Hello. Today, I imported my bookmarks of internet explore to FF

and found FF all my favorites not copy... so I deleted them... thinking that I could take the same steps again (copy the bookmarks again). It is not possible! If I click on the file button, the text/line "import" (so to speak) is light gray, and I can't click it... so I'm not able to copy more on FF for awhile 2cnd. Y at - it someone who has an idea how to solve this problem? Thanx, Deborah

  • How you import your favorites/bookmarks to Internet Explorer in Firefox?

  • Backup Windows corrupted bookmarks to Internet Explorer!

    Can someone help with this problem? I am running Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 8 on my HP Pavilion.   I recently performed a backup on an external hard drive (WD Passport) by using Windows backup - it seemed to go OK, but when I open the Internet Explorer browser, 702 favorites were gone!  Worse yet, I can't even create a new favorite with 'Add to Favorites' more.

    I know that the files are still there as I see the computer C:\Users\Helen\Favorites in but for some reason any IE8 has ceased to recognize their (and stopped allowing me to create new ones).

    Ironically, if I open Firefox, it picked the IE8 Favorites!

    It's really annoying - someone has any suggestions how to fix it?  I even tried looking in the registry (as advised on a forum of Microsoft), but the path of the shell for Favorites folders seems to be OK (C:\Users\Helen\Favorites)

    I googled all kinds of sites but impossible to find a solution - HELP!

    Hello PurpleHelen, you can try using a restore point Windows at a time before problems appear.

    If this does not resolve the problem, you could try to export your FireFox bookmarks to a location on your hard drive and then open Internet Explorer and try to import these exports FireFox favorites.

    Just something to try.

  • I can't import bookmarks to Seamonkey being the only option shown on the screen "Import" in Firefox for Internet Explorer.

    On my XP, the option screen 'import' shows IE and Netscape/Mozilla as choice; on this Windows 7 computer, the only option is IE. Back on does not help, and the Firefox installation went well.

  • Win XP, FF 9.0.1 - window open library, click on "Import...". "Tab, which opens the Import Wizard. Select "Internet Explorer", then button 'Next', then nothing happens. Next the Wizard ("import items") opens, nothing.

    The only thing that had happened was that during the initial operation of the FF, when it connects on the Mozilla site, I lost my Internet (modem) connection and not a not complete this initial contact. Bookmarks, etc seem to work, I can not just simply import from the old browser.

    Oh, I forgot the function 'Export' of IE. Did it and it works like a charm. Now the real work begins - I became a bookmark Packrat and I need to clean...

    Thank you

    You can usually find the Favorites IE imported into a folder ("Internet Explorer") at the bottom of the file Menu bookmarks or Favorites bar folder (bookmarks > show all bookmarks).

    If there are problems with importing IE bookmarks in Firefox, then export favorites in Internet Explorer to a HTML file and import this file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.

    If you don't have the menu bar in Internet Explorer, and then right-click on the toolbar above to activate the menu bar.

    • Export Favorites in Internet Explorer to a file (bookmarks.html) HTML:

    You can export your IE Favorites and then import this file into Firefox. Works better than the 'import', IMO.

    In Internet Explorer:

    File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file

    then in Firefox:

    Bookmarks > show all bookmarks-> import and backup - import HTML... = HTML file

    If I transfer my Win7 for Google Chrome Favorites, a copy of my favorites remains with Win7?

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft community!

     

    You want to know that if you pass the Favorites to Internet Explorer in Chrome, make copies of files remain in Internet Explorer.

    If you import bookmarks to Internet Explorer to Chrome, you simply transfer a copy of the files and they will continue to be available with Internet Explorer.
