Using Armory 0.95.1, I attempted to allow synchronization before attempting to import my paper wallet.  I believe the blockchain is synchronized ( I compared the value of "bitcoin-cli getblockcount" with value at https://blockexplorer.com/api/status?q=getBlockCount and I get a match.  However, when I attempt to import the wallet, I get "Armory is in the middle of scanning the blockchain".  How do I get my wallet entered?  I have seen some posts saying to "turn off auto bitcoind" but I don't know what that means.  Please help.

Go to File > Settings and uncheck the box "Let Armory run Bitcoind in the background". Then stop Armory, start Bitcoin Core, and start Armory again.

online computer  (is better clear all old records)

1. Install Bitcoin core 0.13.2 and download all blocks. (need a few days), keep Bitcoin core running!
2. Install armory 0.95.1, then go to setting uncheck the box "Let Armory run Bitcoind in the background" , then quit armory
3. go in armory again then a black window will appear, don't close it! you will see armory to build the blocks from the black window. Let armory keep to run a few hours to finish. Then you got armory online!
4. Import your watch-only wallet.  you also can create your watch-only wallet from your offline wallet.

offline computer

1. Install armory 0.92 - 0.95.1 version is ok to sign the transaction.

2. Import your offline wallet which can create your watch-only wallet.

At any point, do you go back to allowing Armory to run Bitcoin in the background again?
