namecoin needs more wallet options
why Namecoin wallet synchronizing lasts too long?
I have also created a paper wallet from namecoinia and I'm trying to import the wallet into my namecoin-qt using the importprivkey {private_key} command, but I'm getting an "Invalid private key (code -5)" error, so I'm not sure if it works.
Anyone successfully imported one of these wallets?
To do this, open namecoin-qt, go to "Help->Debug Window" and then switch to the "Console" tab, you can enter commands there, like: importprivkey {private_key}

Hmm, when I run: namecoind /? I get the following list of commands:
Options:
-conf=
-pid=
-gen
-gen=0
-min
-datadir=
-dbcache=
-timeout=
-proxy=
-dns
-addnode=
-connect=
-nolisten
-noupnp
-paytxfee=
-mininput=
han this (default: 0
-testnet
-rpcuser=
-rpcpassword=
-rpcport=
-rpcallowip=
-rpcconnect=
-keypool=
-rescan
I'm not seeing the import private key option anywhere... Is there a wiki/ document somewhere that explains this?
Thanks!!

You should use the GUI Namecoin client, follow the guide here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/How_to_import_private_keys_v7%2B.
It's for Bitcoin, but AFAIK, should work the same for Namecoin.

You see the importprivkey command in the debug window console.

Thanks Injust, I was totally unaware that there was a Namecoin block explorer- it makes complete sense that there would be though.
Thank you for that link, I can now view my balance at least, but I'm still unsure of how to use my private key to transfer the NMC to another online wallet.
Any ideas on that one?
Thanks!

you can use the namecoin wallet (www.namecoin.info) and importprivkey to import it

Look up your Namecoin address in a Namecoin block explorer, like http://bitinfocharts.com/namecoin/explorer/ (just something I pulled up from Google)
You can't use a Bitcoin block explorer with a Namecoin address

Any help here?

Hello everyone,
I had some Namecoins held at BTC-e that I decided I wanted to move to paper wallets. I found this website: http://namecoinia.org/ and created a NMC+BTC Single Wallet which had both Namecoin and Bitcoin public addresses, as well as a Private key that is supposed to work for both NMC and BTC.
I sent my namecoins from BTC-e to the public namecoin address that I created. The namecoins have been deducted from my BTC-e account.
My question is, how do I view the namecoin balance that was sent to the paper wallet I created, and secondly, how do I send/spend those namecoins somewhere else?
I've checked blockchain.info for both the namecoin public address and the bitcoin public address. The namecoin address says it is invalid, and the bitcoin address shows zero balance.
I've searched and searched and haven't found much material on namecoin paper wallets, how to check balances or spend them. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thank you
