware there are some security dangers when you run a wallet online without max security measures.  If you decide to go the SEED restore route, which is a great solution, you might want to create a wallet from that SEED on a cold computer and then setup a watching wallet on your online machine.  Once you get your 2FA abilities restored you can return the full wallet function to the online machine.  BTW - I never recommend using a fully functional wallet online without a hardware wallet hiding the private keys.  That is my feelings but I run conservatively all the way.

Try restarting electrum after you switch to a different server.

If that doesn't work try exiting electrum, deleting its config file (shown below), then restarting it up again. For portable electrum the config file is in the electrum_data folder.

For the installed version click the windows start button, then copy and paste the line of text below into the windows search box, then press the enter key to open the electrum folder containing its config file.

%appdata%\Electrum

This is what the windows search box should look like.

Delete the config file and restart electrum.

The bitcointalk image proxy won't show those images, but it shows images uploaded to https://postimage.io/.

I tried submitting those transactions to the viabtc mining pool's transaction accelerator, but it's over its hourly limit. Keep trying to submit the transaction IDs below every hour until it accepts them. Afterwards the viabtc mining pool will include your transactions in the next block it mines, and get them confirmed.

The Bitcoin network's very busy today, normally you wouldn't need to use the transaction accelerator.


edit

I tried submitting your transactions to the accelerator again, and it accepted them all. You don't need to do anything now. Viabtc will include your transactions in the next block it mines, and confirm them for you, provided no other pool confirms them first.

All your transactions were confirmed in a block mined by ViaBTC at 02:15 UTC time. Does either of your wallets show them as confirmed now?

if both multibit and electrum have difficulty connecting to the net then it's likely you have a firewall or antivirus software of some sort blocking connections.

also calm down and stop with the exclamation marks.

I deleted my firewall/antivirus, they did come through 23 hours later.

Plus the price was u another £10/BTC.

Thanks guys, and no more exclamation marks.

Cheers
