Trying to use legacy Bitcoin-QT v0.6.2.2 stuck - HELP!

Trying to use legacy Bitcoin-QT v0.6.2.2 stuck - HELP!

I bought a couple of bitcoin in 2012 where they languished on my successive Mac Book Pros in a Bitcoin-QT v0.6.2.2 wallet. I now realise they are worth - ahem - something! The wallet still fires up even though it is still calls itself a beta wallet and so I thought I would first try to send my lovely bitcoin to a new and glossy Exodus wallet.

Now being completely new to this I got my receive address for my Exodus Wallet and tried sending 0.1 BTC to my Exodus wallet. Eventually (maybe 5 hours later) it showed it had arrived but with zero confirmations. This first transaction still shows with 0.1 BTC "Pending" in the Exodus Wallet (sent Friday Dec 1st 10.04.10 PM).

I realised I had not included any fee on this first send but I didn't see anything I could do about that.

Anyway I then sent the balance of BTC in my Bitcoin-QT wallet, but this time included a 0.0004 BTC fee to the same address. But, 34 hours later it does not even show it having arrived at the Exodus wallet.

Now I really do not know what to do. I assume if I leave my Bitcoin-QT wallet up and running it will keep broadcasting the transactions and so they may never disappear. So I have quit the wallet. But suppose I leave it for a few days. If I fire up the wallet then I assume it will broadcast again and I will be back in the same situation? I could start it up offline and restore from a backup I did just prior to sending the first transaction - I guess that would cut out the re-broadcasts. Would that be the thing to do?

Sorry - I feel like a complete dufus but some seriously expert advice on how best to get back to the status quo anti with my lovely bitcoins in either the old wallet or better still my new flashy Exodus one, would be hugely appreciated!!!!
