You have more than one wallet on your computer. Make sure you pay attention to the wallet name in the electrum window title. You don't want to receive money to a 2fa wallet you can't spend from.
Topic: google auth not working 'otp invalid' (Read 611 times)
are you sure about that?
Did you not create the wallet when online?
Although, that shouldn't matter as when you went to open the wallet next time, it should ask for the same thing...

Yes indeed, i was triying with creating a Simple Auth wallet.. with a SAME wallet created i can choose a SINGLE Auth after some config.
i got back my btc
but i'm still enoyed by this problem: during the installation no request of config a google auth required!! so you can imagine the surprise when it asks for transfert a google code...
Anyway, Thanks for your help!!

When you try to restore with your seed... are you restoring to a "Standard" wallet... or a "2FA wallet"?
To restore, you need to restore to a "2FA wallet", as apparently it uses a specific type of seed: http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/2fa.html#restoring-from-seed

Note: The “restore” option should be used only if you no longer want to use TrustedCoin, or if there is a problem with the service. Once you have restored your wallet in this way, two of three factors are on your machine, negating the special protection of this type of wallet.
So, if you still wish to use 2FA, you will need to create a new 2FA wallet and send your coins there. no one is aware about my problem of google auth?
thanks

If you never set up a wallet with 2FA using Google Auth or similar, you would indeed have to recreate the wallet from your seed. Creating a normal wallet with your seed should work without issues.
What 'Please wait' screen are you getting stuck on? Is this happening after you try to restore from the seed?
