What's up with this coin... when you mine it it's minimum 2-5 xmr for exchange wallet. Windows wallet doesn't work - third day now... Daemon doesn't start... wallet crashes... this thing doesn't work... how the hell is everybody using this coin?

All of that not true (except maybe YOUR windows wallet not working)

All of this is true. I test win64 wallet on 2 systems - both have almost identical OS. On first system Monero Wallet doesn't load up, it crashes, then I have to manually end process - pain in the ass basically.

On second system, it actually loaded, but then when I try to start daemon it hangs again for hours and never finishes the process, I have to kill it manually - more pain in the ass. It doesn't work. Hey when I see this coin software working, maybe I'll even buy it... doesn't look good to me so far... I don't understand why the price is so high for this coin with such dodgy software...

For both systems, what happens if you open monerod.exe manually? Just double click on it to open it manually. Also, if your system isn't able to sync, you can always use a remote node:

https://moneroworld.com/#nodes

I started monerod manually... after shortwhile the gui started syncing... I'll have to test on the other system to confirm. It should still work from the GUI though... maybe somebody on the software side should look into this problem, I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem with daemon not being able to launch from the GUI

What specific OS are you using? Also, could you paste the last 100 lines or so of bitmonero.log? It's in C:\ProgramData\bitmonero. Note that, by default, this directory is hidden.

Lastly, did you try a remote node?

I'm loving it, mining zcash with nvidia to buy cheap moneros, good times.

Seriously ?

https://www.coindesk.com/edward-snowden-zcash-is-most-interesting-bitcoin-alternative/

Asked for his thoughts on monero, a competing private currency, Snowden said it was "amateur crypto" and pointed to traceability issues within the tech.

Maybe you would better do the opposite.

He linked to something which has been debunked:

I'm assuming all that stuff about the wallet being "refreshed" and "updated" means it is fully synced.
There's still no way to check the block height.  
By the way, what does it mean
Code:
qml: restore Height 0


If you leave it open for a while you should be able to see it. Also, the wallet automatically refreshes when the blockchain is fully synced. Thus, if the blockchain is fully synced, you can safely assume that the wallet height is equal to the blockchain height.

I'm running into another type of trouble with the GUI as well... Is there someone who is familiar with the GUI help me out with a problem I'm having verifying a transaction? I created a new wallet for someone and there was a transaction going to that wallet and the wallet doesn't show the transaction arrived... but after looking at xmrchain.net and using the private view key it shows the transaction is there.

I tried rescanning the wallet balance, but it just tells me "Successfully rescanned spent outputs" without the transaction showing up.  I've also closed out of the wallet and reopened the wallet using the mnemonic seed and checking that the daemon is all the way synced up, plus try to verify the transaction using the address, tx id, and tx key to no avail... Am I doing something wrong here?

What did you use as restore height?

I didn't set it to restore at a specific height, I think it restored from the beginning... but maybe I didn't. How do I rescan/restore the wallet in the GUI if I already created the wallet?

EDIT: well this is interesting... I just downloaded the CLI and started up my node and it says that it is 5 days behind even though my "GUI node" was running this whole time.  I wonder how that happened?

EDIT #2: Also, whoever is in control of the OP might want to edit in the current v0.11.0.0 downloads/download hashes

Are you stuck on block 1400001? In monerod you can type status to see which block you're currently at. It should be equal to the height displayed on, for example, XMRchain:

https://xmrchain.net/

If you updated monero master within the last 24 hours, please revert. There's currently a bad commit, and a patch waiting to be merged as soon as someone with write access is around to do so. Do not use the current master on mainnet until this is merged.

To clarify, this merely applies when you compile yourself (from master). The release binaries are not affected. Thus, if you're using the release binaries, you're fine.

I can't get the gui to connect to a remote node.
I went to settings, and typed the daemon address and port.  
When I click on Show Status, a box pops up with the error message
error: couldn't connect to daemon: 127.0.0.1:18081
I also tried clicking the Connect button on the page where I entered the remote node's address.
How do I get this to work?

Could you try this?

https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/3259/how-can-i-connect-remotely-to-my-own-node-for-other-devices
I tried that.
With the CLI, I can find out whether the wallet is syncing by using the status command.  I need to do that in the gui to find out whether my wallet is syncing.  I can't go by the amount.  I copied the wallet files, so the correct amount shows but that doesn't tell me anything about the block height the wallet is at now.  How do you check the status, i.e. block height the wallet is at?

Which OS are you using? It should be visible in the terminal if you're using Linux or Mac OS X and launch the GUI from the terminal.

I can't get the gui to connect to a remote node.  This is the first time I'm trying to use the gui.  I've been using the CLI for a long time.
I have a VPS in Europe that I'm trying to connect to.  I know that it's running and synced because I just tried it with the cli.
So I open the gui and go to settings, type the daemon address and port.  Hit connect. 
I don't see anything happening, so I click on Show Status.
A box pops up with the error message
error: couldn't connect to daemon: 127.0.0.1:18081
which as you can probably tell is not the address of my vps.
How do I get this to work?

hi, i wan´t to create a paper-wallet on an offline-system. I read this:

"A Monero paper wallet can be generated by downloading the source code of https://moneroaddress.org/. Verify the signature of the code on a trusted airgapped device." q: https://getmonero.org/resources/moneropedia/wallet.html

How can i do step 2: "Verify the signature of the code on a trusted airgapped device"?

I think, this has to be done: " In order to check either, you first need to import moneromooo's GPG key from the Monero source tree: gpg --import moneromooo.asc"

I downloadet the 3 files: README.md monero-wallet-generator.html monero-wallet-generator.html.asc

But how does it work? Where do i have to put in the "gpg --import moneromooo.asc"? In Windows10-Console - CMD? That doesen´t works.


Those instructions are for Linux, where you can just use git from the command line. If you're using Windows you should use a third party / GUI client (googling gives good results). However, I'd advise to just use either of these guides to create a secure paper wallet:

hi
how to access my wallet using view key ?
is it possible using monero gui ? i lost my wallet file and password and only have main address and view key from it .
it was local wallet .
i tried monero gui but cant see where to put view key
any help?

You can only restore your funds with either the .keys file + its password, the 25 word mnemonic seed, or the private spend key. If you have neither of those you should, unfortunately, consider your funds as lost.

Hey guys, the other night I tried to send monero through xmr.to to pay for something... and I ran into an issue idk how to deal with on the new GUI.

So my transaction apparently never made it out to the blockchain and has been "pending" for quite sometime.  I tried "Rescan wallet balance", without the wallet actually rescanning anything and the problem still continues.

I found this on stack exchange, but don't know how to run any of those commands through the GUI.

Halp? Huh

Try these steps:

1. Exit the GUI and make sure to close the daemon as well.

2. Open monerod manually.

3. Type flush_txpool.

4. Open the GUI.

5. Use the rescan spent button in the GUI.

Let me know if this works.

Does anyone know an answer as to whether the Ledger Nano S will or will not support XMR (Monero)? The answers / posts here are ambiguous and lack concise details regarding an answer to the question and with respect to when.

The Nano S will have Monero support as far as I know.

Hello,

I'm new to Monero, so please use the most basic explanations. Thanks!
 
I've sent XMR from Kraken exchange to my Gui wallet a while ago, using an integrated adress. Only I didn't notice that my wallet was not connected at that moment.

Later I connected the wallet using a node from Monero World. Also I've deleted the cache to let the wallet rebuild. I've also checked if the transaction is listed in the blockchain, which is the case. Still, the GUI wallet does on my Macbook not show the right amount of XMR, while it is connected.

What can I do to make my transaction visible in the wallet?

Could you first verify that your transaction actually arrived?

Does anyone know how to uninstall the latest Monero GUI Beta 2 from Ubuntu? I got it to install and created a wallet, but ran into some daemon problems trying to access that wallet so now I'm trying to start fresh. I'm new to Linux, so take that into some consideration.

Just delete the binaries and delete the $HOME/.bitmonero directory (note that this directory is hidden by default). Also, could you try the new release? You can grab it from here:

https://getmonero.org/downloads/

Lastly, if your local node is acting wonky, you can always use a remote node:
