How to Import private key "wallet.aes.json" file from blockchain.info?
There is only "wallet.aes.json" file I have.
Don't wanna cry.

What exactly is your problem? Blockchain.info doesn't hold your wallet or anything, it only read the blockchain. You'll have to access your wallet through the wallet program you have created it with.

Yeah, I also just have a wallet.aes.json file backuped in my email.
The email sent by blockchain says:

Wallet Backup: Attached to this email is an AES encrypted wallet backup which contains everything you need to restore your bitcoin balance. You can use it to restore the wallet at anytime at My Wallet or using the 3rd party MultiBit Desktop client.

I've forgot my password. How can I recover my wallet.

@xialvjun @ehadz @redredmaster If you somehow manage to recover either your password or private key in some other way you can recover your wallet using any other wallet program to swipe all coins to a different wallet.

Also this topic might be about the problem you are facing https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/30104/how-can-i-convert-a-wallet-aes-json-file-from-blockchain-info-to-a-wallet-dat-fi

*bonus a quick google search returned this tool which might be of use https://github.com/prof7bit/wallet-key-tool

you can use blockchain.info recovery to decrypt the wallet.aes.json file. if you forget password. need bruteforce the password first.
