Needless to say, my offline Armory newly installed on a laptop is empty now and contains no money in it, but in the online Armory installed on my desktop (working together with the bitcoin-qt) there's some money because I've just sent them into it from my another bitcoin wallet.

Now I want to transfer the money in the online Armory to the offline laptop, (may need a USB flash stick again?) but the problem is that I don't know how to do it. (May be I'm a damned fool!)

Anybody can render me help? I need actual steps need to be done one by one.

The first person having given useful tips here shall get 0.5 BTC as reward, but not until I can solve the problem of course - no cure, no pay.

No kidding.

To send your Bitcoins to your offline wallet, it should have one or more Bitcoin addresses. Go to your online wallet, and send your Bitcoins to the offline wallet address.
The coins will be sent to the offline address, even if the offline wallet is never connected to the Internet.

If you just want to access your wallet on the offline computer (not send coins to it), just put your wallet.dat onto a USB, and import it on the offline machine.

Good luck!

This has been answered in the Chinese forum: you don't need to "transfer" your bitcoin to a particular computer because your bitcoin is a record in the blockchain, not in your computer. This is a common misconception of newbies.

Blockchain is a database of all bitcoin transactions in the history. Every computer running a full node (e.g. bitcoind, bitcoin-qt) has a copy of blockchain.

If you want to check the account balance of your offline acounts, just go to blockchain.info or blockexplorer.com. Or you can use a watch-only wallet on an online computer.

I don't know if this counts a "solution" because the question itself is faulty. Anyway, you may send some tips to 1CiZPrEJdN4FJcqdLdgVLzT8tgCXxT5ion if you find my answer useful
