Yes the address still shows up in my receiving list but i have a balance of Zero. Will this be timing issue?

It looks like a synchronization problem. What version of Electrum do you have? Versions older than 3.3.0 can't connect to the servers now. Download the latest version from the official website. Make sure to verify the installer. If you have the latest version then try changing the server by clicking on the dot in the bottom-right corner.

Have the latest version 4.0.0

Have changed the address manually and it has reconnected .

Still showing a balance of 0.

Baffled what has happened

Anyone know if its possible to retrieve?

Electrum automatically changes the address in the 'Receive' tab once you receive some coins to it. You can reuse it as many times as you want. If you see your transaction in the 'History' tab then everything is fine. Since you sent it to yourself, you should see that a small amount of coins has been deducted from your wallet (a transaction fee). You can see a list of your addresses by selecting 'View-> Show Addresses' and going to 'Addresses' tab.

Really appreciate the prompt reply.

Yes the address still shows up in my receiving list but i have a balance of Zero. Will this be timing issue?

As when i check the address on Blockchain i can see the full amount in the address which is in my receiving list.

Any help appreciated

Hi all,

So hoping someone could help me in regards to something i have just done.

I sent money to my electrum wallet from Blockchain using my receiving address.

So when i was sending it from my electrum wallet i used the same address as my receiving one above by mistake.

I can see the coin at the address but its not my receiving address anymore.

Anyone know if its possible to retrieve?

Many Thanks for looking and any help appreciated
