Bitcoin isn't showing in Bitcoin Core after Reinstall

Wed Jul 13, 2016 11:45 am

Hi,

My Macbook had Bitcoin core installed. I was upgrading OS X via the Appstore but the upgrade crashed and I was no longer able to access OS X.

I took out my hard drive and saved the wallet.dat file and the blockchain and the whole directory actually.

I reinstalled OS X via USB and reinstalled Bitcoin Core. Replaced the wallet.dat file with the one I had backed up.

I let Bitcoin core download a fresh copy of the blockchain, but once it had completed, my Bitcoins still aren't showing.

I also tried a rescan via Terminal "/Applications/Bitcoin.app/Contents/MacOS/bitcoin -rescan". But no luck :(

I don't know a great deal about how this all works so any help would truly be appreciated.

Thanks!
