Can anyone give me a link on how to transfer my database and not lose anything and the steps to re install and get it working?

I searched and I can't find anything!
Moved to General Support.

See this Wiki article on backing up your database: [Wiki: Database_Backup] (Broken link, head over to docs.mybb.com instead)

To restore on the new host, using something like PHPMyAdmin just import it.
How do I re upload the database on my new host?

Make sure your account has permissions to import databases. You'll need to contact your host about this.
#1007 - Can't create database 'bluecafe_mybb10'; database exists 
i talk to my hoster and he told me that i can do....now i got this error
Yes.. becuase you exported you db from PhpMyAdmin with that name 'bluecafe_mybb10' so you must have the promession to import with the same name prefix (bluecafe_).. if not
so you have to export it via you ACP and transfare it to the new host. with any good dumb script
