Import of BTC BIP38 Paper Walet into Electrum 3.3.4 not working

Making an attempt to finalize importing BTC from a BIP38 Paper Pockets into Electrum pockets

About an hour in the past I opened Electum 3.3.4, created a brand new pockets, set a password, saved a replica of the brand new pockets to a USB stick.

Then I clicked Electum’s menu choices for WALLET, PRIVATE KEYS, IMPORT, and pasted the decrypted non-public key for the BIP38 Paper Pockets into the field that opened, and clicked NEXT.

Nothing has occurred: The blockexplorer reveals the BTC steadiness continues to be within the Paper Pockets and never within the Electrum pockets. I closed and restarted Electrum, however identical.

After I decrypted the BIP38 Paper Pockets to acquire its non-public key I used bitaddress.org offline, which supplied me with a desk containing a variety of choices re the decryted non-public key.

The precise key I selected, copied and pasted into Electrum was the one underneath the heading “WIF compressed format 52 character base 58 beginning with ‘Ok’ or ‘L’ “

Would that be what must be corrected?

A second factor is that I see, once I click on the Electrum server large inexperienced button (no concept what its known as ha) that the Overview reveals “Standing” as linked to 10 nodes. Server is noveltybobble.coinjoined.com and Blockchain is 565750. After I initially checked this on importing the BIP38 Paper Pockets it was set to automated not a selected server

I’ve learn that Electrum servers might be a problem to processing transactions, and am considering possibly that might be an issue right here?

Any options or assist can be appreciated
