Hi.

I'm having a problem with my wallet om my mac. When I try to start the program, Bitcoin-Qt, it shows me an error "Bitcoin-Qt: Failed to read block" and then crashes. This happens everytime I open the wallet, making my bitcoins stuck inside..

Anyone knows what could be the reason? And how to fix it? Smiley

Thanks,
Dymix.

I would back up wallet right away - (to multiple sources not just 1 place) -

Then uninstall program, reinstall from scratch

copy the wallet over at the end and see if it works...

Could be dying/bad RAM or bad hard drive
