what's the significance of having an HTML5-based wallet (as opposed to a Qt wallet?)?

Having an HTML5 wallet has 4 main benefits:

1. It's far more visually appealing and user-friendly than a Qt wallet.
2. It's easy to modify the underlying code to support more features, as it is written in Javascript rather than C++.
3. We will have support for third-party skins, so that you can customize the look of your wallet.
4. We can release on it on a reasonable time-frame (if we had written one in C++ with Qt from scratch it would have taken months).

Cool - so what are the disadvantages? I mean, why isn't everyone doing this?

Many have tried and many have failed. It is a big task and need top developers to build a new html5 crypto wallet, I/Ocoin has the developers who are more than up to the job and in a few days people will see why.  Also with the new wallet being HTML5 based, it makes it more Apple friendly and increases our chances of getting our new html5 wallet added to the Apple App store.

There are no disadvantages only advantages as much more can be created using HTML5 over the old QT client.

Simply put, most coins just don't have developers who can pull this off.

Also with the new wallet being HTML5 based, it makes it more Apple friendly and increases our chances of getting our new html5 wallet added to the Apple App store.

The technology used in the HTML5 wallet is not compatible with iOS and we don't plan on releasing it for iOS. Sorry if you got the wrong impression.

This is true.

Hello everyone.

Just wanted to announce that I've just finished implementing the last features we will be including in the HTML5 wallet. This means that we just have to do some beta testing and get the wallet daemon compiled on Windows before we can release the wallet.

New wallet not working.

I keep getting 'iocoin-qt.ext' has stopped working.  I'm on Windows 7, 64 bit.  I downloaded the wallet from the website.

I installed it over the old wallet, in the same place.

You need to UNINSTALL the old wallet first through windows programs and files (like a normal uninstall).
Then install the new one.

!! backup your wallet.dat first !!

Done, thanks.  (Uninstalled v2, then tried to uninstall v3 but "it's already been uninstalled".  Then installed v3 again and it worked.)

I thought that a major focus of this coin was making the crypto experience easy for everyone.  Shouldn't there have been a "Let's uninstall the v2 wallet first!" prompt?

Well, I didn't see this    I opened the wallet and it said "Get the upgrade on the website!" so that's what I did.

Happy to see you have got it working now.

It is always good practice to uninstall any previous programs before updating to the news one. As sometimes previous software can leave 'sections' behind that can cause issues for the new update, as what happened to some people when they updated to the new wallet.

Also, make sure to make a new back up of the wallet.dat file when you install a new version
