You have a json error
Just do rescan later
Topic: still trying to import to Bitcoin-Qt (Read 1228 times)
But after typing the importprivkey command, pasting the key and hitting Enter I don't get an error - nothing happens except after about 10 minutes an empty line shows up with a right-facing arrow. No balance shows up in the Overview tab, nor are there any transactions shown. However, there's a new address showing up in the address book, with the same timestamp as contained in my private key.
Am I close to getting it right?

Hello,
I continue to struggle to import one of my two Multibit wallets into Bitcoin-Qt. The wallet I'm trying to import has two addresses. I have exported the private key from Multibit and am using Notepad to view.
Using this code in the Qt console:
I've pasted one of my two keys, leaving out the < and >. I don't have/don't know what the label is so left that out. When I include the rescan code, I get this error:
so I skipped that, too.
