      You need to go here:

      ~/Library/Application Support/Feathercoin/
      

      If you’re on MacOS you can either try this Bootstrap.dat file or you can wait a day or two - we are going to release 0.9.6.2 which has a much faster sync than 0.9.6.1

        I downloaded the updated wallet but it’s still extremely slow to sync. Did I do something wrong when updating? Uninstalled 0.9.6.1 64bit before installing 0.9.6.2 32bit and kept the appdata folder as it was

          no, you did everything right.

          with version 0.9.6.2 the sync still needs several hours to complete

            Follow this procedure to open your Library folder:
            Click your “username”
            Go to Finder and click “Go”
            Press the “Alt” button and you’ll see “Library” appearing
            Click on “Library” while holding “Alt” button
            “Library” folder opens and go to “Application Support” folder
            Look for your “Feathercoin” folder

              This is for MacOS only. And not windows 32bit

                  Thank you to everyone in this thread - I am working through the same issues and using this thread to move the process of sync my wallet. Sync Feather = right of passage ;)

                    Hi,

                    the link to https://ufile.io/8ysgb is not longer valid (unless you subscribe to their premium contract). Can someone republish it please?

                    I’m on 0.9.6.2, but sync is still only half way through (block 1023813) after 24hrs…

                      You are past any problems in the sync. Even if you download blockdat, it still has to be checked by the system, which is the thing that takes time.

                        It’s been running for a week now… block 1770805… this is ridiculuous…

                        I have dozens of wallets in other altcoins… none of them took longer than a day.

                          Are you ate your PC now, is the wallet open? can you click on, settings, debug window, console tab,

                          then type

                          getinfo
                          

                          then :

                          getpeerinfo 
                          

                          May help diagnose why you are slow.

                            I posted earlier in this thread. one of the main reasons why the sync is so slow is that Feathercoin was attacked a lot in the early days in 2013/2014 that caused a few orphan chains on the network that have to be processed.

                                  Your wallet currently -or at the time you got the list of peers- syncronizes with this node : “46.127.12.33:9336”

                                  Try to close the wallet and start again.

                                  This has been reported to get hanging synchronizations to move again.

                                  After starting the wallet again, you can check that the wallet uses a different node to download data.

                                  This is reflected in the ‘syncnode’ flag of the peers.

                                    Thanks for the info , i closed and opened it many times and it still hangs there , on information tab i number of connections see 10 ( in = 0 / out = 10 )

                                    When i restart , i always get a different address showing True but it stays hanging .

                                    What do i do now ?

                                      Hi @engetsu,

                                      I had the same issue on Ubuntu and Win. I went here http://cryptochainer.com/dir/?page_id=881
                                      and downloaded the .zip
                                      Close your wallet, copy the files into the Data Folder (maybe backup the old ones, just in case…). Start your Wallet and you should only be come days behind. Wallet quickly syncs and you are good…

                                      Hope this helps!!

                                      There are days when you lose and there are days when others win

                                        thanks for the link but the idea of me getting the core is to havea safe wallet . Downloading something from a site for my wallet does not really seem secure .

                                        Also why can’t this core wallet work like it’s suppose to ? why so many bugs and so much time to sync.

                                        i deleted everything and re installed the program and it’s been 3 days now on continuous connection on a 30 MB internet speed .

                                        I’m at 1 year and 17 weeks behind , is it suppose to take this much time ?

                                          @engetsu I thought the thing that took time is not the download, but the processing.

                                            My tests showed the sync with 0.9.6.2 took consistently ~25 hours, using the blockdata.dat - a fast PC with > 16 GB RAM.

                                            Can I ask what PC you are using? memory / clock speed?
