moved to new server, images still linking to old server (5 posts)

    I moved wordpress to a new server using the directions for "moving to a new server if you still want your old blog to work", from the wordpress codex here on the site. Everything is working fine except the uploaded images are still pointing to the old server. I double checked the settings in wordpress, but I can't seem to find anything that references the old server in wordpress. How can I get these images to point to the new server? (the files are in the upload folder on the new server, its just that the blog is still linking to the old server for some reason)

    thank you !!!

    The following steps worked with me when I moved my site to another server:

    Empty your cache in your web browser, close the browser, start up your computer, visit again your site.

    I went into the edit page and in the html there it still had the old link.

    Also, in the media section of wordpress, all of the stored images, are still linked to the old server.
