Old wallet gone?????????
-
You are making some progress now… No I have not gotten any update alerts… I went to my old computer and downloaded the wallet software. this time the balance shows up. but at the bottom it says NO block chain available… and I am 3 years 47 weeks behind… I went to the tab and made a back up on my external drive… dont know if that will help or not… so I don’t think I can send or receive anything

I think you are the one making progress.
If you downloaded the new wallet and your balance showed up. Just leave it open for a bit and let it try and connect to some nodes and start syncing.
The message “No blockchain available” means it hasn’t connected to any Feathercoin nodes to download the blockchain.
If you see your coins - wait for the sync to finish and then you will be able to spend them.

I suggest you do some research then :-)
your collection of 402 FTC is worth 0.01202382 BTC at current trading prices
0.01202382 BTC to USD = $181.86 at current trading prices.
If you can be bothered to browse around the forum and read, you’ll see there’s tons of resources and information on the coin…if you want to learn about it.
this link shows you the exchanges that currently support FTC - See the first post.

Marking as solved since @GLcoin1 reported that they downloaded the new client and was able to see their balance.

Are you talking about the new wallet with Version 0.9.6.2 or your old one?

You can copy the blockchain over to the other computer (the one with the transactions) when the sync completes. You can also copy the peers.dat, it may help the other PC connect. If not copy the wallet.dat to the synced PC.

@GLcoin1 - can you please try to be as specific as possible if people are going to take time out of their days to provide free support to you.
I am trying to decipher your posts…
You have 2 computers. Both of them have a copy of Feathercoin-qt installed.
Are both machines running 0.9.6.2 ?
On Machine1 - The client refuses to sync but you can see your coins ?
on Machine2 - The client syncs, but your balance says zero ?Is this correct ?
Also can you please explain this line:
I can view the paper wallet on the screen but it will not print out… -
OK so here is the update. Computer #2 finally finshed syncing.
I went an backed up the wallet.
then I went to the old computer and got the wallet dat file. I took that and replaced the wallet dat file on the new computer…
NOW the new computer IS synced AND the balances show up!!!BUT when I go to the menue to print out the paper wallet the wallet show up on the screen with the address and qr code, but when I click “print” it never prints…
I do think that the Send and Receive functions work but I am not sure because I cant find an exchange that will take FT…sooo close but no cigar yet…
