(This was not mentioned in the description above, but is an important step for it to work. :)) And without the captcha I lost all my entered data, I'm so happy I wrote this twice.

None of the migration instructions I have seen so far even mention this. This is a very necessary step, and without it Magento Connect Manager shows up no packages available. -- Jason Lazzo – thanks for that hint.

I did the following to solve this problem: 1) Take a backup of the file /downloader/pearlib/pear.ini 2) Delete (or rename) pear.ini 3) Go to Magento connect manager - the settings are resteted back to "stable", change it to beta and press save. A new pear.ini file should now be created with the correct path. 4) Done Good luck!

I had disabled the cache in the back-end system/cache-management before renaming, so I could go directly from step 1 to step 4. This saves a lot of work! Thanks man, worked without a problem.
