I imported a private key and now I have the correct address in my account and the account has the BC in it but it's not showing in my wallet.
I'm trying to make a purchase... Help!

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

Which client? When you say the "account has the BC in it", are you meaning that using some other source the blockchain shows that Bitcoin address having funds? Or do you mean something else? If Bitcoin-Qt/bitcoind, you could try launching with -reindex [Edit: -rescan ]. |

What is the public address so we can take a look at what is happening.

Our family was terrorized by Homeland Security. Read all about it here: http://www.jmwagner.com/ and http://www.burtw.com/ Any donations to help us recover from the $300,000 in legal fees and forced donations to the Federal Asset Forfeiture slush fund are greatly appreciated! |

Just close the client and restart with -rescan from the CLI.
|
I see the value of Bitcoin, so I don't worry about the price...

No. If you look at the address the coins are sitting on, from afar one can deduce if they have moved or if it is simply an error local to you. Talking about a receiving address, something you might post to receive coins (IE no harm can come of it, sans having it "public" on a forum). But if it isn't -the- address the coins are on, this kind of analysis isn't relevant. |
BTC Long.
