No worry, we all start as a newbie. Smiley

If you just want to send all your bitcoin to your Multibit wallet, you don't need import anything.
You only need to import a private key, when you have an address created on another wallet and want to keep using that address.

After you have set up your new Multibit wallet, don't forget to backup the files. https://multibit.org/en/help/v0.5/help_walletBackups.html


Th latest version of Multibit has only the possibility to import private keys from other Multibit wallets. Import private keys from Blockchain or other wallets is no longer supported.

You can, you just have to edit the .key file in notepad.

Try exporting private keys from your MultiBit wallet as a .key file and then add as many private keys to it by editing it with notepad. This will then import in MultiBit.


If you can edit it in notepad that means its stored in plain text? what the hell kind of security is that especially if you have a virus.

I recently asked a question whether Tor can be used with web wallets with precautions to things like malicious exit nodes...didn't get any answers though.

Tor has had problems in the past with attacks on exit nodes.   I would NEVER use anything important over it.  Yes they fix it... and eventually another attack pops up. 

Don't risk it on your wallets.

That goes for forums & other things which you have to log into.
