Its probably because the filesystem of the old windows (NTFS) is not allowing you access.

You can try this howto http://osxdaily.com/2013/10/02/enable-ntfs-write-support-mac-os-x/

And if that is not helping try using NTFS-3G for Mac OS with MacFUSE.

i need full member accountt i will pay for it

Heads up, buying an account will give you most likely might give you neg trust on that new account. So if you are trying to elude your bad reputation here, buying an account will not resolve the issue. could be just a waste of money. see here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=610058.0

Well nobody will know the new account you buy.

When i was new to bitcoin and joined this forum i started spamming on different boards to earn my first bitcoin,due to this i got negative rating.on those days i was 15 years old
Now i am grown uo

Age is not the matter here.

i know what is good or bad.Now i leaved spamming,

No you didnt. You PM spammed one of those who gave you negative trust. Did you really think this would make things any better?

but i got negative trust rating.I hav also apologized from all members.

Should i kick off?

Even this thread is a spam. You allready have another one discussing the very same topic.

After my lose all my coins on localbitcoins i found what happen. Was an XSS attack made by trader/seller he was used  XSS atack after/when he release bitcoins from escrow. After that coins was send in new wallet to BTC-E.com account. So i will never use localbitcoins.com again and never do business
online. face - face cash in hand and offline wallet's is GOD of security. FU LOCALBITCOINS they know about this bug since 2013 and still working till today.

I call FUD.

Which other URL was involved in the XSS attacK?
How do you know it was a XSS in the first place?
How do you know the localbitcoins knows about this bug since 2013?
How can your coins be gone after release from escrow?
Thats exactly what escrow is for, you only release the coins when the other side did their part of the deal.

OP seems like one of those guys who lie through their teeth and believe every word they say. also, there's something about people who don't space after their punctuations that make me think "scammer." likely because they are foreign, possibly from a nigerian country.

Did you just argue OP is a scammer because he might possible be from a different country, which you deducted from OPs punctuation errors? It also sounded like you just called ~170 Million people scammer.


Well, after i looked on your trust rating i think nobody will remove their trust rating, you tried to scam users so this is what you deserve Wink

that was my past acts,when i was newbie and not matured.

You should tell that each person that gave you negative trust directly. Give them a believeable example of how you changed. I doubt any of those are beyond reason and will consider their rating. Maybe they can give you task to redeem yourself.

So you CAN import the public key for an address into a desktop wallet WITHOUT importing the private key?
Ok got it.

This depends on the wallet. They have to be able to "watch" addresses. Afaik bitcoin core does not support this yet. I know armory and blockchain do.


Oh....just curious...what's the difference if you download bitaddress.org from github or if you just navigate to the bitaddress.org webpage in your browser and save the page, then use it offline?

Probably none. But the version on github might be a different version as the one online.
10107  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Nothing showing up in blockchain.info or blockexplorer.com? on: May 20, 2014, 04:52:19 PM

Correct - while they are listed in Cex's own records those records are not officially recognised by the network so until you withdraw to an address you will never see them.

Is that true for most of the exchanges that offer web wallets like Btc-e, Cryptsy, Coinbase, Kraken, etc.?

Yes, they usually have several addresses where you can deposit funds and severall others where they store your coins (usually offline) savely. While you only do transactions within the same exchange there is no need to use the blockchain, it would just be a waste in fees and blockchain space.

Think about it like this: Lets say banks need to transfer money to other banks by transporting physical gold/fiat from Bank A to B. This would be the equivalent of you send money to me. You are your own bitcoin bank, I am my own bitcoin bank. The transportation is done via the blockchain and the p2p network.
Now, bank A is not a single person, but has 3 customers. It has a nice spreadsheet where it writes down which customer has howmuch money. If customer 1 wants to send money to customer 2 the bank can just change the spreadsheet. Sending physical gold/fiat from A to A makes no sense. Same with big bitcoin exchanges / casinos / etc. they store the coins somewhere safe and handle all internal transactions via an internal database. Only when the coins leave the company they make a public transaction on the blockchain.

I would suggest you create a wallet using actual software (ie Electrum/Multibit/Qt) rather than web wallets - securing web wallets can be a pain. If you're using bitaddress.org download a copy from GitHub and use it offline to create your addresses and then import them into a client. If I were to recommend one it would be Electrum - you get a lot of security and features (offline tx signing comes to mind) without having to download the whole blockchain.

Let's say I download a copy of bitaddress.org from Github and use it offline to create an address. But I don't import it anywhere. In fact, it remains completely unknown, I just wrote it down by hand on some scratch paper. Then I use that address to send myself money from my web wallet....would the bitcoins be real then and would the address be added to the blockchain? Or it wont be on the blockchain until I import it?? Doesn't importing an address into a client also mean risking that the address can be compromised too?

Yes the coins would be real and they would be added to the blockchain, because the blockchain stores all the transactions. If you send coins somewhere you do this via the blockchain and you have to publicly announce where you send the coins. So you cant keep your public address secret when you want to send coins there. Importing an address (e.g. the public key) is no problem. Importing a private key (thats the one that allows you to spend the coins) can be a risk. This however depends on where you import the private key and how you do this. The worst way I can imagine atm is importing a private key into an online wallet service via an unencrypted connection. If you however do this locally, use encryption right after importing the priv. key and use it only to sweep the address, you should be fine. Assuming the computer you use is not compromised.

You should really start reading everything. It is not even clear that OP lost anything but rather missunderstood who localbitcoins and wallets work.
10109  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin Core Wallet help! on: May 20, 2014, 04:39:53 PM
I recently got the newer version of Bitcoin Core and it worked for 2 days and then it stopped working saying something with the network or something was wrong.

If you want help you should post the entire error message. "Something with network" is a bit vague.

Need help fast before I do any thing and also any thing to speed the sync of lite coin wallet?

You could use a "light wallet" e.g. electrum lite. If you want a wallet with the full blockchain you can use the bootstrap.dat https://litecoin.info/Bootstrap.dat
but if your bottleneck is the internet connection this will not make it faster.
10110  Other / Meta / Re: Can someone please breakdown the trust system and how it is tallied? on: May 19, 2014, 04:41:13 PM
Hey all, I searched around the forum, and found some threads on the trust system, but not a breakdown of how it is actually tallied.   If someone has a direct link to a thread which outlines it, could you please post it here?

I know that the numbers on the far right are a tally of the positive vs. negative trust that is posted to your trust profile page.   I am trying to figure out


1) What is the number on the far left, and how is it calculated?
2)  Is it more heavily weighted on larger BTC transactions
3) Is the untrusted feedback counted in your overall tally?


Thanks in advance...

You really have to use a printer that doesn't save cache of the printed files. They can be retrieved if you discard it.

Either that, flush the cache  usually there is a way - even with the big office copying machines) or use a paperwallet that requires you to write a small code by hand which makes the rest useless. I dont remember off the top of my head which generator allowed that though.
10112  Other / Meta / Re: Why??? on: May 19, 2014, 08:18:02 AM
Dear administration, why is my ip address is blacklisted, I create one? I no-hacker, I'm just a player - came flipped 5 times and passed to other sites. So what I have been blacklisted? For the fact that I won a coin 1 time, all the time, although I have on the site for two weeks. I beg to explain!

PS. Sorry if there are errors, I do not know English, translated by Google. I hope for your understanding and support.


Afaik there are no IP bans. Makes no sense anyway. What is the message you get when you try to login?

If english is a problem for you, maybe post in the subforum for your language.

4. email the encrypted private keys to myself after writing the password to decrypt down on paper
-snip-

Why would you buy an extra phone if you just mail the keys around the internet anyway. True they encrypted, but you can generate an offline wallet with any old pc, no need for a new phone.

Id just get a script (preferably from github) that does the key generation for you.
#1 Download script
#2 verify download
#3 copy via (new) usb stick to old PC running a live linux from CD/DVD
#4 generate keys
#5 print
#6 keep printed keys safe
10114  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: School Blocks Bitcoin Port, is there a fix? on: May 19, 2014, 05:06:05 AM
How about a network that filters based on protocol? I've had times where only HTTP (and HTTPS) traffic was allowed, and neither Tor nor SSH to a server running on port 443 worked. I also tried ICMP tunneling and OpenVPN, but to no avail. Usually I just use my phone's connection in those situations, but it can get annoying at times.

If they do DPI on the router you will have a hard time tricking that. But afaik tor can do this.

Afaik, Stunna has someone helping and it takes them ~2 days. So we are talking about ~32 workhours, which to me sounds enough to check every post at least quickly. Not sure if this is actually done, but its certainly not impossible or an inhumane task.
10117  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Like to know about BTC mining on: May 18, 2014, 01:21:50 PM
less that 1$/Ghz

That makes no sense. Even if you are talking about 1$/GHASH/s. 1$ for what? Electricity? Hardwarecosts? Shipping?
1$/GHASH/s in hardwarecost. Then you will probably get ROI right now.


Dont know, maybe the machine eats 10TW/s and thats why its so cheap... Thats what I said. You have to consider several things when you want to calculate profit.

Most of the replies on the forum on this subject, points to "No"

Have you ever wondered what someone would saym if you walked into the "Klondike" years ago, and you wanted to go stake your claim to get gold.

They would all tell you, it's not worth it.

Consider that "mining" any currency, comes with some competition, like in real world.

If the money is good, and there is limited amounts, you would lie, would you not?

But this is just my opinion, and I might be wrong.

I just do'nt believe anything I hear, when money is involved.

Proof is in the Bitcoins ;->

True, you shouldn't follow others' advice blindly.

You could use any mining profit calculators out there to check the profitability yourself.
Or, you could check the bitcoin wiki to understand how difficulty works and check the mining speculation section here to build your own profit calculator (could be done easily in Excel).

I am pretty sure all these will also point you to "No" Tongue


No, no, no. We are all still mining with our old laptops CPU/GPU and our 336MH/s ASICs USB Sticks and make loads of coins. But we dont want you to know this, so we tell you to stay away from mining, because "electricity" and "ROI" and all them fancy words.

Got a confirmation email from btc-e and did that.

What does the confirmation email say?

Now my balance at btc-e is 0 but I havent received any funds in my payeer.com account.

Did you contact btc-e support? Also how long ago was this? Withdrawal might take some time.
