wallet from 2014 wont sync
-
thanks, i will do your steps… but before i do… how do i get the coins from the old wallet into the new one… as i presume the new wallet is empty… and another question… something i dont recall … if the wallet is out of date… would it still show the amount of coins i actualy have… or does that appear when in sync… thanks for your help so far… new to the forum… old owner of feathers tho :)

@coinsbee your wallet.dat file contains all the information of the wallet (public and private key), it’s just your actual wallet program is out of date. Installing a newer version of Feather Core and pasting in the old wallet.dat file into the folder will just update it and keep all of your old addresses

@coinsbee
Sorry I forgot to describe the last, but very important stepSee my updated response above
-
i will try , read it wellenreiter
-
and replacing i do in the command line area?? installed new one… old one still on computer and usb stick… have seen the wallet.dat … but as a layman i dont know where to replace …
-
@coinsbee what OS are you using?
-
windows vista from 2007 with 32 bits… so it might take a few weeks to get wallet up and running… dont laugh please… i have other scills :)
-
@coinsbee should be under c:/users/<your user>/app data/roaming/feathercoin/
Just replace the new wallet.dat file with the old one you backed up, and then sync to the network. Also as a side note, 0.9.6.2 has just been released a few minutes ago which should be a lot faster syncing compared to 0.9.6.1 which I imagine you’ve just downloaded -
yes , the new one is downloading now… still 4 years and 16 weeks to go… i will wait first when wallet is in sync and then try to replace… somehow… its a bit freaky doing this… money in the no… dont wanne make mistakes… … i will drop a line when its working… or replacing old for new one … as i guess its better to wait to do wallet.dat replacing ?? thanks for your help so far by the way… greetings from Holland

@coinsbee did you already get hold of the 0.9.6.2 version?
it’s released about 30 minutes ago and much faster to sync than the older versions -
@coinsbee I wouldn’t waste your time with 0.9.6.1, it’ll take days or a week to sync. Definitely grab 0.9.6.2 from github
-
got the 0.9.6.1 version… didnt know about new one.
-
Well it’s online only about one hour now ;)
-
joking right … havent looked at my wallet for over 3 years and then today a new one… well … i always think… if its not on the official website… dont touch it

this is opensource…you should look at the “offical github” as well.

-
as i am writing now anyway… this is what i wrote to coindesk…
Dear Omkar,
My name is xxxxxxxxI came up with a new personolized graph system for crypto’s
But i cant make the app but still i wonder if you want to write about it.
At least some credit for my thoughts :)Its not out there yet
An app that if you buy your bitcoins (alt) you have your own graph
So the amount you buy in dollars / euro’s etc etc turns into a graph in comparisent with the valua of bitcoins/alt
So you can see what you own in a graph…This app does not exits yet, again i hope you wanne write about it and mention my name.
Look forward hearing from you and if you decide to write about it , send me a massage.
Regards,
Robert
