Help.....

Using version 0.8.7.1 I dumped my private key and, on another machine, loaded version 0.8.7.2 then fully sync'ed. From the console did an import private key and my old wallet address appeared along with the new wallet address, but not the coins. Deleted all but the wallet.dat and re-sync'ed, still no coins. Can I send the coins from the old wallet to the new wallet as I even tried using the old wallet.dat but the new version failed to load.

Help......

Hi,

I think I can help you.

The old wallet.dat can only be used in 0.8.7.1. Do the exact same thing you did before. Start up 0.8.7.2 without a wallet.dat in your roaming/zerovert folder. Let it fully sync. Then, importprivkey yourprivkey in the console.

If your coins don't show up:

edit: Step 0: Close currently running qt
1. Windows key+r
2. Type cmd
3. Hit enter
4. C:/restofpathwayto/zerovert-qt.exe -rescan (ie. if you put the folder in your C: drive C:/Zerovert/zerovert-qt.exe -rescan)
edit: 5. Hit enter

That fixed it, right?

Did'nt work, I tried several times getting the same error on startup:

EXCEPTION: St12out_of_range
vector::_M_range_check
C:\Program Files (x86)\Zerovert\zerovert-qt.exe in Runaway exception

The old wallet still syncs up to the latest block, why can't I just send them to the new wallet address?

New wallet address is the same as the old wallet address. Your coins are safe. You just aren't able to access them. Trying to send them to another address will create more headaches and makes no sense.

Try this again and it should be easier since you did it once already:

Step 1: Back up everything in case it doesn't work.
Step 2: Throw out roaming folder.
Step 3: Move the Zerovert folder you launch with (that contains zerovert-qt.exe - the 0.8.7.2 version) to your C: drive.
Step 4: Sync up 0.8.7.2 wallet
Step 5: Go to console and do the importprivkey yourprivkey thing
Step 6: Close running qt
Step 7: Windows key+r
Step 8: Type cmd
Step 9: Hit enter
Step 10: Type the following in command console:
C:\Zerovert\zerovert-qt.exe -rescan
Step 11: Hit enter
(Try to do steps 7-11 before another block is mined. (Meaning, you want to be synced while doing 7-11. That's up to 10 minutes so it shouldn't be difficult; just don't take a break after you close the qt.)

edit: Also, you have to make sure the program is closed before starting it again through windows or command console. Otherwise, you'll get an error. You can click that little arrow near the bottom right to see if it's still running.

edited this a few times for clarity

If you follow that exactly and it doesn't work, what OS are you using?
