Neo,

You can send the amount from one wallet to another. Once you buy bitcoins you can transfer them to your local wallet on your desktop PC. Most people would recommend storing most of your bitcoins locally and then having a backup the private key to your wallet (which you can find in the menus of bitcoin-qt).

It isn't very hard when you think about those addresses as places to store your coins. Remember....there is no spoon.

Hope this helps!

Will you be using an escrow service?

New to this forum, old to the world.

Ok I am done syncing and I do see the transaction, as of right now my balance is 7.3 BTC and my unconfirmed is .014 BTC. However the deposit for 4BTC does show 267 confirmations with a green check next to it. I guess I am not really sure what my unconfirmed balance means.

I used the  bitcoin-qt client for OSX. I transfered 4BTC into my wallet and soon after I did a backup. Then I encrypted the wallet, after the encryption the coins were gone. I tried reverting to the backup and they aren't there either. Should I kiss my 4BTC goodbye or is there something I can do to get them back?

Thanks!
