<p>There's nothing stopping you from using Blockchain's <em>export unencrypted keys</em> in either <em>base58</em> or <em>Bitcoin-QT</em> formats and pasting the private keys for import (PRIVKEY will either be 5H,5J,5K or K,L)</p>

<li>I'm trying to import a private key that I exported from Blockchain, I import it, the right public key is created, but no transactions show up or balance?<br>
I've imported a bunch of private keys. and this is the first time I've run into something like this.<br>
Could it be the date? The key is exported in the right Bitcoin-QT format. What could it be?</li>
<li>How can I enable 0 confirmation spending? I want to use it between addresses that I use so I don't need to worry about double spending; I really don't want to alter the source code and all that.</li>

What version of Multibit and on what platform ie OS?

There were issues with importing Blockchain wallets (a Reddit or BCT thread detailed lost BTC from a supposed lost imported Blockchain private key) so I believe recent Multibit versions have had Blockchain wallet imports disabled.

A couple threads to check:

There's nothing stopping you from using Blockchain's *export unencrypted keys* in either *base58* or *Bitcoin-QT* formats and pasting the private keys for import (PRIVKEY will either be 5H,5J,5K or K,L)
