just bought a new pc, i've transferred my bt account over onto the new one but it's wiped all my favourites. Is there any way of transferring these or will i have to do it manually?

If the old PC has a USB port you need one of those USB data devices.

Come in many sizes, 16Mb, 32Mb, 64Mb, 128 Mb or more so lot more room
that a diskette.

Small device, plugs into USB port, and Windows recognizes it and makes
it a disk drive letter.

Copy or move files to it, then remove from old PC and plug into new PC
USB port and copy files to new PC.

Great for moving files between computers, or moving files from home PC to work, or school or college.

I carry one with me all the time.

the 64mb one i've got doesn't carry much of my collection and i'm far too tight to spend ?300 on a 1 Gb one :-)
