ok. thank s. i will read up and use the electum . so by exporting and sweeping , i will get back the 1 bitcoin already sent ?

Yes, you should do. If you sweep you only have to backup a string of words that you are given when you create a standard electrum wallet. They are called its seed words and are all you need to recover from a disaster. If you import your multibit private key into electrum you need to save a backup of it in case your wallet gets corrupted.

i have exported the private keys as described. downloaded electrum and tried to sweep but tit is not working. i also saw about 5 lines of private key and i choose the most recent dated one and inputed in electron wallet under wallet - private keys - sweep ... and it says no transaction. I a, lost . How do i just get back my 1 bitcoin pls ?

Anybody can you help ?

Try importing them into electrum instead. Copy them as a list into electrum as shown in this screenshot.

This linked webpage explains how to import private keys into electrum.
