  1. If you have any music files that reside outside your ~/Music/kJams folder, you will have to move them to the corresponding place, they must have the same path name in their new location, as in the original location (including hard drive name / drive letter)
  2. If you have any music files on an external disk, you'll have to mount that disc at your destination (you can serve it remotely, see Serving Music Remotely) (Win: must have same drive letter)
  3. If your user name on the new computer is different from the old one, you'll have to create a symbolic link on the new computer, with the old name, pointing to the new name. See The Easy Hard Way to make symlinks, or ask for help.
