Do you have the 12 (or 15 or 24) wallet seed words ?

If so, you can go to 'New Wallet -> Create -> Advanced -> Specify Seed' and enter the words.

I do not want to make new wallet, I want to import existing.

you need to use 'new wallet' for importing a seed in Copay.

Thank you for help but I was unable to add Installing Electrum I added without any problems

[matiu]

Sorry, I dont understand what you mean. What error do you get? Could you send a screenshot (hide the seed words)

Armory does not use BIP39, so there is no way to import into Copay unless you sweep the wallet using the paper wallet sweep function.

1. copy the PrivBase58 value (make sure you delete any empty spaces)
2. paste it into the paper wallet sweep area.
3. The bitcoins in your address will be sent to Copay.

However, this is not "importing" but rather "sweeping"

There is no way to import Armory wallet into Copay. And importing private keys individually into Electrum is a bad idea. (The creator of Electrum himself says it's a bad idea)

Now I have problems importing Electrum wallet. wallet seed: 12 words... I have one word looking like %$@#%$#@%#@$%@#$%#@$%^^$^&$* file text import... I hav csv file - could not decrypt... ps Without passphrase does not work, but I understood it is in copay password.

@cbuhka This is not the place for posting issues with Electrum.

Nothing in Electrum or Armory is compatible with Copay.

Please make a new Copay wallet and send your bitcoins to Copay.

If you keep messing around with your wallet, you might accidentally ruin it. Please stop.

Hello, good about copay wallet, please help me, my phone restored factory settings, and then use the 12-digit phrase import, was told that the need to import the password, but I have set up a 4-digit pin, so Use the four-digit pin input into the results of the emergence of this information "wrong number of recovery words: 1".

[dabura667]

You need to type in your 12 word phrase with spaces.

Is your phrase Chinese? Please add one space in between each symbol.

Thank you very much for your answer, after each Chinese secret language with spaces, The error number changed from the original 1 to 11 (error! Wrong number of recovery words: 11)
