Tried Google Maps...  Joking, I don't use core but yes that sounds right. When you request payment it should show you an address and I believe that will change as you cycle through addresses. |

Does core not show a list of addresses?
Guess not otherwise you would not be asking. I'm sure there must be a way to see a list of addresses, just hang in there, somebody with more brains will be along soon.
I know In Electrum I can see the first 10 or 20 addresses as well as change addresses etc..

You can without requesting any payment actually . Go to "File" on the menu => Receiving adresses and that's it , you should get the following and you can generate as many as you want .  |

It creates 1 address but not shows on the receive tab. You need to find this address on the menu: File-> Receiving addresses.

Thanks i guess i'll just keep hitting that button until i see an Addy i like lol. might take a while.
Bitcoin Core isn't generally intended to have a single address. It is designed with the idea that the user should generate a new address for every transaction. Therefore ,whenever you need an address, you just hit the request payment and get a new address for that transaction. The software takes care of keeping track of all your addresses for you and managing all the bitcoins you've received regardless of which address they arrived on. |

Is there any way to speed up the D/L of the Block chain? I've been D/l'ing it for the past 2 days and i still have 34 Weeks left. It shows Number of Connections : 8 (In: 0 / Out:  but the blocks are coming at a crawl. Last wallet i d/l I think was a bit faster. |

Latest version which is 0.11.0 should have faster downloading for the blockchain , all you can do right now is to wait and see . there is no need to download the Bootstrap.dat file on torrent now since it's faster as far as I know . so just wait (hove mouse on the ProgressBar to see the blocks are moving or not ) |

It will jump like 10 blocks then after 5 minutes maybe another 5-10 and so on. I'm at 335489 block |

You may take a look at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1035738.msg11183739#msg11183739 to see a list of fast nodes and add them to your .conf The list is kind of old, so may be some of the nodes are no longer active now. |

Before you send BTC from your bitcoin wallet you need to wait and finish sync with server because you willd not see your btc recieved anymore. just like mine. |
