Changing my current template

Hi, I currently use a template and have my store set up, https://www.customprintablecards.com. But, I saw another template I would like to change it to. How do I change to a new template and keep my current content and product? Is it possible? Reason why I ask is I installed the new template, changed over to it, but none of my current products show up when I do that so I switched back to the old template. I know I will need to make chages to new template docs, but I thought I would at least see my products.

When you selected this new template did you also select
admin > tools > layout boxes > reset

how do you install a new template?
There is normally a "readme" file or "install" file that outlines installation
Most assume that you know how to use FTP
