The Armory website is joke. The FAQ dont answer anything pertenant or have NO problem solving q and a. PICTURES = 1000 words.
Which website? There's an old Armory website (bitcoinarmory.com) and the new one (btcarmory.com). Granted the documentation on both is lacking.
There really isn't anything to make screenshots of to explain things...
I downloaded and installed Bitcoin core after finding youtube vids.
Did you read my first post where I asked if you had installed Bitcoin Core? (I don't think you did).
Is this the same as ArmoryDB.exe? That runs until 257 then says Organizing chain.
No, Bitcoin Core and ArmoryDB are different things. Bitcoin Core is an entirely separate program that Armory depends on. If Bitcoin Core is not installed, it should warn you that Bitcoin Core is not installed and give you clear instructions on how to install it. ArmoryDB is Armory's database engine which relies on Bitcoin Core being installed and running.
I was on OLD one. New one looks worse.
https://btcarmory.com/contribute/website-todo/ Need to add the the website todo list. Nowhere does it talk about downloading and running Bitcoin core for hours.
The 20.00 usd in btc I sent to my wallet is as good as gone to me. I will give away the key and pw so its not lost forever. Who wants it?
