start the qt wallet with -rescan parameter

Awesome, that worked! Took about 10 minutes before it finally opened, but it's good to go now. Thanks!

I am trying to import a private key into Bitcoin-QT 0.9.1.

In console I did the following:

Code:
walletpassphrase "YourLongPassphrase" 600
importprivkey

In receiving addresses, my address shows now that it imported. However, my wallet balance does not include this newly added bitcoin address. It is fully synced at the latest block. If I go to blockchain.info and view the address, it shows bitcoin in it. It just will not show in Bitcoin-QT. I have tried to close the wallet and re-open it, and it is still not showing the balance.

Any suggestions?
