Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
My armory wallet was/is seed based but after 3+ days it had still not synced and finished downloading the blockchain.
I (rather naively I admit) had sent funds to it expecting it to sync much faster.
This was why I used the sweep private key option in this case.
Can you use a seed created say by armoury with another wallet like electrum?
Thanks again for you reply

I am glad that you were able to get you tx confirmed, however it is generally a good idea to use a "seeded" wallet (eg a wallet with a seed as opposed to a collection of private keys) because all you need to backup your wallet is the seed and it will remain backed up regardless of how many addresses you use

Nevermind, I managed to get around it by creating another transaction through https://coinb.in as a double spend with a transaction fee of 0.001 and it got confirmed quickly. Surprised I was actually able to work out how to do it (first time I've created a transaction, verified signed and broadcast it manually)

Hi,
Apologies if this should be obvious, but I could really do with some help.
Recently I decided I wanted to try using armory wallet instead of electrum which I had been using.
I sent a transaction to an address from the armoury wallet but naively didn't realise that I was nowhere near finishing downloading bitcoin core (3 days now, up to 94%)
To try and get round this, yesterday I used the the private key from the armory address and the sweep private key function in electrum.
This appeared to work fine, however it has been over a day now with no confs on the transaction ( I fear it was not sent with sufficient fee)
This is the transaction

Is there anything I can do now to get this transaction confrmed?
Thanks in Advance
