Moving Install Manager Content?

I am getting a new computer soon, and I was wondering if it is possible to just copy everything in

/Users/Shared/My Daz 3D Library
/Users/DAZ 3D/InstallManager

onto the new computer and have the CMS pick it up. I don't want to have to re-download everything but I also want it to recognize what is already installed. Is there any other folder location that I would need to copy over?

    These should help:

    * Migrating DS4 CMS Database between computers

    * Migrating DS4 CMS Database between computers using DS built-in tools

    Thank you for those. Do you know what the process is on a Mac, though? I can follow everything except for this part:

    pause
    net stop "DAZ Content Management Service"
    xcopy /y "E:\DAZ\Content Management Service\databases\*.*" "E:\DAZ\Content Management Service\databases\backup\"
    net start "DAZ Content Management Service"
    pause

    Is it in ~/Library/ ?

    You can use the stop/start for the CMS that should be in the DAZ Application folder. Just copy the original database folder to the new location using Finder..

    If you can't find the stop/start for the CMS in the DAZ application folder than Activity Monitor should be able to start and stop the DAZContentManagerService.
