Here's another thing you can try. If I were to guess, I would think that the server you're connecting to is probably not giving you the correct information.
Go to Classic GUI by selecting it from the 'View' menu, if you're using the Lite GUI.
Then in the lower right corner of the screen in the Classic GUI, you should see a green dot. Press the green dot. This will bring up a list of servers to connect to. Try connecting to different servers and see if they show you the same total balance.

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in
Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it
will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

A wallet is composed of multiple individual addresses. The addresses are the items that actually hold the bitcoins. It's difficult to figure out if a total balance is correct when looking at the whole wallet. We need to check the balance in each address. In electrum, bring up the Classic GUI, (if you're using the Lite GUI), by going to the View Menu and selecting Classic GUI. Then go to the 'Receive' tab. On the 'Receive' tab, you should see a balance associated with each individual address. This should be the actual balance in each of those addresses. You can double check them by going to ' www.btcbalance.net', and entering the addresses into that web page, which will also show you the balances in each address. If the two balances match, the one in electrum, and the one in www.btcbalance.net, then you can be confident that the balance in that address is correct. If you find an address in Electrum which has a different amount of bitcoins in it than in www.btcbalance.net, then it's probably Electrum's fault. Let us know. Actually, if you want to see individual address balances, then you not only have to use the Classic GUI, but you also have to put the program into 'Expert Mode' by Selecting 'Preferences' from the File Menu. Then checking the 'Expert Mode' checkbox on the Display Tab. Then you can close the Preferences box and select the Receive Tab, where you will see the individual balances on each address. |

There isn't any associated balance to the address that i have in Receive tab. How to see it? Anyway now it is just missing a transaction, the one underlined in red in my previous post. Your procedure should be the best way to collect all addresses (including change ones) from the Bitcoin-Qt client. ...but it seems to skip something because it doesn't take over that transaction  PS: Have i to register one of the addresses on btcbalance? EDIT: i solve the problem with pywallet. I follow the procedure you linked me last time: In Bitcoin-qt you would only dump 1 key at a time. Use pywallet instead  Install pywallet dependencies(see: https://github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet) Then: mkdir pywallet
cd pywallet
wget --output-document=pywallet.py https://raw.github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet/master/pywallet.py
python pywallet.py --web Next: Open your browser and navigate to localhost:8989 Search the dump keys part and write only "sec" on the export format. Choose a dir/file where to save the dumped private keys. You can then batch import them into Electrum. And i obtained a file containing 110 private keys. I imported them to Electrum (about 10 private keys can't be imported, i don't know why), but the balance is still wrong and that transaction is still missing. Why? Arghhhhhh EDIT2: if i try to send a payment i get this message: "wallet not synchronized". |

Which server are you connecting to? And have you tried connecting with other servers?
To connect with a server, switch to the Classic GUI and click on the Green Dot at the lower right corner of the window.

It was on random. Yes, i tried to connect to other servers, but nothing changed. |

I don't know what could be wrong at this point. However, if you use the Classic GUI and set the mode to 'Expert Mode' in the Preferences, then you can see the actual balance in each bitcoin address in your system by then selecting the 'Receive' tab on the main screen. You can compare these balances by using either btcbalance.net, or by checking each address using blockchain.info by adding the address to the end of this URL, like this: http://blockchain.info/address/1GcKb752rgkeYC2w72dgpoCUQBpEmHAkYZOtherwise, there's no way to figure out the problem just by looking at wallet ledger entries. |

I came across a problem yesterday, with imported addresses, and I think it's the same problem you're seeing. I brought it to the attention of the devs and they produced a development version of the software which I think will fix this problem. However, it hasn't been released yet, but will be in version 1.9.
My problem was with an imported address which was used in a transaction. The transaction did not get recorded. To fix it, I had to erase my wallet, and then recreate it. Of course, this removed the imported addresses from the wallet, but when I reloaded them, they were correct.
Maybe you can try this, if you're interested, or wait until version 1.9 is released.

With me, a transaction was somehow missed in the history, when I sent a payment from an imported address. It may be the same problem. If so, then yes, it would be a bug in Electrum. However, I don't exactly know what the poster's problem is, so I can't say for sure. |
