when logging into blockchain.info wallet i get error : Error Decrypting Wallet. Please check your password is correct.
I get logged in, and i can see the amount of bitcoins available.
When creating new address I get : Error saving wallet.

Then the new address is listed but says : (Not Synced) with red letters. Then after a while the new address disappears from the list...

I am able to send money out from blockchain.info. Thinking about sending all of the money out to an instawallet until they fix the problem, feels very insecure right now..

I get the same problem when creating a brand new blockchain wallet as well so my password has nothing to do with it.

I made a backup of the wallet. I got a file called wallet.aes.json
In case blockchain.info goes down or something what good is this file for?? Can i use it to restore my wallet using the bitcoin client?

Nobody else using blockchain.info wallets? The problem remains. No reply from their support...

If you are using blockchain, please report, if you are experiencing this problem as well or if it might be browser related or something..

Just to clarify you are logged in successfully but are receiving "Error saving wallet" when trying to generate an address? What browser are you using?

Could you try clearing your cache and reloading the page.

Just to clarify . . .
Definitely talk to this guy ^^^

When it comes to blockchain.info, I don't think there is anyone here that know more about it than him.  Wink

I noticed myself it seemed dodgy today - I received the message 'failed to decrypt wallet' (or something like that), but I had logged in successfully.
I tested sending some bitcoins to my instawallet which worked fine, but I have to say it seemed different than normal.
When I click on the icon next to the https it says 'this website does not supply identity information. your connection to this website is not encrypted'
I recall it was different previously.

edit: tried again - received 'error decrypting wallet' message, but again my status is 'subscribed to wallet'

edit2:
 seems others are receiving this error message https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137380.0;topicseen

All the functionality is still there, it's just a little strange.

when logging into blockchain.info wallet i get error : Error Decrypting Wallet. Please check your password is correct.
I get logged in, and i can see the amount of bitcoins available.
When creating new address I get : Error saving wallet.

I'm facing the same problem since 1/18/2013 in FireFox 13.0. I could see incoming transactions appear, but unable to save Account Settings changes - red-background alert message "Error saving wallet" appears.

Update: "Error Decrypting Wallet. Please check your password is correct" error message is gone now, 1/19/2003  5pm ET. Thank you, BlockChain devs!

Unfortunally, I still have a problem with the BlockChain wallet that I've maid an outgoing transaction from on 2013-01-16 09:11:10. Transaction hasn't gone through, immediately after attempts to make outgoing transactions have been resulted in "... blocked to prevent double spends" error message. Afterwards till now attempts to make outgoing transaction in FireFox 13.0 bring the following error message:

"ConnectInputs: VerifySignature failed"

BlockChain devs, please have a look in it! Thank you in advance!

Update: I've just made a successful outgoing transaction from this wallet with Google Chrome Ver. 24.0.1312.52 m. Some inputs are still blocked from the previous unsuccessful outgoing transaction in FF 13.0, so I'll report the progress later.

I'm also using latest stable Firefox for Linux and no problems EVER with Blockchain. I use it as a live wallet that way I have 30 or so BTC ready at all times and have done nearly 500 Transactions through it without a single problem thumbs up to the people who operate this great service.

when logging into blockchain.info wallet i get error : Error Decrypting Wallet. Please check your password is correct.
I get logged in, and i can see the amount of bitcoins available.
When creating new address I get : Error saving wallet.

Then the new address is listed but says : (Not Synced) with red letters. Then after a while the new address disappears from the list...

I am able to send money out from blockchain.info. Thinking about sending all of the money out to an instawallet until they fix the problem, feels very insecure right now..

I get the same problem when creating a brand new blockchain wallet as well so my password has nothing to do with it.

I made a backup of the wallet. I got a file called wallet.aes.json
In case blockchain.info goes down or something what good is this file for?? Can i use it to restore my wallet using the bitcoin client?
I would almost bet your problem is either browser or OS related rather than with the site itself

Seems to be working correctly for me now with the correct verification.
Firefox just released an updated version which may have something to do with it perhaps.

I use firefox, and also noticed an unexpected red warning message yesterday (not sure of the exact text) when checking my wallet balance. All seems ok through.
Also, yesterday, I had just upgraded firefox to version 12. So perhaps this is significant.

It is probably well known, but BlockChain sends outgoing transactions 100 times faster in Google Chrome v.24 compared to FireFox 13. Anyway, it was a nice surprise for me! Smiley
