I backed up my files and database. uploaded files to new server, created and restored the database to the new server, edited the settings.php file. I navigate to the site, it pops up perfectly. I try to navigate to any other page and I get a 404 page not found error. What am I missing?

Do you have mod_rewrite for Apache enabled/installed? If not, verify this is the case.
Also, ensure that your .htaccess file in your Drupal root is unchanged from the old server.
If you're on a Debian-based distribution, go to /etc/apache2/mods-available to verify that rewrite.load is present. Then go to /etc/apache2/mods-enabled to verify that rewrite.load is symlinked in that directory.
If you're on a RedHat distro like CentOS, then go to /etc/httpd/modules and look for mod_rewrite.so. Then, open up /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and verify that this line is in there LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so.

Not sure, I'm using 1and1.com web server. Inside the .htaccess file I appears that mod_rewrite is turned on. – J-Fiz Feb 9 '12 at 21:48

1Something else to check on, it sounds like you don't have access to the Apache VirtualHost configuration... it is imperative that the
AllowOverrideobjective is set so that it picks up your .htaccess settings. – Lester Peabody Feb 9 '12 at 21:57

Do you have the rewrite mode enable? If not, try enabling it.

Create a php.ini file and disable "register_globals" on the 1and1 server.

Have you copied the .htaccess file? Sometimes, it is not copied, because files stating with an . are regarded invisible and non archive
Have you got
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php
in your .htaccess?
