Litecoin QT 08.7.5 on Mac OSX 10.6.8 Coins Stuck

Technical Support
1

Hi There,

After a few years absence I booted up my old mac running QT 8.7.5. It came up “Alert Key Compromised, Upgrade required”.

Due to the old MAC OS the upgrade to Core doesn’t work so I tried sending coins from the wallet. Amounts under 1 went OK so I went to send more, they now appear to be stuck and in the old QT you cannot abort the transaction

I have tried to restore the back up on a new Mac but for some reason the wallet fails to recognise the .day file

I am stuck at the moment, should I either:

  1. wait to see if they go through
  2. try a restore on a PC - will the .day file work

If I do the restore, will it also lose the transactions that are stuck?

All advice appreciated.

Phil

You could export private keys to an SPV wallet like electrum-ltc.org and move them from there.

jcoinner post on this thread could be helpful on this case:

If you need private assistance, I will be glad to do it for you. It will cost you 5% of stuck amount.
If you decide to go this way, I’ll ask you to privately send me .dat file, as well as a new address to send stuck funds to.
