Thanks for the help.
It worked.

Nevertheless blockchain.info says:

in- and out

received 0.2358 BTC
transmitted 0.2357 BTC
fees 0.0001 BTC
BTC transmitted, estimated 0.00769 BTC

(translated from German to english by me)

What is this line BTC transmitted, estimated [value]?

blockchain info does not know how much you have sent. because there is always a change sent back to you - and they dont know which one is the correct transmitted value

---
blockchain info weiss nicht wieviel du wirklich geschickt hast. jedesmal wenn du bitcoin bekommst sind die quasi zusammenhängend. wenn du die nun einen anderen betrag an jemand anderen schickst bekommst du etwas zurück - nur blockchain.info weiss nicht welche von den beiden transaktionen zurück an dich und welche an den anderen ging. deswegen halt nur "estimated".

Is the balance 0 or does it show the expected balance?

Hi,

I updated botcoin qt Client from Version 0.8.4 (32 Bit) to Version 0.11.2 (64 Bit).
After updating all receive addresses have been removed (or aren't shown any more).

The Problem ist that I got a payment to one of this not any more shown bitcoin addresses.

Is it possible to add my old receive addresses again to the bitcoin qt Client?

In the blockchain I can find this Transaction with the transaction-ID I got from the sender. It also Shows that those bitcoins haven't been transmitted yet.

I have an backup of my wallet.dat and know the address it was sent to.

So would it help to Import my old wallet.dat or install the old Client and Import the wallet.dat then on another Client and disabling the program on my main Client while doing that?

The key pairs for this address should be written down in the wallet.dat - is that correct?

yes all private keys are in your wallet.dat
i suggest you backup the wallet.dat and try your old one and see if the coins are there....good luck

btw. this should not happen. updates dont mess with wallet.dat.
