addresses aren't accounts. there are no accounts in bitcoin. don't fixate on individual addresses. your electrum wallet consists of many addresses and you look at the wallet as a whole not at individual addresses. you will find your wallet balance in the bottom left of the electrum window and your transaction history on the history tab.

Sorry you are right. I tried it myself and it only displays one private key. Even restoring from the xprvs+xpub. There is a risky way to get your address specific private keys. You can download this webpage and run it offline: https://bip32jp.github.io/english/Enter your xprv in "BIP32 Extended Key" and scroll down to "Derivation path" and set it to custom. If your address is the first in the list of address in electrum then you enter "m/0/0" (without quotes) in the "custom path" field, if it is the second then enter "m/0/1" and so on. You'll have to do that for each of the xprvs. I'm still not sure how this will help you claim your funds. p2sh addresses also involve a redeem script which you can create with the createmultisig command i gave you before. |

I restored it from my seed, so now it shows "This wallet is was restored from seed, and it contains two master private keys. Therefore, two-factor-authentication is disabled." when I click Trustedcoin.
what happens when you right click on an address and select private key? you should get two address specific private keys. |

Mhm, in my restored wallet it only shows one.. I'll see if I can find the other one. If anyone else has ideas, please shoot  when recovering your wallet you have to choose not to continue using trusted coin as a cosigner when it asks you that question. did you do that? |

you don't have just one private key. you have 3 behind each address. you need 2 out of 3 to spend money from an address. when you restore your wallet it will contain 2 out of 3 and they will be displayed if you right click on an address and choose private key.
but ultimately it depends on what software you are using to sweep these addresses. does it support multisig addresses? if it doesn't then your tokens are lost.

I do have 2 out of 3 master private keys now, so in theory it should be possible.
On what site would I combine these master private keys to generate the multisig addresses?
I have generated addresses out of both of them seperately, but haven't found a site where I can put in multiple master private keys yet.
It's worth a try for sure.
When you restore your wallet in electrum it generates the multisig address. Does that not help? You can also generate the address on the command line using the createmultisig command. electrum help createmultisig
You will need any combination of the 3 public or private keys behind that address (the address specific ones not the master ones). You can right click on the address in your restored wallet and get most of that info there. |

i copy it from the area it appear on the electrum wallet and paste it to confirm and give me the same problem.
how did you do this? electrum doesn't allow you to copy paste that. did you check the wordlist that pooya posted above? are all the words in your seed in that list and spelled correctly? where did you download tails os from? what website? |

Hi, I restored a wallet in Electrum by using the private key but I cant click on Master Public Keys because its greyed out and I dont know why, also I cant sign a transaction with a watching only wallet because theres no send button, please help
master public keys are a feature of deterministic wallets. a wallet with imported private keys is not a deterministic wallet. a wallet with imported private keys is not a watch-only wallet. you should be able to sign messages with such a wallet. however if it is truly a watch-only wallet with no private keys then you can't sign messages because you need the private key for that. |

these are multisig addresses with more than one private key behind them. you only have one in your wallet. another one is with your co-signer trustedcoin. the third is encoded in the seed mnemonic that you were shown during the wallet creation process and which you were supposed to write down.
we've had a few posts here from users wanting to claim various alt-coin "air drops" i.e. altcoins handed out to existing bitcoin holders. they've had to generate signatures using 2 out of the 3 private keys behind their multisig addresses and then submit those on websites. Is something like this possible for your ICO?

I have only addresses start with "3" in Electrum.
How can I create address starts with "1"?
You must have created a multi-signature wallet as multi-signature addresses start with a 3. You will have to create a new normal wallet if you want addresses that begin with a 1. The electrum documentation explains multi-signature wallets. http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/multisig.htmlNo, I didn't. I have the default wallet. you have either a multisig or 2fa wallet. what does it say in the window title bar? default_Wallet is just the file name. the wallet type will be given in the title bar too. you need to create a new standard wallet which you can do by following this guide: https://bitcoinelectrum.com/creating-an-electrum-wallet/ . |

It helps if you break down your post into sentences.

Hello,
Im new to electrum. I sent $250usd to one of my electrum addresses but only $98usd showed up. Did anyone else have this problem? My fee settings were set to dynamic fees. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
you don't get charged money to receive bitcoin. the sender gets charged transaction fees on the order of a couple dollars worth but that is usually not deducted from amount sent to you (sender bears tx fees). that money goes to miners. electrum itself does not charge you anything. it's opensource software and you can go look at the source code if you like: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrumin the past when we've had people complaining about stuff like this it's because they bought bitcoins from shady websites that scammed them. is that what you did? |

On the send tab you enter the amount the recipient should get.

Ok what is a live Linux and an airtight computer? Live linux is a linux distribution that runs from a DVD, USB or other removable drive and which does not change things on your hard drive. It is like a virgin system that makes no permanent changes to your computer. An air gapped (not airtight) computer is one that is never connected to any computer network. The term dates back to when we connected to computer networks using physical wires i.e. ethernet cables. To be air gapped means that their is gap between the cable and the port on the back of your PC i.e. the cable is not plugged in so there is no connection to the network. In this day and age an air gapped computer would not be capable of network access via both wired and wireless means. So it would not have a WIFI card or a mobile network access. The hardware for such wireless access has to be removed from the computer for it to be a true air gapped PC (because otherwise deeply embedded malware could be making such connections without your knowledge). The idea behind an air gapped computer is that any malware that might infect the computer can't communicate with the outside world so it can't steal your secrets i.e. your private keys. |

RBF transactions don't show up on a lot of block explorers. There is nothing to worry about.

The seed consists of 12 English words. Is that what you are calling a random password?

They sent the money to their payment processor bitpay! Why didn't they just ask the OP for an address to send the money to instead of trying to read things off a block explorer site?
