(repost from Newbie/Help forum)

So I don't know what to make of this... Maybe I didn't RTDM?

The following image shows that I'm getting an insufficient funds error when trying to send .927 Bitcoin to another address. It can clearly be seen that my account has more than enough to cover the transaction. I had just input about .913 from coins I purchased from Coinbase to make a Bitcoin payment on another website but didn't want to do the transaction directly from Coinbase. Now, I don't even know. Wow! How can it even begin to tell me I only have .0493 available??

The next image shows what might be going on here. Quite a while ago I purchased some hashpower from a mining farm and they have been making very small payments every day. I just kinda forgot about it as a bad investment. But going in and looking at the transactions I see what might be going on...

A .0071 transaction fee for a .00012726 transaction? At todays rate, they are charging me about $1.53 to input less than 3 pennies?!? Why wouldn't they notify me? Why wouldn't they reflect that fee in my total balance? Is this some kind of joke or accident?

Did I seriously just throw my $200 into a wallet that won't let me get it out again??

Ok, turns out I'm ignorant.

I was able to get the majority out by exporting and importing my keys into a new wallet.

Got scared there for a bit.

Might be your total balance came from many addresses with dust or unspent balance. And blockchain will charge more than 0.0001 fee because your transaction has large data size.
