I have some problems with moving my coins from Multibit HD to Electrum..
I have only 1 more transaction left that is unconfirmed in Multibit HD but i wanted to use Electrum. I try to import it with my private keys ( 12 words ) of Multibit HD but nothing happens ? I opened Electrum, go to File, New/Restore, Standard Wallet, I already have a seed. Options: Select BIP39 seed. Paste my Multibit HD seed. Select account 0 and finish. It just shows me i have 0 balance and if i open Multibit HD i can still see my balance. Huh

if you used electrum should make sure you used the correct derivation path. if you cant restore, you may used the beta version multibit wallet. which has incompatible bip 32 process to produce your privatekey in multibit hd. then need do a case by case work.
