I am currently using Firefox on my desktop or portable 38.0 and need to import my favorites of the laptop on my desk which also has Firefox 38.0. Please provide details on how to perform this procedure.
Thank you

Pretty simple and easy, not only are there alternative methods, as is often the case in computing, but different methods produce different results.
Aid articles have more complete explanations with step by step instructions and screenshots.You have the choice of four methods depending on what you're trying to reach. Ask you what set of bookmarks is the largest and most complex?
Import and export of the a.)
This adds bookmarks. It spikes on the existing ones. (For example, if the laptop: unsorted, folder of bookmarks and bookmarks are now additional folders in the existing desktop bookmarks menu.)
Useful to simply do what you asked: export the Favorites of the laptop and import those on the desktop.
However, if the office is new and has only a few bookmarks on it, but the laptop has the major then consider- Export of the desktop as a HTML file.
- Backup of the laptop to create a .json file
- Restore the .json laptop on the desktop file.
- Follow-up to import HTML file
- Office has now all the bookmarks of the laptop, as well as his own originals
See
- Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file for backup or transfer bookmarks
- Importing bookmarks from an HTML file
(B) backup and restore
This procedure by report written all existing bookmarks. He retained the structure of folders and bookmark labels. Ideal if bookmarks of laptop are the only ones that you care. Or combine the two methods, as suggested above.(C.) manually replace the bookmarks and the historical database.
Not what you asked but that also gets the history information.
This is useful if you often rely on the addessbar acting as the awesomebar- Backup and restore Firefox profiles information
- Awesome Bar - Find your Firefox bookmarks, history, tabs in the address bar
(D.) sync
An alternative is to use Firefox Sync. Who should ensure that the laptop and the Office have the same bookmarks.
However if you do this save your bookmarks manually before the first sync bookmarks. I highly recommend that if synchronize you bookmarks you make regular manual backups too, because Sync itself can sometimes corrupt and duplicates of bookmarks. (If you do not notice this corruption quickly you can't have automated bookmarks that are free of corruption.) -

I have some Favorites in my default browser (browser CM) and not savor the idea of manually re-create all. I also want to keep them organized by categories. -File system is very useful.
The model of authorisation for Android does not access other apps to their settings. Chrome and the stock Android browser have some special access rules that allow to see the bookmarks of other applications. Also, is it possible to import bookmarks from Chrome or the stock Android browser.
Bookmark management can be done in Firefox via Firefox Sync Office. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-set-up-firefox-sync

How to import bookmarks from search keyword?
When I reinstall my computer, I often also clean my firefox profile, because it tends to become bloated and slow down the browser.
The most boring on this subject, it is my favorite keyword research do not work. They follow my other favorites thanks to Sync FF, but they lose their functionality.
Is it possible to import bookmarks from search keyword once again, or do I go through each site, I added a keyword for and make again?
As well a backup of HTML and a JSON support save the keyword, you can use one of these to have a backup of bookmarks.

Import bookmarks from Safari to Firefox 36.0.4 5.1.10
I can't import bookmarks from Safari Firefox 36.0.4 5.1.10. I do not see "Library" or "Bookmark manager" or something (I think I saw a function import in an earlier version of Firefox) which is often considered online. I have a white iMac under Snow Leopard (10.6.8)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
When you install firefox for the first time, you should automatically see an import dialog box. If you have already installed firefox, follow these instructions:
1. go in the bookmarks menu, then choose "Show all bookmarks" (gives you the library)
2. in the row of icons at the top, click on the button that has a star with a clock inside icon (fifth from the left)
3. Select 'import data from another browser.
4. choose "safari".
5. choose what information you want to import (you can also import your preferences and history) -
Import bookmarks from another browser chrome or IE
I've been using Comodo browser before and have all my favorites here. Although Comodo browser is chrome based I could not import my favorites.
Please notify.
Thank youFirefox will import bookmarks from Chrome, but obviously not from the browser from Comodo.
Please check with the Comodo browser support and ask them how export your bookmarks in bookmarks.html format, as all browsers I've never seen used for import bookmarks / favorites that were exported from a different brand - and browser to export even.
The bookmarks.html format is / was the unofficial standard for import and export to and from web browsers for many years, but not all browsers still supports this "standard."
I don't use Chrome and Opera (based on WebKit, as Chrome) according to me does not seem to support the bookmarks.html format to export bookmarks more - or I didn't want this feature in Opera quite hard.

Firefox 15.0.1 cannot import bookmarks from Safari 6.0.1
Hello
Firefox 15.0.1 cannot import bookmarks from Safari 6.0.1.
I followed the steps below:
(1) all bookmarks in Safari to export to a file (file-> export bookmarks) HTML
(2) import bookmarks into Firefox (bookmarks-> Show all bookmarks-> import and backup-> import bookmarks in HTML)Firefox seems to load the HTML file, but never bookmarks appear in Firefox.
Any thoughts of why this is happening?
Best,
Jaime. -.
You need to remove all the attributes of FOLDED into H3 tags with a text editor.
Then the import should work.See also page 2 [932927/questions/932927]
