I did find out what happened. My system booted into another desktop account so once I figured that out I removed that program. The original was still there so I backed up the wallet. What I need to know now is how to transfer from one bitcoing wallet address within the same wallet

I downloaded the MultiBit client that is supposed to be compatible with 32 bit &amp; 64 bit but when I run the program it give an error message that says that the program is incompatible with the current version of Windows that it is being run under. How do I get the MultiBit client to run in 64 bit?</p>

Hi Thom, and welcome to the Bitcoin StackExchange community! You'd get a much better answer if you took a screenshot of the error message, and posted it here. Remember, you can edit your question after posting it.
