Withdrawing BTC from MTgox 'Invalid bitcoin address, please confirm your input'

[Gimmoroy]

Maybe too many panic requests....?  Get BTC in just one sec. right now.  Waiting for confirmation.......

I tried with a few new, unused addresses, none of them worked.
But no problem here with an old one.

Bump: trying to withdraw a silly 0.5btc, same thing still. *edit; worked a few minutes later. but damn.. that amateurism :/

[hannesnaude]

Same story. I've tried with several different  addresses and amounts now. No luck

[nederhoed]

I'm having these errors today, on perfectly sound addresses.

[hannesnaude]

Yeah, I eventually got mine to go through. Allthough the first few that "went through" actually didn't go through at all but were double-spends by gox (see thread on this elsewhere). I strongly suspect that the theory that this happens when gox's hotwallet is empty is spot-on. This happens whenever the gap between gox price and stamp price is narrower than usual. You get a run on withdrawals at gox which results in an empty hot wallet. Count on this taking ~2-3 days to resolve.

I'm getting it right now with a perfectly valid wallet address.
This is pathetic.

Why do people continue to use MtGox?  Seriously... you can't get money out of MtGox, it's a black hole.  Please stop using it.

[tonyq]

12 hours since they issued me a ticket and I'm still unable to withdraw my bitcoin and I still haven't heard from them.
You're right....the Gox is useless and I won't be bothering with them any more after this.

After receiving this error repeatedly and finding this thread, it occurred to me that it might be due to browser incompatibilities. I switched from Chrome to Safari, and the error disappeared. I hope that anybody finding this thread again will be able to resolve the issue just like this, without the need of clicking repeatedly and crossing fingers.
