It is of critical importance that private keys are kept secret and safe. Therefore to avoid this happening to any user in the future we have removed the ability to import Blockchain.info 'json' and 'json.aes' wallet backups into MultiBit.

Thank you very much.
I just had to take my dropbox file and put it in my ''downloads'' on my cellphone then apply it in the restore section
Thank you again!

I wish I knew you had another phone ready
Oh well, Im glad you have your coins back.Which is not a base58 private key.
Can anyone help here? I assume the openssl command is wrong.

Hey I've tried that too but it doesn't works properly.

base64 util works.

Not sure if we should maybe make a new thread for this, but I will answer here for the time beeing.
I tried this
Code:
base64 -d encrypted | openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc > decrypted
with my testwallet and it still shows the same result. The results look identical to be honest.
Also on github it states "error reading input file". I dont get that error. Openssl can decrypt the file, but the decrypted data makes no sense or is an format that is not useable. Here is another screenshot directly from the terminal:
I only removed the user@machine:/pathfromroot/ part
This looks like its in hex format, but I checked that as well and it still does not look like a private key.
Thank you very much.

I am not able to use my dropbox file in the restore option
If you have another cellphone, install bitcoin wallet-> download that backup file from dropbox and place it in "Download" folder then try to import.

Try to put the file on the internal storage of your new phone. Then try the steps I provided you.

My other wallet was on my lost cellphone, I backed it up on dropbox, now how can I use my back up wallet file to get back my coins
Like I said:Options -> safety -> restore wallet
That is how to do it

There's no option to enter another identifier, or maybe I just don't know where to type it in
I have no idea about what "identifier" you are talking about. As I said, that isn't part of the bitcoin protocol.
Can you bother to answer the question above and try it out?

I'll rephrase my problem.
I know my identifier, and I remember my password, I just don't know where to log in with it.
When I go to download the application on another cellphone, it gives me a new wallet right away and there's no option to use an old identifier wallet.

That's not how Bitcoin works. What you are saying is App-Specific.
Are you using this app?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schildbach.wallet
The most logical method would be to download the app on another mobile device, and then enter your "identifier" and "password".

If you have a wallet.dat file, import it into blockchain.info. That's like the easiest way of all.
I made a test wallet with the same app. The exported file looks like this:
Code:

YAezgPg=
password is: kkk
When I tried to encrypt it with the command
Code:
openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc -a -in
I get this
Which is not a base58 private key.
Can anyone help here? I assume the openssl command is wrong.
Will also ask the mods to move this to the correct board.

I don't really understand the steps you provided me
you have a PM

If you have linux you can install openssl via the package manager and use the command above.
Same with Mac OS, for Windows you can get the needed files here: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/openssl.htm
Hope this gives you a hint in the right direction. Without more information on the OS you want to restore the keys and into which wallet its hard to help further.

Now the question is how do I recover my wallet? I set up my password on the wallet
Please, it would be really nice if someone could help me.
