If you're creating a new keypair each time, it sounds like you're missing something about how secure PMs work.

On the first computer, set up secure PMs and back up your private key when prompted.

On the second computer, log in, select a secure PM, enter your passphrase and click 'Decrypt'. When prompted, point it to the backup you made of your private key.

If you recreate your keypair all your secure PMs to that point will be unrecoverable, no matter which computer you use.

You should try clearing your cookies on the second computer, or at least deleting the one called '145935privatekey', and then when you try to decrypt a secure PM it will prompt you for the private key file.

Just remember that if you recreated your keypair (by clicking the 'Forgot your passphrase' link) it made all secure PMs you received up until that point unreadable. You must use the newest private key file on the second computer, and you will only be able to decrypt secure PMs you received after that key was created.
