Hi

I first had some bitcoins on 'Bitstamp'
My bitcoin wallet on my computer hadn't synchronized and still hasn't,  without paying attention I sent the bitcoins to my receiving address.  It has been four days and the blocks are still downloading + I dont have enough space for it to fully configure.  My bitcoins still haven't been received.  How can I find my .dat file and upload it online to use with an E-wallet.  I don't want to lose the bitcoins.

Someone please help

Thanks

You would have to use pywallet to extract the private keys, then import those private keys to blockchain.info.  I do not believe that blockchain.info has the capability to read/store an entire wallet file.

Just be careful when uploading your wallet because if someone hacks the website they can steal all of your BTC and if the website is down then you won't be able to access your BTC. Just wanted to let you know to be careful and wish you best of luck!

^^This is bad advice.^^

You most certainly can upload your wallet directly to blockchain.info and create a new blockchain.info wallet with it.  If you already have a blockchain.info wallet that you want to keep, you can either have two of them, or you can send the bitcoins from one wallet to the other, and abandon the empty one.

Here's the link to create a blockchain.info wallet from a Bitcoin-Qt wallet:
