You're going from BAD (yahoo) to WORSE (godaddy).

GoDaddy is a completely inappropriate host for eCommerce...

What would be a good hosting site? I'm just trying to get to a more stable server that is easy to navigate for me...

I left yahoo because you cant use .htaccess

Don't save the back up file as a zip file. Save it as xxxxxxxx.sql

I don't know if I learnt a lazy way of copying databases, but that article saved my sanity a couple of days ago trying to copy from GoDaddy to another server. I've done countless transfers before and never had a problem, as soon as GoDaddy get involved the whole thing goes to cack

Follow the article to the letter (slowly and step by step) and you will have no problems is my guess
