Title: Old install of QT client version 0.6.2 not synching blockchain Post by: marhjan on February 26, 2014, 09:22:00 AM Ok - I use Armory client and Blockchain.info for all my current bitcoin needs. However I have an old wallet (QT 'satoshi' client version 0.6.2) that hasn't been synched with the blockchain since sometime in 2012. My donation address (in my sig) is in this wallet and has a whopping balance of 0.05995btc - which is nothing earth shattering, but I would like access to it. I also suspect there may be one or more other addresses in said wallet that may also have trivial amounts of btc.
HERE IS MY PROBLEM - When I startup the client it attempts to synch the blockchain and gets to a point where it has 77.788 blocks to go and just stalls out. I have tried this multiple times and it keeps getting stuck. With this being the case I am unable to open the Debug window and do a dumpprivkey command. (I'm explaining this to show that yes I've done a bit of research and understand the basics of what I'm trying to do.) Is there any possible way for me to obtain the private key(s) from this wallet and import them to Blockchain.info?? I really appreciate any help/advice. Thanks Title: Re: Old install of QT client version 0.6.2 not synching blockchain Post by: ivroer on February 26, 2014, 09:51:41 AM Is there any possible way for me to obtain the private key(s) from this wallet and import them to Blockchain.info??

You're probably getting to a fork and it won't download blocks from after that.
