Not sure if this is correct thread for this question but here goes..
I'm trying to sweep private keys from a very old multi bit wallet into my just installed Electrum.
(I cant adjust fee in the old multi bit so coins are basically unsendable)
So i have dumped the keys from multibit.
I managed to get only one (out of about 20) to work. i swept it,broadcast, and funds showed up in electrum wallet.
All the rest of the keys i tried same process but gives me the message
"no inputs found, note inputs need to be confirmed".
one more thing... and the reason i'm doing this, i currently have a stuck transaction in my old multibit wallet that's unconfirmed
because of you guessed it...fee too low.
Im suspecting this maybe reason private keys wont sweep into Electrum? IDK as I'm not good at this technical stuff.
I never thought it would be so complicated . I just want to transfer coins from an old wallet to a new.
Any help would be appreciated. thanx and great wallet btw
To send money from one wallet to another you simply send to one of the receiving address of the target wallet. So go to the receive tab of your electrum wallet and grab the address it gives you there. Put that into multibit and send your bitcoins there. You don't have to muck about with private keys!
The problem was my ancient multibit wallet has the fee set way too low and no way to adjust.
So any send transactions from that wallet would automatically get stuck and never confirm.
The Electrum sweep and broadcast method enabled me in effect to transfer coins and have the receiving
Electrum wallet pay the proper fee, rather than the sending wallet. Very useful for my predicament.
Its all done btw . Apart from a password glitch (thank you seed recovery!) this AM, I'm all good thanx.
