Answer 1

The answer is still "No".  You need a new visa in your other passport.  Procedurally, you would need to re-apply for what is essentially a replacement visa.

Answer 2

An alien can present two passports, one, which fulfills the visa requirement and the other the passport requirement. The alien's nationality, as indicated in the new passport, must be the same as that shown in the passport bearing the visa stamp.

So, if your expired passport shows your nationality to be the same as what is in your valid passport, you're all right, but if one passport says you're Greek, for example, and the other passport says you're Dutch, you cannot use both passports at the same time.

This is an example how the U.S. does not support dual nationality. You could ask the visa office to cancel the valid visa in the expired passport and place a valid visa in the valid passport.

You cannot have two valid visas in the same classification concurrently.
