For 1), it depends on how you're saving your images. Best case is to
"Export as Zip" which gives you a self-contained database file that you can
move to another computer.
For 2), you can export your database as an XML and select "Export selected
entries only" without selecting any, and I believe that should give you an
empty collection file that you could use to start a new collection with
your modified fields.
