EDIT: I got it. I verified it on the same page after generation.
It works now.
There should be a send button to actually send the signed msg instead of all these steps.
This is the most confusing deal I have seen.
I can't get a payment from Canary because he requires my payment address to be signed. Not a problem at all with Canary I appreciate his care with escrow.
I have signed plenty of purchases yet to receive money how do I send him a signed one to do that?
I use blockchain. I go to receive money and sign and put in the message he asked for. Then I click sign. It generates a code and that's it. It will not verify when I check. Canary can't verify it. There is no send button after I generate either. What the heck do I do to get this signed and verifiable for Canary??
I am a MSCNE I have seen some pretty messed up ways to do things but this takes the dam cake.
CanaryInTheMine I am sorry for the delay this is just not an intuitive way to get this done.
Thanks for any help you all can give me.

I'm having the same problem. Using blockchain.info wallet.

The guys at Amazon must just look at this and shake their heads. They have absolutely nothing to fear in terms of Bitcoin becoming a currency. What a silly bunch of hoo-hah.......
Earlier today, I stopped at Super America (a convenience store in Minnesota). I bought two items, and the cash part of my visit consumed maybe 30 seconds. I was done before Bitcoin could have figured out which way was up. I really don't get Bitcoin as a currency. Highly speculative commodity sure, but not currency.

The same can be said about credit cards, but they are accepted all over the world.
The way you pay cash at the counter involves a lot of background activity, which isn't for free. Whenever you draw notes out of an atm, there are costs involved (even if you are not seeing it directly, but you pay for it sooner or later). When the merchant counts the money and brings it to his bank, there are again costs, but he must pay his invoices and he can't do it with cash. Most people don't see the costs that cash or credit cards implicate, but it's there and we pay for it.

This is called the "early adopter" phase, although the innovators here might not agree with that. 80% of consumers are sheep, followers that think of one goal associated with money: Spending it. Buying coffee, gas, new shoes, etc- the early and late majority represent the consumer segment, and for them to adopt BTC into their lives it needs to be simplified, it needs a better user experience, specifically for daily spending activity on the go. No one is arguing about the role of BTC in this very moment; it is essentially a speculative investment vehicle for high-risk trading types, a way to quickly transfer funds, and a spending tool for all us nerds that understand it. All in due time friends, if we build it they will come, maybe, if there's some focus on UX eventually.

Finally figured it all out, used the address that I found on blockchain.info, singed message, switched tabs to verify message with ALL info used to sign the message, I wasn't copying the actual message and that is where I went wrong... doh!
Thanks!

He'll see the payment, but without signing a message you can't prove that it was you who sent the payment.

Stop using testnet.
You should see your payment to canary under transactions.

What address did you send the coins from? Sign a message with that and post it here.
That is just it? How do I find that out? I have no clue where it was sent from!
I know I sent it, from what?
Thanks!
