Can you move an EQ 7 library from one computer to another
 
I have fabric files on my on my laptop. I want to move (copy) them to a second computer. How do I do it?

get a 20 dollar flash drive (ask a child or teen, they (the drives) are everywhere.... put drive in (the kids will help you)... drag eq7 to the drive on your 'My Computer' screen.... it will appear to be another hard drive... C, D, E F OR G? then put flash drive in the laptop and reverse the process, making a laptop folder for it first somewhere on the C drive. drag and drop and wait till it says its done... i carry all my knitting patterns this way, everyone's computer has this little fitting now.. my latest flash drive cost 35 dollars and can hold my entire computer backup... LOVE IT...the kids all carry their homework on them nowadays...

I also use flash drives just to keep a copy of my EQ designs and patterns on just in case my computer crashes. This way I will not loose my design or patterns. Also, it helps to free up space on your hard drive.

I love to design at my desk on my desktop computer. But my embroidery, quilt frame, and knitting machines are all in other rooms. So I, too use the flash drive to carry the files to the other computers. The EQ library files are under Program Files, EQ, Lib... so they can be copied from there. If you just want the fabrics, choose the FAB files.
