Thanks for your help. Since I do not know much about bitcoin advance technique, how can I get the private key of this address?
As I said, your addresses do not just map to one private key, they may have multiple and have a script, so it is much more complicated. Did you setup your wallet as as multisig wallet or are you using 2FA with your wallet?

Your addresses are p2sh addresses (they begin with a 3). These address do not have single private keys (if any). The only addresses which have a key map directly to the address are p2pkh address, those that begin with a 1. Your addresses are probably multisig addresses, so there is a script containing multiple public keys in order to get the address.

I tried the salvage option, but I keep getting an error message Method not found (code -32601). I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly. What exactly do I type?
You did not read the link I gave you. -salvagewallet is not a command that you enter into the debug console. It is a start up option (aka a command line option). You have to stop Bitcoin Core and then start it with that option. Read the instructions at the link I gave you.

I did that already (from old laptop with old multibit and wallet). But it didn't go through, and somebody on FB mentioned that old Multibit might not be able to successfully send btc to new Multibit. ? Whether they're right or not, it didn't.
Some stuff has changed since MultiBit Classic was last updated so transactions may not propagate as well. Instead of using MultiBit Classic, you could export the private keys and import/sweep them into another wallet, such as Electrum. Then I reset the blockchain, and the wallet then only showed 1 btc in it (WTF?)
Look up your address on a block explorer such as https://blockchain.info/ and see if they report the balances correctly. Related: There's 2.17 btc showing in this wallet. When I go to Multibit HD and 'request', and put in 2.17btc, it shows only $2.21 . Two dollars and twenty one cents?
Last time I tried the transfer on the old laptop I had 2.17btc requested and it showed $1.99 or so. I thought it was odd, sent btc to the address it generated, and no transfer happened.
Shouldn't it show $2,000+ right now for 2.17 btc?
First, you do not need to use "Request" in order to receive Bitcoin. Secondly, MultiBit HD defaults to a unit that is not BTC. Rather it uses mBTC (milli Bitcoin) which is one thousandth of a Bitcoin. You can change that in the settings somewhere.

Multibit classic cannot be imported into MultiBit HD. You should install MultiBit classic and MultiBit HD and then send the money from MultiBit classic to MultiBit HD.

Thank you for the information. This is my first time receiving a transaction so I wasn't able to control the fee. I will do as you suggested and try to contact a miner. Is it possible this will never get confirmed because of the size?
Yes, it is possible the the transaction could never confirm, but not necessarily due to the size. There are other things that could happen that can cause the transaction to never confirm, although I think that never confirming is unlikely. It will probably just take a few days to confirm. If you want to raise the odds of it confirming, you can rebroadcast (or ask someone else to) the transaction continuously so that all nodes are reminded that the transaction exists.

There are a few problems here. First, your transaction spends from this unconfirmed transaction: https://blockchain.info/tx/53adee2f59c7ba40b6162bc67106c640949fa10880640c31a1333aed636d3602 Your transaction will not confirm until this transaction that it spends from confirms as well. That transaction pays a fee rate of ~63 satoshis/byte. The current recommended fee is 140 satoshis/byte according to http://bitcoinfees.21.co/. The next problem is that your transaction is absolutely massive. It is 16960 bytes in size, ~75 times larger than the average transaction size. That means that nodes are less likely to relay this transaction and it also means that you will need to pay a very large fee. The fee rate of the transaction is only 50 satoshis/byte, which is also less than the recommended. Because there are two transactions that depend on each other being the problem here, there is not much that you can do. You can either wait for them to confirm, or ask a miner to confirm them for you. For asking a miner, you can use this tool: https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ or you can also contact the users Quickseller and macbook-air.

Sir I am not created any temporary address, my case history is as under :- On 27th Dec. 2016 at 09.58.05 hrs I have remitted 0.16375102 BTC to 36Vde3ZR7JuhsoKSpTDoLJx6JVhxy765h8 from my Unocoin BTC Address 3PA6kinhz2pHXcHNKzLKQP6roC4wpByaKK. But in the transaction hash link my BTC address has been shown as 391eM7KQSyjCUBtRUZT1dcgF29FMQodwuB instead of 3PA6kinhz2pHXcHNKzLKQP6roC4wpByaKK. This means the BTC Address allotted during this transaction in behalf of 3PA6kinhz2pHXcHNKzLKQP6roC4wpByaKK i.e. 391eM7KQSyjCUBtRUZT1dcgF29FMQodwuB is also pertains me I have no awareness about who or in which wallet created this new BTC Address. Because this ID has been created my Unocoin wallet while above transaction made. . In this connection the transaction hash Link may kindly be perused. https://insight.bitpay.com/tx/dcb6f082e6d63fab9cf96058dd3607c2b4fa0ea087d7fad52f8ae3807f4a4431Just because the transaction was sent from 391eM7KQSyjCUBtRUZT1dcgF29FMQodwuB does not mean that that address is yours. Many online wallets do not actually give you personal addresses. Rather you should think of it as you are depositing Bitcoin into the services wallet, and they in turn have a something on their system that says that you are entitled to withdraw that amount from their wallet, but not necessarily from the addresses in which you deposited. As such, the address above is not actually your address. Further On 30th Dec. 2016 I need to be remit 1.5382 BTC to same vendor to his BTC Address 36Vde3ZR7JuhsoKSpTDoLJx6JVhxy765h8. But erroneously I have send the BTC to 391eM7KQSyjCUBtRUZT1dcgF29FMQodwuB which BTC Address has been generated in my previous transaction on behalf of my Unocoin BTC Address (i.e the BTC address is also pertains to me) and the transaction status has been shown as Payment Successful. That means this BTC should be credited into my BTC account 391eM7KQSyjCUBtRUZT1dcgF29FMQodwuB. https://bitref.com/391eM7KQSyjCUBtRUZT1dcgF29FMQodwuBAs I said earlier, this is not the case. That address is not your deposit address and thus the Bitcoin will not be credited to your account but rather someone else's. With this issue, I highly doubt you will get the Bitcoin back. You have essentially given it away to whoever has that deposit address. You can contact their customer support however I think it is unlikely that they will credit your account with the Bitcoin, although it may be possible. However there is nothing that users here can do to help you. This is entirely a service issue.

Your post is a little hard to follow.
If I understand you correctly, you created a "temporary" address on a website some time ago in order to receive Bitcoin there. Then recently you accidentally sent some more Bitcoin to that "temporary" address but it has not appeared in your account. Is this correct?
If so, there is nothing that users here can do to help you. All you can do is contact their support. It would be best if you had the txid of the transaction in question so that you can prove to them that Bitcoin was sent to the address.
Also, there are no such things as temporary addresses. Addresses are not temporary, they can be sent to multiple times, whenever you want, and the network will not care. However the wallet provider may stop tracking addresses if they so choose, although doing so is typically considered bad as people still send Bitcoin to previously used addresses.

There are several different pieces of malware that are designed to hijack people's computer in order to mine Bitcoin. It is very likely that the virus is such a miner, although I have never heard of one written in Java. Either way, you should still have your antivirus remove it.

Please post the transaction id of your transaction. As was mentioned, the likely culprit is a low transaction fee. You have a few options here. You can wait and hope it confirms, wait for the transaction to be "forgotten" by the network, attempt a double spending transaction that pays a higher fee, or ask a miner to confirm it for you. Unfortunately the third option will be particularly difficult for you as you will need to use a wallet other than blockchain.info and move your private keys to that wallet. For the fourth option, you can contact the users Quickseller and macbook-air.
If your post was deleted, it was because it was repeating what has already been said, or is off topic.

As I saw all of your fees are more than 10,000 satoshis/kb and are not low 65s/byte
10,000 satoshis/kilobyte is 10 satoshis/byte, much much lower than 65 satoshis/byte.
Your transactions already have several confirmations, I will be locking this thread to prevent other people from posting off topic and spamming.
If your post was just deleted, it is because you are either posting off topic, hijacking the thread, or simply repeating stuff that has already been said. If your post was related to your own unconfirmed transactions, please make a new thread about that, do not hijack other people's threads.

i make it so and it works fine( ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ) with the command : "C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -zapwallettxes but i got this message from bitcoin qt: "Urgent: Alert key compromised upgrade required" ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) That message is completely unrelated to this thread and to the broader topic at hand. See https://bitcoin.org/en/alert/2016-11-01-alert-retirement for information about that message.

A little OT but very short question: Are you (goatpig) in favor of Segwit / Neutral / in favor of BU ? I have my own opinion, but also wanna hear from someone who actually has knowledge about code and stuff. If u have the time you can comment on your opinion, or just give the answer without any explanation.
He is in favor of segwit. The next version of Armory will have segwit support. Doesn't have to mean the same. I also follow every rule of law even if i do not like them... He has explicitly expressed support for Segwit on the IRC channel. Furthermore, Segwit is not a law, nor is it required for every wallet to use segwit. If he did not like segwit, then he does not have to implement it.

You have a few options. You can wait and hope it confirms, wait and hope the network forgets about it and resend, double spend it with a transaction that pays a higher fee (RBF), or ask a miner to confirm it for you. For the third option, we need to know what wallet software you are using. For the fourth option, you can contact the users Quickseller and macbook-air.

A transaction cannot "use your node". The way that Bitcoin works is that transactions and blocks are broadcast in a flood, i.e. every single node will receive all transactions and blocks and then relay them to all of the nodes that it is connected to. There is no way to determine what nodes the transaction has already passed through nor is there a way to determine what node the transaction originated from. There is no concern here.
