Be sure to sweep it if you bought it.  Smiley
I didn't (came from my paper wallet) but that's great advice. Newbies take note.

You could try to reset your Chrome user profile rather than re-installing the whole thing if you like. If your on Win 7 it should be here:

C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\

Just rename it by adding "Backup" to the end of its name and you should get a new user profile.
If that still doesn't work than yeah your going to have to re-install I'm afraid.

That's really weird...I tried on Safari and its just where you said. I've never had problems w/blockchain on Mozilla before. Weird...
Thanks for the help

No problems Smiley If the problem persists make sure you clear your cache and if it still occurs then just a do complete reinstall of Chrome. I'm running Chrome at the moment so I don't think it's a browser issue, prolly just the cache/cookies.
Cleared my whole cache-still the same thing. Too lazy to reinstall Chrome ATM lol. I'll just use Safari when I need to import/export keys. Very weird though.

Hm... when I posted that I personally tested it by logging into my account, so it doesn't seem to be a server side issue. What browser are you using and have you tried clearing the cache and cookies?
I'm on Mozilla...I'll do that and try Safari.

In your tabs once you've logged into the blockchain site you should see "Wallet Home", "My Transactions" etc. At the far right there is a tab that says "Import/Export" which is the one your looking for if you want to import a private key.
Thanks for the suggestion. I remember it being quite easy to import keys...but now I can't find the option anywhere. This is what my "Wallet Home" looks like:

I feel like a n00b again. I have a private key I want to import to my blockchain wallet. I can't find any import/export link. Am I missing something? I feel like a fool.
