Topic: Electrum 1.9 released - page 9. (Read 15912 times)
bitcoininformation, have you tried uninstalling it, removing any trace (from appdata if windows), and reinstalling it and restoring it through the seed? That worked for me when I was having problems with the connection.
Electrum 1.8.1 works for me, but 1.9 connects, sync's once and then drops all its connections for no reason. It doesn't matter what I do afterwards. Yes, I have deleted the BlockChain headers and all the other file, no my Firewalls doesn't block it. Nothing helps.
For those of us who use the Ubuntu version is it ok using the older version since theirs no new update for Ubuntu? Will using the older version on Ubuntu cause any security issues?
All latest versions works on Ubuntu. Do you mean the slowaes error while installing in Ubuntu 13.10?
Code:
$ sudo apt-get install python-slowaes

I also temporarily removed the portable build from the website; it was broken.
apologies for the mishap; I hope we will soon have a fixed build

I just made 1.9.1 packages, that fix a few regressions: --offline mode, portable mode.
I hope we will soon have binaries from Animazing.

ok, if you are reporting a regression, please mention if it occured with the "windows portable" build
I use the portable windows build and it seems nothing is stored. Even more. It seems like everything was set back to default after starting 1.9. currency, language and so on.

Is there a secret to getting the window and column sizes to stick in v1.9? They go back to default after I change tabs or close and reopen the program. In v1.8.1, the sizes and positions are saved automatically. I'm using the portable version on Windows 7.
Also, 1.9 is connecting to random servers no matter what I do. Is this by design? I'd like to be able connect to the same server every time.
Thanks
Scratch that. None of the settings are saving. Not the zeros in the settings, language, plugins...nothing. Reverting to 1.8.1. Also, 1.9 is connecting to random servers no matter what I do. Is this by design? I'd like to be able connect to the same server every time.
Thanks
are the connection problems encountered with portable builds?
Will autoconnect take the SSL-Setting into account? It wont connect to a non-ssl-server?
Something i dont like is that its somehow really hard to make electrum store the windows and table settings. I make the window like i want it, close and reopen electrum and everything is back to default. I change the tables to have more space for the label, edit something and electrum redraws the table, sets me to the start and my changes to columsizes are gone again.

Hi, thanks for the update. Was wondering where the dollar value went though? Why did you get rid of it? It was on the bottom left right next to BTC amount.
It is a plugin now. See Menu Tools -> Plugins -> Exchange rate
Electrum can integrate third party applications as plugins.

Nevermind, it was a plugin lol
Thanks. Auto-connect was enabled. Internet connectivity is normal, version 1.8.1 seems to be working but not 1.9.
if you click ok, it should work.
otherwise, try to select a server manually...
Thanks for your assistance, much appreciated.
I've clicked ok, that was your first instruction, I've also selected a server manually, doesn't work either. It doesn't seem to make sense, perhaps the application has become corrupted somehow so I'll download a clean install from your site and see how that goes. I'll edit this post with the outcome in a couple of minutes. Thanks again for all your help.

Edit: Ok, downloaded the Windows exe and it at first it didn't connect, auto-connect was not checked on install. Checked it, seems to be working fine. There's a difference between this version and the one I downloaded a day or so ago, at least cosmetically, as the icon is not a standard bitcoin B in blue, this new icon is a blue B enclosed in a geometric shape.
Anyway thanks for your help, maybe the original version was tweaked somehow or maybe it was corrupted on my end.
Good luck with it all.
Additional edit: This second 1.9 version has now disconnected after less than ten minutes and won't reconnect to any servers automatically or manually. I'll go back to 1.8.1
I found some old seeds I had when I first started messing around with Electrum; is there any way to find out if there is anything on them without having to re-install?
no you have to reinstall (unless you want to give the coins away)
[edit]: Turns out I had 9 BTC at once on there, but only had 0.01 left over.
