It depends if your wallet is encrypted or not. These instructions are for the bitcoin wallet, but the litecoin instructions are probably exactly, or almost the same.
If it's not encrypted
click on 'help' in the menu bar (top right) click on 'debug window' select the 'console' type: dumpprivkey [your public key here]
If it's encrypted
click on 'help' in the menu bar (top right) click on 'debug window' select the 'console' tab type: walletpassphrase "your walletpassphrase here" 600 type: dumpprivkey [your public key here] this will return the private key, you can copy it now; ensure you clear your clipboard/history afterwards type: walletlock
Basically you just type dumpprivkey VqJtLt476Vc7zTHZarqSihLDqv1J5Rmr6 if your address is VqJtLt476Vc7zTHZarqSihLDqv1J5Rmr. Your wallet returns the private key for your address, and you can import your private key into a new wallet using importprivkey [your private key here]
