    Follow these steps
    1) Login to hosting cpanel.
    2) Create a new My sql database.
    3) dump your database tables in the newly created database.

    You can dump the database by using phpmyadmin provided in your hosting cpanel or can use application like bigdump. Bigdump is recommended if the size of database is large.

    If you still have trouble, just tell me the hosting you are using ( if it is cpanel based or not) and I will try to help you further.

    To answer your first question - NO, MySQL and phpMyAdmin are NOT the same !

    MySQL is a database engine.

    phpMyAdmin - is a PHP based frontend to manage MySQL databases.

    You use phpMyAdmin to make changes / work with MySQL database(s) that your site uses.
