I have a bunch of paper wallets. If I would like to verify how much is on it, rather than import the public key, I would like to just scan it to get a balance off the block chain. Would that be possible?
There is no option to just scan + observe balance/tx-history. You can import the address which is almost as easy, and with the options listed below this might be what you want to do?
Also, would it be possible somewhere to see the individual balance of all keys stored in Mycelium? Currently we only see a total balance of all added together.
As westkybitcoins says, you can get that by disabling Aggregated Mode in settings. This way you operate on one key only when viewing the balance or tx history, or when sending coins (read-only obviously cannot send). In version 1.0 segregated mode is the default for new installs.
Another option is to place the imported bitcoin address in the archive. Records in the archive are always treated as single adressses/keys. If an archived address is selected you will only operate on that one (like with active keys in segregated mode), so if you go to Balance or Transaction History, then you will only observe the single archived address.
