For the past 30-45 days I have been trying to move my Bitcoins out of Armory (i will admit I am not that technical). In the past I moved Bitcoins in and out of Armory and had no issues. Now...Huh ( look up my posts if you want to see-my current issues).

It seems like every few day I am posting something here trying to figure out the latest technical issue to move my Bitcoins... today I am looking for a new wallet to import my private keys and get my Bitcoins out of the Armory wallet. Yes I know it won't be as secure as Armory, but if you can't access your coins what good are they?

Suggestions on a wallet I can import my private keys into so I can at least move these? One with a trezor or ledger would be preferred.

I am no longer interested in resolving all the Armory technical issues.

Thanks for letting me vent.
The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

Have you already exported the private keys?
If so, offline signing with Electrum is safe and easy.
LoyceV: post the how-to summary here.

LoyceV: post the how-to summary here.
See:
Online:
Install Electrum on your PC.
Import your address to create a watch-only wallet.
Preview the transaction, Copy the unsigned transaction. Put it on a USB stick.

Offline and running without hard drive storage:
Get a Linux LIVE DVD. Use Knoppix for instance, or any other distribution that comes with Electrum pre-installed.
Unplug your internet cable. Close the curtains. Reboot your computer and start up from that DVD. Don't enter any wireless connection password. Keep it offline.
Start Electrum. Import your private key.
Copy your unsigned transaction from the USB stick, load it into Electrum.
CHECK the transaction in Electrum. Check the fees, check the amount, check all destination addresses (character by character).
If all is okay, sign the transaction. Copy it back to your USB stick.
Turn off the computer. That wipes the Live LINUX from memory and all traces are gone.

Online:
Use your normal online Electrum to (check again and) broadcast the transaction.

Bonus:
After moving all your Bitcoin, and once the transaction confirmed, check if you own Forkcoins.

Thanks for the updates:

On the Linux LIVE DVD. Use Knoppix would a link like this work?

https://www.knopper.net/knoppix-mirrors/download-en.php?lang=en&link=ftp://ftp.knoppix.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/knoppix-dvd/

Knoppix is available in English, but by now I would recommend Tails instead.

I am getting closer to figuring this out again but now my Armory wallet says its offline and cannot send the transaction? And for the life of me I cannot figure how to get it to go online. Bitcoin core is completely "syncd" Armory boots up and runs for a while then loads. Offline signing seems to go as it use to??

Unfortunately, that isn't the correct log file... would need to see the contents of armorylog.txt (and/or dbLog.txt) to try and trouble shoot your "offline" errors.
