01:01:10 dumpprivkey 1FFWn3rgS6JSREQvpSKr7P6AU5TUELjMgT


01:01:10 Private key for address 1FFWn3rgS6JSREQvpSKr7P6AU5TUELjMgT is not known (code -4)


"Your screenshot shows that transaction so that means you've already synced."
it was synced on old laptop that got reinstalled, i have backup of old wallet and need to sync again to be able to access File - sending addresses


"Hmm. You sure you didn't get the bitcoins to https://blockchain.info/address/16ukC1ftC1WLxmTmb8Wpi1vjKUAMoNpCk already? I see two 6BTC transactions and two 4.6999233BTC transactions which kinda look like double spends."
i did receive this payment 4.699 to new Electrum wallet, only last one 6 BTC didnt arrive and did not come back to old wallet (months time). And i did send last two payments (6.011 BTC - arrived, and 6.00 did not arrive) to exactly same address 1FFWn3rgS6JSREQvpSKr7P6AU5TUELjMgT

total 4 payments, it went like this:
25.2. sent 4.699 , received 25.2.
26.2. sent 6.00, received 26.2.
19.4. sent 6.011, received 20.4.
20.4. sent 6.00, DID NOT receive

So they're not double spends. All you should do now is resync bitcoin core and use dumpprivkey on the sending address, or just create a normal transaction again but with higher fee, I see you're using zero fee for the other 3 transactions and that can lead to a really long confirmation time (and ended up getting dropped).

You can't use dumpprivkey to get the private key of an address that does not belong to your bitcoin core wallet so doing that with an address from your electrum wallet or any other wallet you're currently using isn't going to work, and kinda pointless if it's an address from an electrum wallet that you still have access to and doesn't have problem sending from.
those 6 BTC are not back into my old Bitcoin QT wallet, how can I send it again ?
I was using dumpprivkey from old Bitcoin QT wallet obviously (but not synced one)... Sync will take a week since I can run it only during night because it slows down my laptop a lot

this is how it went in console...  Huh


17:20:58 walletpassphrase passwordXYZ 600


17:20:58 Error: running with an unencrypted wallet, but walletpassphrase was called. (code -15)


17:21:53 dumpprivkey 1FFWn3rgS6JSREQvpSKr7P6AU5TUELjMgt


17:21:53 Invalid Bitcoin address (code -5)


That's not a valid bitcoin address. Where did you get that?
Also you can skip the walletpassphrase if you don't have a passphrase for your wallet (it's always recommended to use a passphrase though).

check my first pic ITT, it is the address i sent BTC to originally
It's not a valid address.
You don't need that address, you need the address holding the coins. That is the address where you sent it from, not to.

Judging by your whole story, and judging by how long you've been struggling with it: can't you get help from someone locally? Someone you trust, who knows what he is doing, and can help you just on your location?

no one local knows bitcoins at all. Can I find out address "From" when I sync old wallet? Will it show up there in transactions or somewhere else?

Judging from your post history you've been struggling with this since October last year?

this is still not solved. Whoever will offer solution that will work for me will receive 0.3 BTC from me
Alternative solution:
In Bitcoin Core, click Help > Debug window > Console

IF you set a password, type this:
walletpassphrase yourpassword 600

THEN type:
dumpprivkey <address that holds the 6 BTC>
Import the private key into Electrum.

My Bitcoin address is in my profile Smiley


clarification needed ... keep in my mind you have to exactly tell me what to do since im clueless  Grin
I found Help - Debug - Console in my Bitcoin Qt Wallet.
Why would I set password there? I know my password.
So I just use that dump command there?

Ill give it a shot once my wallet is synced (167 weeks behind...), will be few days
Zapwallettxes is only available for Bitcoin Core 0.10 and above. That may be the reason why it isn't working?

Try updating it and trying my command again.

i have wallet Bitcoin Qt version 4.8.3, no idea what is bitcoin core


Ill give it a shot once my wallet is synced (167 weeks behind...), will be few days
You don't need to sync Bitcoin Core to export a private key.

You started this thread in May, does that mean your wallet wasn't synced at that moment?

im installing old wallet on other laptop, i guess i will have to sync anyway since later i need to send those recovered 5.7BTC to my new wallet

It seems like majority of the network has already dropped your transaction from their mempool. For Bitcoin Core, you need to manually remove the transaction before you can make a new transaction to send to your Electrum address.

To do so, open a command prompt and type either of the commands:
For 32bit Bitcoin Core:
Code:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -zapwallettxes
For 64bit Bitcoin Core:
Code:
"C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -zapwallettxes
.


I dont know how to write " before C:\
I tried more options:


You have not to write the quotes, you need to paste or write it without the quotes like C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -zapwallettxes

^^ you can see from my image i tried that first and it was not working

please help

I sent from my old wallet Bitcoin QT to Electrum wallet and still didnt receive it nor it is back in my old wallet (10 days).

adding screenshot with transaction
14  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: transfer from Bitcoin-Qt wallet to Electrum wallet on: November 05, 2015, 09:53:37 AM
Hello

I have bunch of bitcoins on Bitcoin-Qt wallet 0.8.5 beta, and I want to transfer it to Electrum wallet. I tried to test-send 0.01 btc but it never arrived, although I can see it in history in Bitcoin-Qt wallet with correct "receiving" address.
Where is the problem?

Is the TX confirmed?
Is electrum synced?
Was bitcoin qt synced when you created the TX?

In transactions in Qt wallet its saying unconfirmed 0 of 6. How do I make it confirmed? It was deducted from my balance.
Btw its another laptop, no idea if that has any influence on anything.

Miners will confirm it, its nothing you do. Electrum might have missed the TX when you broadcasted it, but it should see it once the TX has its first confirmation.

Is electrum synced?
Was qt synced?

Qt is syncing right now, 3 weeks behind(first test send was 14.10., second 31.10.)
Just now as we  speak I received 2x pending notifications in Electrum wallet for 0.01 and 0.01, so problem was probably only Qt not synced(my bro just turned it off after test transactions). Thx for help
