I just got a new Mac and want to migrate my photoblog to the new machine. My key questions:

1) I assume I can just copy my pixelpost folder from one computer to the other?

2) Is there an easy way to copy my MYSQL database to the my new Mac? I have a barebones understanding of Unix and MYSQL so am hoping there is a "migrating a MYSQL database for dummies" approach somewhere?

Many thanks!

I always do on my pc and pc notebook, but I don't know if mac is the same.

all the mysql database is in folder: mysql/data/YOUR_PIXELPOST_DATA_FOLDER

and just copy this folder to the mysql database on any other pc.

hope this help ;=)

It wont be all as you need also MySQL db access data.

1. Files just like you wrote - copy it and add correct access rights where it is needed.

2. MySQL migration - http://wiki.pixelpost.org/index.php?title=Migrating_using_PHPMyAdmin
