What do I need to do do upgrade the wallets? I am apparently trying to load an old wallet and it needs some type of upgrade?

If it's the old standard, I think you will have to just send your monero to a new wallet. You should be able to run simplewallet.exe with the flag --wallet-file arg to recover it for starters. Then just make a new wallet and send to a modern mnemonic seed style wallet.
Here is a post about it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/3jteca/how_to_import_old_monero_wallet/ and the answer worked. But probably if he had just run it with the flag I talked about above he wouldn't have gotten that error.
At this point all I am desperatly trying to do is even get bitmonerod to work. I tried starting over with the new binaries but it reads "Uncaught exception! attempt to get timestamp from height 1105296 failed -- timestamp not in the db
What does db stand for? And hat someone tells me to run with the --wallet-file command, what do they mean? when I run that command it returns unknown command...
Which OS are you on? I assume Windows. If so, your blockchain likely got corrupted. Therefore, you have to delete your blockchain from C:\ProgramData\bitmonero\lmdb (note it is a hidden folder, so enter this into the explorer instead of navigating to it) and sync from scratch again. Db means database by the way.
To upgrade the old wallet:
Quote
Do you remember which OS the wallet was created on? If so, download the binaries from the getmonero website for that same OS. Extract the binaries, go to the extracted folder and open bitmonerod (the daemon). Bitmonerod first has to sync fully before you are able to restore your wallet. If bitmonerod is fully synced (you can check this by typing "status" into bitmonerod, it should be equal to the blockheight displayed on moneroblocks.info), place the wallet.bin, wallet.bin.address.txt, and wallet.bin.keys in the same folder as bitmonerod and simplewallet are located. Subsequently, open simplewallet and type in the wallet's name. Simplewallet will automatically update you to a new version and you should be able to see your coins (and transact with them).

Hey guys, I withdrawed a test amount XMR from Polo to my Simplewallet (OSX) without Payment ID. The XMR never arrived in my wallet. Any ideas if this is "fixable"?
Go to http://moneroblocks.info/ and paste your Txid there
If a transaction appears, check (on poloniex) that withrawal address was correct
To add, is your bitmonerod (the daemon) fully synced? And if so, is your wallet fully synced? Type "refresh" into simplewallet to do so.
tx id is http://moneroblocks.info/search/60a938f952430b447ed154d39e1a0fd7bf211e4d9bb11a466a7b5e0b01b92199
Oh yes, I think my wallet wasn't synced! Didn't realize I should launch bitmonerod also. Guess it will ok then (now serveral hundred days behind)
Thanks for the feedback guys!

All i know is all the XMR i mined is totally worthless to me because of the micro payments made to my by the mining pool!
This pool pays out in 1xmr chunks so less fees
http://mine.moneroworld.com/#
or maybe your machine is to slow to bother
edit: bet me by a second
Main problem for me was that i mined back in the early days with a CPU.
The pools back then were paying in small amounts.
I never knew this was an issue until later.
Dont know why the fees are so high to consolidate the wallet.
Is there any way to reduce this?
Seems a big flaw, as this defeats the use of micro payments, especially if the value increases.
It was a flaw with the pool back then not monero its self. Monero isn't designed to do micro payments efficiently. No successful high market cap (relatively) blockchain is going to be good for micro payments though. Scientists and engineers need to solve that problem with something like a lightning network or some sort of segregated witness side chain that regularly prunes older blocks.

Check the sweep_dust command maybe? I had this problem too, but that fixed it.

Transaction fee of 1.26 XMR for a 175 coins? That's a tad high at today's price in USD.
Well, to be fair, I don't think anyone anticipated this fast of a rise, but I do agree - Next release is for next week, let's hope it's adjusted.
I suddenly wonder. Is it possible to manually set the fee, instead of using the automatically calculated fee? I suppose it is the miners deciding whether or not it is in their interest to include the transaction?
