I HAVE NOT BEEN ON FOR AWHILE. I OPENED MY GUNCOIN WALLET. A YELLOW BANNER APPEARED AND STATED THAT I HAVW THE V 1.4 VERSION AND I NEED TO UPDATE IMMEDIATELY.  IHAVE A MAC.  I DOWNLOADED FROM THE SUGGESTED MAC VERSION ON THE PAGE 1 GUNCOIN INFORMATION. IT IS NOT WORKING FOR ME. WHAT HAVE I DONE WRONG? I AM NOT EXTREMELY EDUCATED IN ALL THE LINGO USED TO DO THIS PROPERLY SO IF ANYONE CAN GUIDE ME IN "DUMMY" ENGLISH I WOULD SURELY APPRECIATE IT.   
THANK YOU

OK, first welcome back to the community.  Next yes, we did send a message through wallets running 1.4, 1.5 and 1.5.1 that they needed to upgrade ASAP.  So glad you got that.  I do not use a MAC, so cannot give you detailed instructions, hoping others can help with it.  I would suggest to make sure that you go to the GITHUB site at https://github.com/guncoin/guncoin/releases and make sure you get the most current version and try it again.  We have seen no other MAC issues.

Keep downloading and when I go to open it I keep getting the same message..Guncoin Core 5” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.
What do you think I am doing wrong???

We have had Guncoin since its inception in 2014. Unfortunately due to health and life everyday circumstances we have not been on the computer for quite awhile. We are getting back into the crypto world. Our Guncoin wallet will not sync. We are truly not technically savvy. Can anyone teach us how to get to where we need to be?? Would appreciate any help that can be given, Thanks

I have one concern and that is that your original wallet was not a Neoscrypt wallet - it was pure scrypt back then.  So we can try and see if this works.

1) Go to https://github.com/guncoin/guncoin/releases/tag/v1.3.1.0 and download the Windows self-extracting file.

2) Backup your wallet.data file in your Users/App Data Guncoin directly (not necessary, but generally a good idea)

3) Run the windows exe file.  The wallet will load and then will have to resync with the network.  Your coins should show up there.



Running the new wallet should sync with the old coins no problem!!

Backing up beforehand is always smart though.  Smiley


Another way to back your coins up is to manually create a paper wallet by going into your help menu and select the debug window option and  then the console tab....  On the command line of the console, type the command 'dumpprivkey' then your wallet address then you will see a private key generate...  Copy both lines of your private key and  wallet address and then repaste it in a Wallet.docx file and also physically print it out and there you have it, your paper wallet... No need to goto to a dubious website...  Assuming you've lost your backed up Wallet.dat file or your hardrive has crashed or files were erase you can load back your paper wallet into the network by simply going back to the console window and type in 'importprivkey'  then  cut and paste your private key address from your Wallet.docx file or manually type each Numeric Letter directly from your physical printed saved paper wallet (pain in the ass ) and your coins should appear once again.

I have a MAC would your instructions be any different?






Thank you so much for your help. I did the what you said and backed up my old wallet and then went to page ! for the Mac wallet. At first I was afraid I did something wrong but after a few tweaks it started loading!!!!  Everything turned out fine and I am now on V1.4 !!!! Thanks so much

1.4 wallet - Heads up, everyone must upgrade in 8 to 10 days...

What happens if we can't do the upgrade? Or is this just for mining pools? My wallet is an original and I am very uneducated as to how to upgrade

Are you using the latest 1.3.1 wallet? If you are on an old version you will need to update to the newer wallet. There is a link to download it on the first page of this thread; be sure to make a backup of your current wallet.dat before doing any updates to ensure that your coins are safe. Smiley


Thanks....glad to know someone is willing to help.
I'm not sure what all that means but I will check it out asap
Thankyou once again.
