flakmagnet Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Fred 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. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanursepaul Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Condor said he had a copy of all your waypoints-- if you want a print out---lololol Campsites too in the Potholes!!! Sorry Fred, AS you can tell i am trying to repress my agony with rough humor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swegin Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Fred you could plug a USB drive in your old computer then go open up GE, go up to file and you should see all of you KZM files, then copy those to your USB Drive and copy then to your new PC. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DolanDave Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Fred, also select all your waypoints (checkbox), then select file in upper left hand corner, then save as. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 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.
