Ah, it worked instantly this time. The last time I tried it, it sat there reporting "Synchronizing..." for an hour without any progress.
Synchronization should take a few seconds, not minutes.
In some cases the synchronization process fails, and it shows 'synchronizing' forever; I will try to fix that in the next release.

Yeah - that can happen "Synchronizing". Best to close and restart. If that doesn't work try a different server.
Glad you are all set!

I saw another topic with this name, but thought it would be a better idea to start a new topic for my own problem.
I have an old seed, from one of the original releases, and I've checked that at least a few of the words are in the old words list. Should it take a long time to recover history from such a seed? I assume it could probably take hours, or possibly days.

If you have the seed it will take no time at all.
Just download the 2.1.1 version, recover wallet, enter seed, enjoy...
