Title: cannot input bitaddress.org private key into Electrum 1.9.5 Post by: cspeter8 on December 06, 2013, 11:29:04 AM On Windows
Today I have imported the private key into Electrum and am getting 'The following inputs could not be imported'. This seems to not be just an issue with electrum - I had the same issue with a public wallet I created at blockchain.info. I have spent some funds in the past from bitaddress.org paper wallets before without issues, so I considered them trustworthy. Can anyone shed light on this, or private message me as appropriate? thanks Edit: I just scanned the qr code of the private key on this paper wallet into a qr code readeer and copy/pasted that into electrum private key import and also received the same error. This was to rule out all possibility of transcription error. Title: Re: cannot input bitaddress.org private key into Electrum 1.9.5 Post by: Martijnvdc on December 06, 2013, 08:42:47 PM Hello,
I have contacted the OP to inspect the issue. He was able to import the private keys on blockchain.info just fine. He then gave me one of the private keys, which imported perfectly fine in both Electrum 1.9.2 and 1.9.5 on Linux. However, when trying to import the private key on the Windows client 1.9.5, it fails. Can someone else using Windows 7/8 please try to import the following private key to see if you can reproduce this? 5JB5KGpo2MeSgkKbRJrwoNVQPViuohZYa8NiURWqQt3bdcEsF6k Title: Re: cannot input bitaddress.org private key into Electrum 1.9.5 Post by: flatfly on December 06, 2013, 11:25:21 PM Hello, I have contacted the OP to inspect the issue.
