OK. So the Local Backup App will not allow you to restore it to another eDge.

My Library is on my full size eDge and I decided to try and move a few files over to my Pocket eDge and here is what I did.

I used a USB drive

- Open the Library

- Open All Content (I could have opened any folder but for the sake of simplicity...)

- Touch the Check Mark on top of the screen and check the files to export and press Export at bottom of the screen to export them to a USB drive

- Press Library at the top of screen and select Storage

- Press and hold USB and selected Unmount

- Plug USB into second eDge

- Open Library

- Press Library at top of the screen and select Storage

- Select USB

- Check the files you want on the eDge and press Add to Library at the bottom of the screen

- Don't forget to Unmount USB before removing

I copied 3 files from my eDge Library to my Pocket eDge Library including a PDF and hand written Journal which opened perfectly on the Pocket eDge. It looks like you may have to check the All Content Folder, press the Check mark at the top of the screen and then check all the files you want to export. If you have a lot of files you may want to export them incrementally.
