The way that I learn how to play in different keys is....I take the song in the key that I know it in and either type it out in Word or just write them down.  I then take it take it up each key.  So if you have a Cmaj7 (C-E-G-B) chord just write it out in every key.  Then just set a time table for yourself.  Like lets say you learn a song or progression in the key of C.  You could tell yourself, depending on how long it takes you to learn what you are learning, it took me 1 week to learn how to play the song in C.  I'm going to give myself a week to learn it in Db.  Then once you learn the song in Db.  Start the song in C then modulate to Db so that way you keep it in your head and don't forget how to play it in each key.  That goes for every key.  Just take it up that half step and keep doing it.  Believe me it works!!!!!  I have only been playing for a year.  And the only key that I was familiar in was Db.  Anytime I wanted to play ANY SONG!!!  I was trying to learn it in Db or changing the original notes/chords to the key of Db and transposing it on my board or my churches organ.  Like BIGTIME said, "Transpose is the devil".
