Thanks again,

Yes, I think I will just send via a transaction.

The main reason I am doing this is to end up with a 'Cold Storage' wallet. If its not too much to ask, can you instruct me on how to create a cold storage wallet, or can you point me to a good site which explains it?

Thanks ....

I am considering replacing multibit with mycelium. But I need access to the private key in mycelium to do this.

I tried to import the key from clipboard, but the option is greyed out even after copying the test to the clipboard.

How do I get the clipboard import option to be active?

Hi,

I need a little assistance.

I exported my private key from my multibit wallet, but could not work out how to import into Myceluim. I assumed I could import the key file, but there was no file import option. So I copied the content of the key file to the clipboard, but the 'read from clipboard' option was greyed out.

I then scanned the QR code from multibit which worked, so now I can see the balance in Mycelium, but it does not contain the private key.

How can I import the private key?

Thanks
Andy

Thanks for the help .. what a great community Smiley

So by a "cold wallet", or "cold storage" you mean a hard copy printout of the private keys?

What I am currently doing is regularly (once a month) converting some cash savings to bitcoin using ANXPRO, and sending the bitcoin to my multibit address. I keep backups of my multibit wallet. If I import my private key to Mycelium, will it be the same address as in multibit and if so what happens to the random address that Mycelium created on startup?

Can I import the multibit wallet directly into Mycelium or only the private keys?

Thanks again
Andy

Hi,

I am very new to bitcoin.

Is there any simple documentation available explaining Mycelium for those of us who are just starting out?

My first basic question is ...

I currently have a multibit wallet containing bitcoins. What's the easiest way to tell Mycelium about my multibit wallet? If I then get BTC sent to my bitcoin address, I assume it will be reflected in both multibit and Mycelium.

Thanks
Andy
