[Koha] export/import issues

[SCOTT OWEN]

Hi all,
 
First, please forgive my ignorance. I'm a tech, not a librarian, so if my terminology is off or if I seem a bit dense, please be patient and use small words.......
 
I'm trying to move data from Koha 2.29 to Koha 3.00.06.
I am exporting MARC records from Koha 2.29 (Windows) and then trying to import the *.mrc files into Koha 3.00.06.
Some fields seem to transfer fine, while others (I believe it's the "holdings data"?) seem to be a bit off.
 
Example:
Here is a record for an item exported from Koha 2.29 and then opened with MarcEdit5.1 (after it was made into a *.mrk file)

If this is working as I think, the 952 field represents the 6 copies of the book that we have in our collection at the PINE location. 
 
 
Here is what shows up in koha 3.00.06 after I import the *.mrc file.

So.....looking at this it seems that I need to swap the "date last seen" and "Cost, replacement price" fields. I also seem to have missing "Koha, Item type" and the "Date acquired" is showing the location...not the date. Lastly, the "Uniform Resource Identifier" link just takes me to a 404 error page...  I have no clue what this is supposed to do?  
 
Am I exporting/importing this data correctly?
Is there an easy way to repair/fix the 952 field, or am I going to have to swap/replace cut/paste as per http://koha.org/documentation/manual/3.0/cataloging/item-fields-data-migration??
 
Thanks for any advise.
