I usually do a MySQL find (old URL) and replace (new URL) on wp_posts, wp_postmeta, and wp_options:

UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = replace(post_content, 'http://olddomain.com/', 'http://newdomain.com/');
UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = replace(guid, 'http://olddomain.com/', 'http://newdomain.com/');
UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value = replace(meta_value, 'http://olddomain.com/', 'http://newdomain.com/');
UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace(option_value, 'http://olddomain.com/', 'http://newdomain.com/');
