I'm transcribing the passwords from the same piece of paper that I initially read from when entering them into the Geth client, so it's very unlikely that this was an input error.\r\n\r\nI've searched the internet and found these four links where people report having similar problems:\r\n\r\nMist Wallet password problem - https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/4na19x/mist_wallet_password_problem/\r\n\r\n\r\nMist Wallet says wrong password, be careful - https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/4jzxft/mist_wallet_says_wrong_password_be_careful/\r\n\r\n\r\nMist password wrong error 0.7.6 - https://github.com/ethereum/mist/issues/923\r\n\r\nPassword Assistance Needed :) - https://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/8422/password-assistance-needed\r\n\r\nI tried importing one of the accounts into the Jaxx Kryptokit wallet:\r\n\r\nhttps://ethereumwallet.com/beta/index.html#dYb9\r\n\r\nand put in the password, and it did not work, so I do believe that the password is wrong.\r\n\r\nI found this bug report relating to both Mist and Geth: \r\n\r\nhttps://github.com/ethereum/mist/issues/182#issuecomment-198908871\r\n\r\nI'm wondering if this could be related.\r\n\r\nI created two new accounts today with two new passwords, and was able to unlock both with their passwords, but I did that with Geth 1.5.0-unstable and the version I was running in late May was different. \r\n\r\nIf I lose this ETH this would set me back a few years, so I'm very anxious right now.
