Re: Making NEw Profile
The easiest way if neither of your accounts have admin privileges is to just copy your kJams folder into your Public folder on the account that you already have, then log out, and log into your new one, navigate to the old user account, and open up the Public folder, drag the kJams folder from there into the current account's Music folder.
Done.
Alternately, you can copy the kJams folder directly into the Public folder of the new account, log out, log into the new account, and drag the kJams folder from ~/Public to ~/Music.

Dave. I was assuming for some reason he was talking about moving it to a new account on the same computer.
Re: Making NEw Profile
yes, i assume the same. the transferring info is the same, but instead of "to new computer" do it "to a temp location, then to new account"
Re: Making NEw Profile

Copy the file like I described between accounts, and copy over and activate the serial as Dave laid out.
However, an easier way, which would save you a lot of effort and let you keep your personal files available, like e-mail, etc., would be to just put a password on the account and have it required to unblank the display. Then none of the above is necessary.

Re: Making NEw Profile
If you were running Mavericks, this would be trivially easy, just by clicking on Notification Center in the menu bar, and clicking "Do Not Disturb".
