trying to move my keychain passwords

I have copied the file "login.keychain" on my old computer, but when I attempt to place it in Home/Library/Keychains on my new computer, I get an error message saying something like "can't be done as the keychain is in use." I'm sure this is probably a pretty simple operation, although entirely too complicated for me. Any help would be most appreciated.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.1)

Try moving the old one onto the desktop, then moving the new one in, then restarting. Then you can delete the old one on the desktop.
