Title: My btc has never received by my windows wallet -- please, help me
Post by: ammy009 on February 07, 2014, 09:14:37 PM
Today, I made a transaction from my blockchain.info wallet. I sent 0.50146 BTC from my blockchain.info wallet to my windows qt wallet. Then it's now about 3 hours gone, but there is no trace of my bitcoin in my windows wallet. Here is my transaction details ---

https://blockchain.info/tx/79c9b68b585843b18d9d29aa5aa1a6ebf8cfb3e1233ee4ce8aeefb3aadc47a3c (https://blockchain.info/tx/79c9b68b585843b18d9d29aa5aa1a6ebf8cfb3e1233ee4ce8aeefb3aadc47a3c)

I checked my address and it's ok... transaction made ... I found it on blockchain ... but there is no trace in my wallet  ( it's not showing unconfirmed in my wallet )

What's the problem ? May I loose my coins ??

Please, help me..

Is your QT client synced?

No worries.
If you see that address in your qt wallet, your bitcoin is completely safe.

The tx is shown as unconfirmed probably because you are still downloading the block data (~16GB).

Try to do a -rescan then.

No need to re-download the blockchain.
You can just start your bitcoin-qt with the argument -rescan.

If you are using Linux, use "./Bitcoin-Qt -rescan"
If you are using Windows, make a shortcut for your bitcoin-qt.exe and append " -rescan" to the end of the target field.

Sounded like an issue of rescanning - restarting the client perhaps?
