Will do right now. reporting back: tried switching while running but didn't connect. Exited and started again, still no connect but does have your server selected in list. 09:37 UTC. Tried a few others with same result. Exited with ecdsa.org as default and started again and connected to that one. But doesn't update my last transaction.

Only a guess... try deleting blockchain-file when electrum is closed. It helped for me. But always make backup before replacing or deleting something. I do it simply by packaging them into a RAR-Archive.

Try Sebastian's suggestion and redownloading the headers from the server.

Try Sebastian's suggestion and redownloading the headers from the server. Just trying this now. What's weird is that it says not connected but I see the blockchain_headers file growing so it must be downloading. I think it should show something while downloading. All dates changed to unknown... file seems to have stopped updating. Still no dates and not connected. Closed and re-opened. Says Syncing, but then stops, no history shown and not connected. Weird. No debug msgs on linux console. Closed and reverted blockchain file and comes up with my dates again but still no connect. My original blockchain file is 18.5 MB but the one just tried downloading was only 17.7 MB. edit: just tried changing to TCP mode on ecdsa.org and it sync'd, and then reverted to "not connected", and then it changed server back to SSL mode and disabled other modes (without my doing anything). Very odd.

Note: I just noticed that the "RELEASE-NOTES" file inside "Electrum-1.7.3.tar.gz" was not updated - it only contains the information up to version 1.7.2.

Both of the seeds to my two offline wallets don't work. There's nearly BTC50.00 between them have I really copied both seeds wrong? I just went to check them today and move them and both seeds don't work. I've used electrum before by seed in just writing them down and it always worked. Am I doing something wrong or have I lost BTC50.00

I'm entering twelve correctly spelt words that I had wrote down and printed off for both wallets and I'm getting the message "Can not decode this". Does anyone know how I access the electrum dictionary on Xubuntu. So I can check the words off.

Thanks, I've been through the list and one seed does have one word wrong and for the other seed all the words are on the list but I still get the error "Cannot decode this". If I can find someone trustworthy to help me regain both the wallets I'd like to pay towards a VPS to run Electrum over I2p using the new bitcoin I2p patch. As well as offering electrum over Tor as well if possible on a the same VPS. With a basic instructions on using it added to the electrum how-to. I can't do that but I'd pay BTC2.50 for each seed recovered towards a VPS. Or donate BTC2.50 for each seed recovered towards Electrum devolpment or a/the dev(s)/'s coffee bill.

I don't think there is anything anyone can do if you did not write down your seed properly. You could try to bruteforce the word you know is wrong with one of the other words from the list but that's about it. There has been no code change seed wise since recent versions. So unless you were running a version that was two years old it should work if you wrote it down properly. There should be twelve words, and they should be typed in, in the other you got them.

I just fixed that, in case that was the cause of your problem: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/commit/19641245156fa4f9484c99f0b22423dca7fcfd89if you don't use the git version, try to enter your seed words separated only by spaces, no newline. let me know if that fixed it.

Also, if you are copy-pasting the seed, make sure you there are no leading or trailing spaces. And only one space between each word.

Got the coins back with help. F@#*ing dyslexia! I sometimes considered adding a print button to the dialog that shows the seed. But I am concerned that the decrypted seed will remain in the memory of the printer, which would be an easy target. Anyway, I think people who have dyslexia should copy paste the seed and print it.

What is a use case for gap limit? A retailer would need it to serve 100,000 unique purchase addresses at a time? Could I serve 100,000 addresses and when half are used up I would be served an additional 100,000 addresses by Electrum?
(the purpose of this could be to determine a unique point of sale "intent", when someone determined to buy an item)
Thanks!!

Pulled from git yesterday, and it fixed an annoying bug that throws an error when I've closed the client with a pending transaction.
Thanks, ecdsa.
