Hi Guys,
long story short i mined a few yrs ago and i had a wallet on my pc i also had a iso app Bitwallet that used the same address
since then i have gone through a few Pc's and i cashed in 30 odd thousand UTC in to BTC and i realised i had the Bitwallet on my phone so i got the address from there and move the coins from my exchange then thought i would download the wallet on my new pc now the pc has a different wallet address.
i do not have the original wallet.dat file as it had nothing in it and didn't think to save it now from my phone i cant send the coins to any wallet as it come up with a no private key for the last few transactions.
i know the private pass key p/w is ect is there any way to get these coins out of that wallet ?? is there anything i can do to recover them ?? the coins have only gone in to the wallet in the last few days any help would be appreciated
Regards Gaddo

Make sure to backup your wallet.dat file always.
You should be able to to move the coins from your bitwallet? Does it not have a send feature?
Private keys are randomly generated. Downloading and installing the wallet software will on a new computer will always give you a new address, otherwise everyone would be getting the same addresses and that is not secure.
If you do not have the wallet file and do not have any backups of it, then there is nothing you can do, the Bitcoin is lost. Even knowing the password to your wallet does not help because your password is completely unrelated to the private keys that you need. The password is only for the wallet file and its encryption, but nothing to do with the contents of that file.
