Somebody please help me out, here... HIVE question.

in #error5 years ago

I can't seem to get my Private Active Key to reveal even after I click the Reveal button and put in the correct password. I've tried my keystore password and private keys. When it's not accepted it tells you why (and which key you're supposed to use) but when it IS accepted it goes through to the next screen WHICH IS THE SAME SCREEN I WAS JUST ON without revealing the Private Active Key.

It's driving me up a wall. Any help is appreciated. Please, and thank you.

Hi!

My impression is that you have logged yourself in on the wallet with the posting key. For that reason, you cannot see the active key (as the latter has a higher level).

Thank you. That advice might be actually be helpful.

You are welcome!

if you login to hive wallet with your posting key you won't be able to reveal active key.

if you don't have hive specific keys saved somewhere or written down, log in to steemitwallet.com if you haven't changed your hive keys since steemit and just take the active key from there, if you can view it there, if you have saved the owner, active key from steemit. obviously if you just have steemit posting key it'll be the same story.

Thank you very much! You're right! I can see it there!

use master key

fancy seeing you here.
