BitcoinSanDiego:
Check which version you are on. We fixed one problem which caused the S error earlier. These are the latest versions:
$ factom-cli properties
Protocol Version: 0.1.5
factomd Version: 0.3.2
fctwallet Version: 0.1.2
factom-cli Version: 0.1.2
I made a more forgiving converter for the 12 words. There was at least one case where the token sale generated 12 words with an invalid checksum. This software also recovers the private key for those.
This is what it gives when you give it 12 words from the token sale
$ go run wordRecovery.go
Enter 12 words from Koinify here: xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx
Your Factoids were found in the bitcoin blockchain.
you can use the 12 words to import the Factoids into a wallet.
The corresponding public and private keys are:
Factoid Private Key: Fs3xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Factoid Address: FA3xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

if you purchased factoids in one of these btc transactions:

Brian,
I am running the latest version of the Factom wallet software:
Protocol Version: 0.1.5
factomd Version: 0.3.2
fctwallet Version: 0.1.2
factom-cli Version: 0.1.2
I also ran the wordrecovery binary in Windows PC and it gave me Bitcoin transaction ids but it did not give me a public key or private key, as shown in your post. When I tried the wordrecovery-mac binary on Macbook it didn't work because it's not executable program.
My last resort is to try installing GO and that route. I'm wondering why I don't get the same results using wordrecovery.exe as you showed
