Once issued visas cannot be transferred or altered except in cases of gross error .

Do you have a valid non-b visa or an extension of stay you applied for at immigration.

Visas cannot be transferred. You have to use both passports until the visa expires.

An extension of stay can be transferred at immigration..

Yes, ubonjoe. I have extension of stay and re-entry permit on my passport. its valid until september.

can i transfer it to the new passport which have a different birth date? how would i go getting the new passport with the modified date of birth and extend the visa and work permit with the minimum hassle

Changing a birth date on a passport would be very unusual.

I would suggest obtaining a letter from the passport issuing authority explaining the reasons for the change which can then be translated into Thai for the benefit of the Thai immigration authorities.
