Hello everyone! I am new here so tell me if im in the wrong place.
Some years ago I mined BitCoin and used Armory as my wallet. Now however, I only have my paper backup but unfortunately my Mac refuses to open the program. I tried to install a virtual machine and after a lot of work I managed to open Armory, but then the program was offline, and I could not retrieve any information than what I already had. After searching around I figured out that I have to download the entire blockchain (100GB+) for it to work, but that will not work for me.
So my question is:
1. Is there any way for me to check my balance without downloading the entire blockchain?
2. Can I transfer my balance to an online wallet?
3. Does anyone know how to open Armory on High Sierra?
Any answers will be highly appreciated

Why wouldn't it work to download the whole blockchain, maybe you can do it in steps, 30GB this month, etc. I honestly think it's not possible for you to restore your coins withouth getting the program to sync with the network, because that's basically what it's doing when it gets the chain.
