Re: is it possible to get private keys using the Armory wallet Root Key?

So...
the latest version of Armory didnt want to open for me so

I installed an earlier release available - 0.96.1, and I was able to open it.
I restored my wallet from the root key.
BUT - I dont see any option to make it show/export the private key.

only thing I can do is "back up" the wallet, which is useless.

How can I see the private key to my wallet?
anyone?

is it possible to get private keys using the Armory wallet Root Key?

Question:

I have a back up seed  (Root Key) for my armory wallet, there is no BTC in it, but there is some Bitcoin Cash there. (prefork wallet, and I moved my BTC away from this wallet last december).
I have not updated bitcoin core nor my armory wallet since there.
Now armory doesnt event start.

so my question is, since I want to get my BCH from that prefork address, and I dont want to be forced to synchronize bitcoin core, -
- can I use the Root Key (from my Paper Backup for Armory Wallet that I printed out initially)
in some application/program to recover my private key?

Or I do HAVE to install armory wallet and recover it there?

thanks in advance.

is it possible to import Armory wallet into any other wallet?

I mean I d like to use the 18 'words' (or more like Smiley 4 letter hashes)
which are the backup for my Armory wallet
in some other wallet. I believe this is "swiping"?

anyway, is it possible?
if yes - in what wallets.



if I am confusing the whole situation, please dont bash me Smiley.


I need to do it to avoid a hard work of trying to move Bcash out of my, (now emptied of Bitcoin) prefork address wallet.

or I am too stupid to see some other easy way to do it.?

thank you for your patient answers... Smiley

Re: how long should it take to show btc in my wallet after sending them?

That's all you need to do. When you open Core, you should not see any out-of-sync overlay or a green bar at the bottom. If you hover over the checkmark at the bottom right hand corner, it will tell you how many blocks it has synced. Compare that to a block explorer to check if you are in sync.

If Core is in sync, then Armory somehow got off sync. With Core running, start Armory. Go to Help > Rebuild and Rescan Databases and click Yes. Then restart Armory. This should fix your problems.

thank you for the answer.
My logical mind is telling me you are of course right.
Just did that... waiting till it builds, shows as 22% 25 more minutes now.


It solved my problem. Thank you again.

If new users do not understand that the Bitcoin Core node has to be fully synced before use the directions and warnings need to be improved.


Indeed.
I do not understand how do I synchronize btc core apart from executing bitcoin-qt, which downloads blocks until it stops and looks synchronized.

then again if I remember correctly I had problems installing armory, and had to do the trick I found in this Forum by unticking setting's option of "Let Armory Run bitcoin core in the background" and running bitcoin-qt to sync.

I am using latest armory release - I should have specified this in the first post, but I assumed the nature of the problem is different.

so now I think the problem is of the nature similar or exact even as here in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1790203.0.

My Armory has not been able to manage the core nor sync with it in any way since the installation.
 
therefore I think my thread should be maybe renamed to:
"My 0.95.1 Armory has not synced with core since its installation - why?"

is it possible for Forum moderator to do that?

I'm confused.  You're talking about it as if you set a receiving address and used them to send?  If you click the send button on Blockchain and do as it says you shouldn't be thinking about what address you're sending from.  Are you sure you actually send these Bitcoins? Can you give the transaction ID so that we can check it?

I used a "receive bitcoins" feature of armory wallet installed in my pc. and address that was generated I used on my onlin blockchain.info/wallet page as the address I should send to.

which one is the transaction ID? some number I suspect Smiley , but which one?

Hello I am new to btc transactions.

I bought 2 bitcoins and had them in an online wallet on blockchain.info.

This morning I decided to move 1 of them to my armory wallet I had created on my PC, so I ofc generated an address to receive bitcoins
and I used this address in my blockchain.info wallet as an address to send bitcoins.

so for now (after 10 hours) it shows on my blockchain.info/wallet page as a confirmed transaction with 30 confirmations,
but I still cant see it in my armory wallet I had sent it to.

can anyone tell me how long it can take to show my bitcoins in my armory wallet after the transaction was made?

Am I missing something?
