I am running TAILS on my notebook, and I have Bitcoin qt installed.
I got bitcoin qt to work and it was connected and finished downloading the block chain. then today when I got home I logged into SR and withdrew some BC from my SR account to my Bitcoin qt address. Well when I logged into TAILS and opened Bitcoin qt app, it will not connect. I left it running for hours and it still says 0 active connections to the Bitcoin network.
So obviously my BCs are not showing up I am assuming because my BC app is not connected to the network.
I have tried un checking the connect through SOCKS4 proxy box and let it sit for an hour or so and it still wouldn't connect.
Can anyone help me please? Hope I didint lose my BC's. :(

You didn't lose your bitcoins. You can still recieve bitcoins even when not connected to the network.
As for getting the bitcoin client to connect, I'm not sure. Google 'bitcoin won't connect' and read through some of the stuff. I promise you're not the first to have the issue.

Well I ended up getting it to connect. But my BC still are not there.
I wrote SR and they relied saying that they are having problems with the withdraws and are trying to fix it. They didnt say if I will get my coins back or what.
I guess I have to wait a while and then write SR support again or something. Sucks.
