Moving GAIM profile between computers

Following the move of my Thunderbird profile, I have to move my GAIM profile. Gaim is an integrated messaging client that I use. I need to be online most of the time to stay in touch with clients, partners and friends.

It turned out to be very straight forward as well.

On the desktop I just had to

  1. Install a copy of GAIM
  2. copy the former .gaim folder which located on the old drive
    Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\.gaim
    to
    c:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data
  3. Start GAIM. All the accounts and contacts will just appear. Perfect!
