Your main nxt folder contains a "conf" folder. In there you will find the nxt-default.properties file.
Open it with a Text Editor.
This line: nxt.isTestnet=false
Change it to true
save the file with the name nxt.properties (so that it won't get overwritten after an update)

When I was doing it up popped:

# Do not modify this file. Instead, create a nxt.properties file with only the properties
# you need to change, and set them there. The values in nxt.properties override those in
# nxt-default.properties.


I guess that is saying the same thing as:

Better just go to the conf folder, create a new text file, call it nxt.properties, (no .txt at end). Add a line to that file: "nxt.isTestnet=true", then run Nxt and go to http://localhost:6876/

(The problem with copying the whole file is you are defaulting parameters that might not be defaulted an upcoming release, thus causing problems down the line[many people have had issues with this]. nxt.properties should only contain lines where you are deliberately making changes to the configuration.)

When you say: "create a new text file" then: "add a line" it sounds like you want me to copy a file to change is that what I should do?

Sorry for the confusion 
Just do it like valarmg suggested:

Open up your favorite text editor
write only this:  nxt.isTestnet=true
Save it with the name "nxt.properties" in the conf folder
done

Thanks, but now my computer is telling me I "don't have permission to save in this location" to contact administrator. 
any thoughts. 

Again, I know all of this is simple to you guys, but it is brand new to me, so I really appreciate you helping me with this.

If you're on Windows. Go to start menu and find Notepad (on 7 should be in Accessories). Right click on Notepad and "open as administrator". Then you will be able to save to that folder.

Thanks for that, it accepted.  

The file name is NXT, I supposed   "nxt.properties" somehow translates to "nxt"

I'd like to issue an asset but before doing the real thing, I was wondering if you had a "test net" type of thing I could use to practice on?

Yes, here's a public node that's running testnet: http://jnxt.org:6876/

I'm in, thanks everyone ...

what does this mean: "The testnet peer port is 6874, the peer is working offline."?

Code:

I'll reveal the text (its hash is above) after my bitcoinpaul count exceeds applauds.

In 21 days it will become irrelevant, so I add a deadline on 1st of April.

PS: If those 4 persons who already gave me 4 bitcoinpauls are not satisfied with the altered version of the agreement then they can contact me via PM and I'll refund the bitcoinpauls back to them.

I have no idea.   It probably means it's not connected to any peers but from what I see demo works as it should.

I could not do any transactions because there were no dummie funds in the account.  The site said that if there were no funds in the account to try another, so I tried another and another all to no avail. 3 up and down nothing workable.

Just click again start demo. I did it few times and got 25k demo nxt.

Someone is stealing them it seems lol

After sending 98 NXT to my account I tried to update the account with a name, however the system would not accept my passphrase  as it turns out somehow I was using the wrong account.    I apparently was logged into this account first: NXT-UKHZ-LNEB-2F3K-3ELSH and sent funds there.  After I logged out, I was logged back into this account: NXT-N74K-UZXT-RWU2-C6KSX   (no money)

Do I have two accounts on my computer, did I somehow send fund to my testnet wallet?  What could have happened?
 
Is there a way that I could change my Pass Phrase?

[kamronk]

Does NXT already have a hardware based wallet available? If not, would the community be interested in one?

It would be much like a rasberry pi wallet kind of device, except on a more robust odroid board.

Since NXT is a web based wallet, it would be accessible via this device if you plugged a monitor/mouse/keyboard into it, as well as would be accessible to any other computer you have on the LAN of the device.

I can whip up more documentation as necessary, but am trying to gauge the interest before investing the time it would take to get a standard img ready.

What wallet are yo uusing?

Your password is your nxt account. Use the same password, and you will login to the same account.

Yes, I'm currently using jnxt.org/vapor
Downloaded the html to my raspi, done.
Now I have a cold hardware wallet

edit: blackyblack1 is working on making a trezor that works with Nxt.

Is this on testnet? The thing with Nxt is that each passphrase enters a different account. So when you enter two different accounts, means that you entered a different passphrase the second time to the first. To get back to the account with 98NXT you'll need to figure out the mistake you made with your passphrase. Maybe you left a space at the end or something?

The Nxt forum had a feature to give positive and negative "karma" points to people. Since the legendary member bitcoinpaul had a large amount of good and bad karma, and he wore the negative points with pride (his karma has do be balanced at all times), the mods decided to rename the function of leaving negative karma to bitcoinpauling.
