Okay, only one account showed up. The listbalance command gave this result: 18.53402320
Curiouser and curiouser.....

Well that list of transactions gave me a clue. In the list you have the address 1HFsZr9Sd9dra2hkVa2gnH9SAQNNWdBKwj listed both in a send and in a receive transaction. I don't know whether this is till the case, but Bitcoind used to not send transactions you send to one of your own addresses to the network but handle it in it's internal state.
1) Have you tried rescanning the blockchain? Importing an address you have send a (unconfirmed) transaction too could have put poor old bitcoind in an inconsistent state. To do this close you daemon process and run:
C:\Program files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt -rescan
This will take a little while. See if you can see your balance once more.
2) If 1. doesn't help restart the daemon and we are going to run some commands on the bitcoind (in the new command window)
a. run: "bitcoind listaccounts" and verify that it only returns one line with "" . (I checked this is your transactions, this is to make sure).
b. run:
bitcoind getbalance ""
(with he quotes, if a. returned more than one line run it for each of the names returned within quotes and show me all output)
I rescanned, the 50BTC are still unconfirmed among eitght other unconfirmed trnsactions... Will run the daemon again now. |

This all started when you upgraded your client? ...
Uh, no. have you ever seen any files in the appdata folder for bitcoin which could have been named along the lines of wallet.bak.old or oldwallet.bak or something like that? No there's nothing like that. Further, do you recall from where you received these 50 coins initially? If you can recall or find out the address or transaction ID's from where you first got these coins it will aid in finding what address they are currently associated to. I had some of them already before all this happened, about 34 of them which I'd funded back in january and early february. Not sure of the rest. My qt client now tells me I have 50.001 BTC unconfirmed, does that mean I'll get them sometime? |

Does the above make sense to anyone?

Okay, I have a list of transactions..  Now, how on earth do I copy/paste the info from a cmd window here? |
|
|
|
Oh I think I get it  It keeps running forever (it's a daemon thread the other command prompt will talk to) and you can run the other command prompt immediately. (I'm not laughing at you, just how ridiculously limited natural language is at times  ) Go ahead and laugh, I'm a big dumb boy, I can take it I tried running -listtransactions in another window and got 'cannot obtain a lock on the data directory ....Bitcoin is probably already running. The qt client isn't running though..  |
|
|
|
Ho long does bitcoind normally run for? An do I need to let it finish before I run -listtransactions?
Are you saying that your local block chain was not up to date? I dunno, am I ? Sorry, but it I have no idea...it did update in the qt client earlier today.. |

Notepad is fine.
1) Are you saving the file in the right location?
2) Did you name it correctly? Note: If you have disabled displaying extension Windows could be hiding the *.txt portion so it might be the true name of the file is bitcoin.conf.txt. If this is the case it will not work. So to by-pass this again we'll use the command prompt again
2a.) CD to C:\Users\ACCOUNTNAME\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin (switch in your accountname for ACCOUNTNAME)
2b) type "dir" <Enter>. Do you see bitcoin.conf.txt ? Then type "ren bitcoin.conf.txt bitcoin.conf"
3) Is this the content of the file?
rpcuser=youruser
rpcpassword=PASSWORD
server=1
Aha, mea culpa on the file extension; renamed, many thanks. It's definitely in usename/appdata/roaming/bitcoin... Now its telling me "to use the -server option you must set a rpcpassword etc." Tel me, where you wrote "rpcuser=youruser", what should 'youruser' be? The content of the .conf file are as follows rpcuser=bitcoinrpc rpcpassword={redacted} server=1 It's running now but it seems to be taking its time.. |
|
|
|
You can put rpcuser=anything
rpcpassword=whateveryouwant in the bitcoin.conf file. I don't remember needing this step, but perhaps I did always have a user and password specified. I don't know if there is a minimum length or not. Just give it a shot. Try, try again...I've done it all but it keeps telling me to do it again, dammit. I'm assuming using notepad to create the .conf file is okay? So far I can't get this to work at all and now this step is driving me nuts! |

Please take the following steps (I presume you use windows): 1) Go to: C:\Users\ACCOUNTNAME\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin (switch in your accountname for ACCOUNTNAME) 2) Create a file there called bitcoin.conf 3) Add the line "server=1" in that file and save 4) Open a command prompt 5) Cd to INSTALLDIRECTORYOFBITCOIN/daemon (most likely C:\program files\bitcoin\daemon) 6) Run bitcoind 7) Open a second command prompt and go to the same directory  Run Bitcoind.exe listtransactions 9) Paste the results here I tried this but when I try to run bitcoind it tells me 'to use bitcoind you must set an rpc password in the configuration file. It is recommended you use the following password - {redacted} questions: do I have to include the line rpcuser=bitcoinrpc and is there a minimum length for this password?thanks |

All the coins in those addresses where lost to Satoshi-dice. And that happened last year.
Oops, so they have, I was looking at 'funds received' and not 'final balance'  I'm getting more and more confused. I didn't gamble the 50 BTC.. |
|
|
|

No they weren't. Please, I'd rather get real info on this rather than speculation. |
|
|
|
By the way, the total value of the above addresses is around 50btc, is this your missing coins?
I guess, but why are they showing up as unconfirmed in my qt client, and how do I fix that? |
|
|
|
This screen shot shows a transaction from January ? Why is the date 1/3/2013? . I'm in Australia, 1/3/2013 means 1st March this side of the pond. |
|
|
|
K. So what happened to my bitcoins, and more importantly, how do I get them back? |
|
|
|
So long as you have the private keys to all 3 addresses in question than there should be nothing to worry about (unless you sent coins to an incorrect address accidentally)
Import all 3 private keys into blockchain and see if any of them have btc on them imo.
More info please..be gentle, I have no idea what the private keys are or how to import them. |
|
|
|
What was the address you sent the bitcoins from, when sending to blockchain wallet?
I have three addresses in my qt client, but I'm pretty sure it was from this one - 1HswYkBpPKdwfjh1CNosZEByTm5gdKgWK5. The other two are 1Ku3K296rDi4CTXTiacC8kAp8q5tkb28NM & 1KbUKTJsm4zA6YKUH5SXGDxKVCpJEhfkew thanks for helping BTW.. |
|
|
|
Thats part of my confusion..it doesn't show up in that wallet here's the transaction from my qt client: https://i.imgur.com/vEu5BF9.jpgI'm getting more and more confused, willing to pay someone trusted here to help me recover these.. |
