The date you used to use in the 'reset blockchain' screen, you can just use the same date in the import file.
It only has to be before the date of the first transaction, which you could look up from a block explorer.
So this is true but you can try just one time if this check is not passable you can do noting - key is already imported so I don't know how program work and if I import again the same private key with different date if program will start to reset blokchain again from this date - and you know some time you have to 3-4 time reset blockchain for satisfactory result .It only has to be before the date of the first transaction, which you could look up from a block explorer.
So for another think you right but you can keep minimum thinks for advanced users like import and export private keys.
The date you used to use in the 'reset blockchain' screen, you can just use the same date in the import file.
It only has to be before the date of the first transaction, which you could look up from a block explorer.
It is a balance, to get the features 'right' for any particular wallet.
We aim MultiBit (and MultiBit HD even more so) for entry level and novice users so want to keep things simple.
Moving private keys around is quite advanced use (most users are probably a bit fuzzy about what a private key actually is).
Fortunately, there are several teams now working on wallets e.g. Hive, Armory, Electrum and (next year) Dark Wallet so you might be better served by the wallets targets for advanced users.
We don't mind at all if people start off using MultiBit and then, when they want to do more advanced things, move over to different wallets.
We've found over 2013 that some features, whilst useful if you know what you are doing, can sometimes lead users to make mistakes and cause confusion. 'Delete Wallet' is a good example. For the entry level bitcoin user it is almost always a bad idea to delete your wallet. For advanced users such as yourself - sure - you know what they are doing.

When you import a private key it automatically replays the blocks from the key creation date that is in the private key inport file.
See the help article on importing a single private key for the exact format.
Yes - I removed it because it was causing problems.
The reason for its removal was that people would have a problematic transaction that consumed an earlier output in their wallet.
They were doing a reset from the date of the problematic transaction but the earlier transaction also needed to be resynced. It did not fix things.
It is a bit annoying with older wallets but I have had to go for safety over convenience.
You can sync (on coffeeshop wifi) about a year in 5 minutes so it is not too bad.
In a similar vein, you now cannot send before sync is complete. This is to stop people accidentally double spending themselves because they have shared private keys between two wallets and there are spends that need to be added to the wallet. Again, it would be nice not to have to enforce this but it is necessary now with so many users to avoid errors occurring.
I don't understand why you make changes which restrict advanced users.
The other fixes are similar - v0.5.16 is all about trying to close down error paths. Removing the delete wallet functionality entirely is like destroying a sharp knife because it 'cuts' the user more often than not when they use it.
But wen you import private key and you don't know when it is generated like in Bitcoin-Qt wallet you can't try to reset blockcain to earlier date it is not gut solution so I don't like to instal new version - you have to back the calendar and just make impossible to fix date more near then creating the wallet date.

I don't think this is very hard to programme just check if date is before date of creating the wallet and if it is start reset blokcain from this date if not start reset from date of first generation

Did you remove calendar from reset blokcain - If you did I think this is not good idea because when I import one private key from date long time ago before wallet creation and like to reset blockchain for this date this will be impossible.

There is a new release of MultiBit at:
https://multibit.org
Version 0.5.16
Changes:
#340. Fixed: if you close a wallet then open it immediately it does not appear.
#347, #410. Updated code to bitcoinj 0.10.3 (transaction is now resent ok if not initially sent).
#407. Changed reset block chain and transactions to always run before wallet creation date.
#408. Send is now prevented until sync completes.
#409. Examined code to see if 'tx is missing' can be improved.
#415. Removed 'File | Delete Wallet' entirely for safety reasons.
#418. Now performs a ping of peers before send as a network check.

Glad you got it sorted.
Gary has written a blog item on the steps required to verify the downloads. It should go on multibit.org in a day or two.
That will make it easier for others to repeat your steps.
Gary has written a blog item on the steps required to verify the downloads. It should go on multibit.org in a day or two.
That will make it easier for others to repeat your steps.
Ok, it was user error. For the signature I pasted this:
which didn't work. But, this works for the signature and it verifies:
In the relase notes it says this:
Thx.

From your post it looks like you used the bitcoin.org donation address rather than the https://multibit.org donation address.
I have the private key for the multibit.org one and that is the address I used to sign it.

Thanks for your feedback.
Signing certainly is fiddly to verify at the moment.
I just tried Chrome Version 28.0.1500.71 on a Mac by going to the release page and simply copy-pasting and it verified ok in MultiBit 0.5.13
It really needs a proper agreed "Bitcoin Signed Message' format so that you can just verify the whole thing without the CopyPasta.

Sorry to bug you again but I can't seem to get it to verify it via bitcoin verification on 0.5.12. I downloaded the release.txt file and opened it in Notepad, copied the donation address from bitcoin.org, the bitcoin signed message, and the bitcoin signature. Then I hit "Verify Message".
I get the following error:
The verification of the message failed.
The error was "java.security.SignatureException Header byte out of range: 85".
Not sure what I am doing wrong. I was able to verify the message in the prev release so I have successfully verified before and at the moment I don't think it is user error...hmmm. Any ideas?
Thanks for your feedback.
