• How to backup my bookmarks on an external hard drive?

  Original title: hot to save my favorites on an external hard drive

  probably one simple question to others, but I would like to save my favorites on my external hard drive. How do I do that?

  Assuming you are asking about Favorites in Internet Explorer, the following comes from Internet Explorer Help (and then search for "Export Favorites").  It describes how to export your Favorites to a file:

  Import or export favorites in Internet Explorer

  Favorites, also known as bookmarks, are a convenient way to organize and find webpages that you visit frequently. If you use Internet Explorer on several computers, you can save your Favorites from one computer, and then import that list to another computer.

  To export favorites
  Follow these steps on the computer on which you export your Favorites from.

  Click to open Internet Explorer.

  Click the Favorites button, click the arrow next to the add to Favorites button, and then click Import and export.

  In the import/export settings dialog box, click Export to a file, and then click Next.

  Select the Favorites check box, and then click Next.

  Select the folder that you want to export your Favorites to and then click Next.

  By default, Internet Explorer creates a file called bookmark.htm in your Documents folder. If you want to use a name other than bookmark.htm file or store the Favorites exported in a different folder, specify the new file and the name of the folder.

  Click Export. If you already have a file of the same name, Internet Explorer will ask you to replace it. If you want to replace the file, or click on no and enter a new file name, click Yes.

  Click Finish.

  Note
  If the folder you select cannot be written, as the Documents of another user folder, the export will fail. Repeat the export with another folder.

  To import favorites
  Follow these steps on the computer that you want to import your Favorites to.

  Click to open Internet Explorer.

  Click the Favorites button, click the arrow next to the add to Favorites button, and then click Import and export.

  In the import/export settings dialog box, click Import from a file, and then click Next.

  Select the Favorites check box, and then click Next.

  By default, Internet Explorer is important from a file called bookmark.htm in your Documents folder, but you can tell it to import favorites that are saved under another name. Click Browse and select a file, type a location and a file name to import, or click next to accept the default value.

  Select the folder where you want to place the imported Favorites, and then click Import.

  Click Finish.

  Notes
  To share or transfer Favorites from one computer to another, export or copy the Bookmark.htm file to a disk or flash drive. You can then import your favorites of the disc or the flash drive on the new computer.

  Favorites from previous versions of Internet Explorer can be imported in this version.

  To print your list of favorites, open Bookmark.htm in Internet Explorer and then click Print.

• How can I move bookmarks to new Mac when the synchronization page says "this module has been removed by its author"?

  I tried to move the favorites by creating a synchronization profile, but he gave me the message "add-on has been removed by its author" and I don't know what that means. Within the forum, I found a message stating I can do by the first update for Firefox 9 or something, but my current OS is stuck with the version of Firefox 3.6.26 and will not be upgraded further until I update my OS on my newer computer. So, how can I save and move bookmarks to my new computer, a Mac with 10.6?

  You can restore a JSON backup in bookmarks (library) Manager.

• How can I remove bookmarks on my toolbar when the "bluestar" is not turned on? (Ditto for the button 'delete' in the menu library).

  Dear Sir/Madam
  I had a quick glance at your solutions page and have tried to use all of the tips suggested however, when I try to remove three items on toolbar, none of them illuminate the "BlueStar" located next to their address. (I got rid of other elements). I also tried to remove the Firefox menu library items, however, the button delete them is not on either. I'm now concerned that items are spyware. I thought to reinstall the software, but it would mean losing all my favorites.

  For your information, I've just updated Firefox to 28.0.

  I would appreciate your help with this matter.

  Kind regards
  Suzanne

  Good to hear! I think you should be able to use the trackpad however. I think I remember to make it work on Mac a friends (first one I've listed below, in this web page)-use two fingers and tap the trackpad. I think you might have to watch that you don't type it too lightly, or he doesn't know what you're trying to do.

  On this second which says to use the CTRL, to my memory, the Mac is not that (it does now, maybe)... I think I had to use a different key that was downstairs left... Google Images, I see that there are four: fn, control, option, command... If the control key does not work, my next guess would be to use the option or command key. It's easy to see which experience.

  If you press and hold the function key, and then regular - click on the bookmark you want to delete, isn't that bring up the contextual menu? It's rather than just giving the bookmark two fingers tap.

  • * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

  Use the tap two fingers on the trackpad, not a click, just a light tap with two fingers.

  • * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

  If you have a mouse with a button, hold down the CTRL key, and then click the mouse button.

  If you have a magic mouse, press and hold the mouse on the right side.

  Otherwise, go to system-> Trackpad-> Point & Click Preferences and select your preferred option for "secondary click."

• How can I get Bookmarks Toolbar to go to the bottom of the list at the top?

  Just reinstalled 27 after a crash of my PC. I imported my favorites from my HTML code, but cannot get the bookmarks toolbar to return at the top of the list of bookmarks, above Menu bookmarks.

  Also, how can I get my bookmarks toolbar folder bookmarks will appear at the top of my screen again? Thank you!-Liz

  Looks like you have two folders that are labeled Bookmarks Toolbar, what happens when you 'import' a bookmarks.html file. "Import" adds existing bookmarks located in Firefox; do a "restore" a json backup would have replaced all existing bookmarks by those that are in the backup backup json file.

  You need to "reorganize" the bookmarks that are located in the Bookmarks Toolbar folder lower (bookmarks that you have any) and enter these bookmarks in the current folder to the Favorites bar, which is at the top of the list.

• How can I import bookmarks from a device I don't have?

  I had SEVERAL bookmarks saved on my old laptop, who died unexpectedly (isn't that the way it always is?) I need to get my favorites on this new laptop. How can I do this?

  Well that all depends on one thing. The machine starts? If so, you can do everything via Firefox itself. Two ways that you can get there:

  • Go to bookmarks > show all bookmarks

  or

  • Press CTRL, SHIFT key, B
  • Click on import and backup > backup
  • Save the JSON file safe for you can transfer it to the wire using a USB key.
  • In the new Firefox, do the same method above to bookmarks
  • Click on import and backup > restore and navigate to where you have the JSON file and all your existing bookmarks will be replaced by who was in your old configuration.

• Is there a limit to how many folders of bookmarks Firefox can import?

  I just installed Firefox 14 and tried to import my favorites to Internet Explorer 8. I have 236 files in Internet Explorer, but only 160 imported to Firefox. Is there a limit to how many folders of bookmarks Firefox can transfer? Just to be clear, I'm not talking to real Favorites, I 12 487, but rather the Bookmarks folders.

  No, but there are sometimes problems with the import of favorites of IE directly.

  If you have 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.
  
  Like that you also preserve any sort you did in Internet Explorer with favorites.

  • Export Favorites in Internet Explorer to a file (bookmarks.html) HTML: file > import and export
  • Import the HTML file in Firefox: bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > import HTML: from a file
