I currently have my wallet with blockchain.info.
Is there any way that I can import this address into the bitcoin-qt client?

Login to your blockchain.info wallet
Select Import/Export
Select Export Unencrypted
Select Bitcoin-Qt Format from the drop-down list
You'll then see information that look like this:
"priv":"5KJvsngHeMpm884wtkJNzQGaCErckhHJBGFsvd3VyK5qMZXj3hS"
Ignore the other information, what you're looking for are your private keys that look like this: 5KJvsngHeMpm884wtkJNzQGaCErckhHJBGFsvd3VyK5qMZXj3hS
Then just follow Rick's instructions to import each of your private keys into the Bitcoin-Qt client:
- Run Bitcoin-QT
- Select Help (to the right of Settings)
- Select Debug Window
- Select Console
- Next to the > input box type
importprivkey <bitcoinprivkey>Example:
importprivkey 5KJvsngHeMpm884wtkJNzQGaCErckhHJBGFsvd3VyK5qMZXj3hS
1Its best you don't reuse addresses anyway so there is no harm in just moving your coins across to a new wallet. – MaxSan – 2013-11-26T11:22:29.207
Plus, you can be sure that actually nobody grabbed the private key of that address from your browser or from Blockchain.info. – Murch – 2013-11-27T00:52:40.280
