How do I transfer my Legacy files to a new computer?

I just got a new computer, and I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out how to transfer my Legacy files. The instructions made it sound like once you put it on your flash drive, you just download the Legacy software and it uploads. That didn't really work right, so then I started transferring my 20,000 missing media files. I thought I had it, but then it's all gone again. I don't really understand. The new computer wants to save everything to "one cloud" and I just want to save it on my computer. Sorry, I'm really confused here. Any suggestions?

Questions about adding a census.

Adding a census. I started in Chapter 3 of Legacy Family Tree Version 9 Unlocked. On Page 70 Geoff added an unlinked male named John Williams. When I got to Page 92 where he showed the updated Chronology view of John Williams all I had was a Census and Occupation entry. Where did all the other info he had come from? I did not have a birth, anything about his spouse or children being born. Does each of these items have to be keyed in as an event? Does the info come from info keyed for John Williams?
