If you go on your old computer and go where you installed freestyler, normally C drive. Then you copy what files you wish to use on your computer.

I would copy:
Backups (if you have any backups)
Chases
Cues
(Easy view data) if you use 3D view, there will be stage files here
Fixtures (Any fixtures you created are here, open them with fixture creator, then export them so there pff files and copy to new computer then click to install them again)
Locations (If you have any locations saved on Freestyler)

That should be about it really, any more questions then just ask.

FS also has a backup function that allows you to export all your shows files much like an iTunes library. You can then transfer the file to your new machine and import it back into FS to restore all your shows/locations.

The backup function does not backup chases and cues. without moving the folders your cuelists will come up empty

That's strange. I used the backup function to transfer everything from one PC to another and it copied all my files across. Why would a backup function not backup your sequences/chases?
