Multibit 0.5.1 password issue!!

I tried with many wallet but so far not successful.

Try with different machine, it syncing wallet and show right balance as glimpse of hope and then cannot reopen that wallet.

@mrpuiman Fear not, one of the forum members (Servpol) has come up with a method to get your coins back. Original thread: https://github.com/keepkey/multibit-hd/issues/753#issuecomment-304449559

  1. Get yourself an Electrum wallet, this is where we'll be transfering your bitcoins to.
  2. Go to https://iancoleman.github.io/bip39/ and generate the private keys Multibit once made automatically for your wallet using your seed words.

You'll need the Private keys (copy the first several hundred or so) with BIP32 Derivation Path m/0'/0 (Standard "Multibit") for the normal addresses and you'll need the Private Keys made with BIP32 Derivation Path m/0'/1 ("Custom"). These are the Change Addresses Multibit made when handling your transactions.

Your bitcoins must be "connected" so to speak, to these Private Keys, it's how the blockchain works.

  1. In Electrum log into your new wallet and go to Wallet -> Private Keys -> Sweep. Here you enter the Private keys into the textbox and hit Sweep. If there are any bitcoins "connected" to these Private Keys they will show up in the next prompt.

Next set a transaction fee (something around 300 satoshi/byte), broadcast the transaction and voila you have your bitcoins back once the transaction is confirmed!
