Could someone post instructions how to run pywallet on a mac? Or another way to cancel/delete unconfirmed transactions on Mac.
I think i'll need to delete this transcaction:

Or maybe wait to see if it ever will be confirmed? If yes, in how many days in average???
I made this transaction from my Bitcoin-QT wallet and accidentally used 0 fee...

Please help me!

It will probably confirm eventually, but it could take several days.

I haven't had much luck running pywallet on a Mac.  You could manually build a new wallet that doesn't include the transaction by using importprivkey, but it would be a lot of work, and probably not worth the effort.

If it hasn't confirmed after a few days, you could import just the private keys associated with that particular transaction and create a raw transaction spending the same inputs but paying a transaction fee.


Ok, but how to import or export priv key for a specific transaction on Bitcoin-QT?
Do i have to create a new wallet in the end or use the same wallet to send raw transaction? And also i don't have the balance to send again so i guess, or i have to wait until confirmed or delete transaction and wait until the funds return back.
