I just loaded up Bitcoin Qt for the first time in weeks to see if I got a dividend and it is killing my macbook. I have some direct shares, any way for me to verify those without having to download the whole blockchain?
I had problems with Bitcoin Qt before but now it's even worse. Everything else on my computer works fine but when I use Bitcoin Qt my macbook gets way too hot (much hotter than when I do anything else) and doing anything is obnoxiously slow.

Yes, you can copy the public address that the divs are registered to in bitcoin-qt, and paste it into the blockchain.info search bar. It should give you the current balance and all transactions of that address, including your div payouts.

Unrelated note: I still haven't received any divs on my single share. I'm 100% sure I'm checking the right address--I cross referenced it to the verification I received from friedcat when I exported from havelock. Huh

Someone did mention over the last few pages that anyone with one share would probably not receive a div , as the payment was too small, something to do with the tx fee I believe, but I only skim read it as it was not relevant to me, but maybe that is why.
