I tried to get my private keys from a paper wallet,i imported wallet to armory.But when i tried to view private keys they are not visible.
I followed this exact method https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=351099.msg3763524#msg3763524

But at step 4 i can't see my private key(Yes Kept tick mark to private key at step 3)

Please,what am i doing wrong? I am trying to get private keys coz my internet is slow i can't download whole blockchain.

So nobody on bitcointalk can help with this?

Maybe you can explain more clearly what the problem is? I don't really understand what you did/didn't do.

1:I imported wallet into armory(I just downloaded the armory and i don't have bitcoin client installed on my pc coz i don't want to download all the blockchain)
2:i imported from paper wallet,
wallet version:1.35c
backup type:single-sheet (unencrypted)
and wallet successfully restored
3:i want to get private keys,
so i went into "wallet properties".
clicked on "backup this wallet"
clicked on "see other backup options"
Selected "export key lists"
and then a window came,there i selected private keys but below private keys are not visible,i can't see them

Do i have to make armory to online to see the private keys?

You must be in “Advanced” or “Expert” usermode to use offline wallets.  “Advanced” is the default mode when you first install Armory, but some users change to “Standard” to simplify the interface.  You can switch modes from the main window menu under “User”

I tried to view them in all 3 modes but i can't see private keys.I even created new wallet and tried on them but still private keys are not visible.

Someone is free to correct me but my limited experience with armory, before creating my own method for making deterministic wallets (I felt Armory backups were not secure for my needs, because of how obvious it is what they are, or at least how obvious I expect Base58 strings and four-letter series to be in the future) was that you have to have been completely synced at some point? And that you'll need to sync before going offline? Idk. I'm sure the armory dev will come to your aid soon, but I've seen this for a few hours now. If it's importing your backup without an error, I wouldn't panic yet. If this is still an issue I'll be a Good Samaritan when I wake up and take a look. I'm scheduled for a nap and can't delay it any longer.

did you try unticking the private key hex box,

im sure their would be a youtube video of it, just search for armory, be sure to let us know what it was  :)

also try looking at the thread you posted again and follow the steps and read what everyone posted below

I tried almost everything but can't get private keys,so i will try to make armory online.It will take few of days but i think its the only option.

After making armory to online i hope i can send my bitcoins out of this...

did you watch this video

change the setting to 144p is your struggling with bandwidth

Go in Expert mode, and make sure you have clicked "Include Unused (Address Pool)"

With the options you chose, you are only displaying visible addresses, which you can reveal one at a time clicking on "Receive Bitcoins" in the Wallet's Properties Dialog.

This worked thanks man  ;D
