How can I transfer bitcoins from a MultiBit wallet to another computer?

1

I had bitcoins on MultiBit 0.12 on my old computer. I have moved the old computer's hard drive to an external hard drive. How can I transfer my bitcoins from the old hard drive to my new computer's MultiBit 0.15?

It's hard to follow your question. What is "hard drive info"? What, exactly, is on the external hard drive? Do you have any .wallet files?David Schwartz 2016-02-19T08:29:25.377

MultiBit developer here. The version numbers you're supplying are not related to MultiBit. We currently have version 0.2.0 for MultiBit HD and 0.5.19 for MultiBit Classic. There has never been a 0.12 or 0.15 version. Are you sure that you have the correct wallet application?

That aside, if you need to empty your wallet in MultiBit Classic, you simply need to use File | Open to locate your wallet file, and then use the Send tab to transfer those bitcoins to another address. That address is provided by whichever wallet you'd like to use instead.

Do not delete your old private keys in case someone sends you bitcoin to an old address
