another ---- question from me...

Is there a "easy" way to move my google earth account from my old computer to my new computer.  I would like to keep the waypoints I have...just because I like them...

remember, small words and simple directions for fred...

thanks

on my Mac, when I migrated all my hard drive info. onto my new computer,

Google earth and all my info, came over intact. Do you have a back up drive of your main

hard drive? If so, you should be able to do the same… good luck.

Fred, also select all your waypoints (checkbox), then select file in upper left hand corner, then save as.

Google Maps lets you login on multiple devices.  I put in points and pins on my phone and I could see them in real time here on my laptop computer because I was signed in to the same account.  (Your points would be 'saved in the cloud' so to speak.)

I'm not 100% certain that GE works the same way because I have had one  hard drive crash and when I got on GE with the other computer many of my finds were not saved.  I'll have to look at a backup and do as Swegin and Steve have suggested.

Many people have done it Fred and as long as your old computer is working you won't lose the data.
