• How to import bookmarks into Firefox from another disk hard which has Firefox installed on it but is no longer the primary drive?

  I was running firefox on your desktop. The hard drive became unusable as the main drive, either because of a software installation which has left the operating system unstable or malicious software or both. The hard drive has been cleaned of malware, but has been replaced by a new hard disk that has a new installation of firefox. Operating has been and is Windows XP. The old hard disk which is now F:\ is still in the computer. There are lots and lots of bookmarks on F; \... Firefox I need to import the Firefox on C:\. In my opinion, these are the .json files. Can I copy and paste or import bookmarks?

• Could not find the option to import bookmarks into Firefox 7

  I want to import my Internet Explorer Favorites. Firefox Help said that there is an option called "Import" in the menu drop down "file". This command does not appear in my newly installed FF 7.0b2. I also took "Import my favorites" during installation, but it didn't happen. I was already running Internet Explorer v 9

  Had trouble finding too but found here: tab Firefox, bookmarks, display all the bookmarks, then theres a tab at the top who said import and backup.

• Import bookmarks into FF32 does not work. I tried swapping places that previously worked, I tried to import the bookmarks menu.

  It is a windows computer 8 that was RELEASED yesterday that I'm trying to set up again.

  I have copies of the bookmarks on a different drive (and in fact on another computer in windows 8 FF27)-I can not move the bookmarks on the computer reset.

  I did not attempt to move the entire profile yet just place and also tried to export/import bookmarks.

  I just reinstalled FF32 and have the same problem. Yesterday, I managed to move 'places' on the windows computer with FF27 8.

  somehow it works now - it wasn't a few minutes ago but I have bookmarks now and you can add them

  I tried many suggestions - "you can try to delete the prefs.js file and the compatibility.ini file to force Firefox to reset profile." - tried but alone is not enough

  I also installed Java during this process - it was probably necessary and could be automatic to a techno but I am a mathematician not a computer person. I know that I had installed java in the last days, but it is not visible in a search for the word java so I downloaded again.

  I took favorite save file places.sqlite and bookmarks off labour win 8 machine and tried to move them in the right spots in the files - did not work at first

  I found out the date on the work machine win 8 was a day and so when I open a backup bookmark that was old enough with all the other changes, I did finally worked.

  I see now where the star bookmarking moved - I liked the star in the address bar. I normally just use the history. I also don't like the tabs on the top and the other toolbars hidden and change some people during the installation. I'll change those two win 8 for my taste this week, but all of these changes were not urgent.

  I gave up control of that reset the PC to its 'owner' until the next disaster. I know that I have a program left to install (not an emergency I was told) and a handful of files to straighten again, but this last thing is status quo around here.

  Thank you for all the ideas.

  There are also some system # 4 - Windows 7 with FF31 which is my main computer - System #2 exists, as it was purchased for me but I've not used. I hate Windows 8 and hate the idea of moving all my files on it. But there are enough problems on this CPU as if I gave it away as a hand me down, I spent too much time trying to fix it for my spouse so they got a PC brand new instead of replace XP. When I gave them the XP that they had 'clean' with a fresh install of XP on one just cleaned HD.

• How to import bookmarks to Firefox Firefox OSX Win7?

  How to import bookmarks from Win7 to my firefox OSX?

  Firefox supports two different Exchange formats:

  • 'Backup' - fuller (like canned food tags) - JSON format once restored, replaces all existing bookmarks in the browser
  • 'Export' - compatible with other browsers - HTML format when they are imported, is added to any existing bookmarks in the browser

  Check out these articles and see if you can get the bookmarks when you need:

  • Restore backup bookmarks or move them to another computer
  • Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file for backup or transfer bookmarks
  • Importing bookmarks from an HTML file

  To physically move the bookmarks file, you can use:

  • removable media such as a USB Flash drive
  • storage cloud, for example, Dropbox, or an attachment to an email to yourself

  Finally, you could consider implementation service of Firefox sync if you want to keep the two Firefoxes synchronized. It is not necessary for a one-time transfer.

• Sync won't import bookmarks into the new device

  I got a new laptop. My old had the latest version of Firefox, with a sync account. I installed FF on my new laptop, connected to sync, and I connected. However, the bookmarks on my old FF do not come in my new. Under sync on both browsers settings, all the boxes ticked. Can someone help me please? Thank you!

  You probably use the 'old' (more useful, IMO) Sync on your old FF.
  Mozilla allows users to update existing installations of Firefox and use the synchronization of the former
  but NOT with the new installation of Firefox.

  How old was your old FF, you will first need to update,
  While it will be able to connect to the new synchronization and re-download your old timing for synchronization settings:

• 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.

• How can I import bookmarks Opera 25.0 in firefox?

  I am moving 25.0 Opera for firefox, but can't move my favorites.

  -It has no option in Opera to export bookmarks to HTML.

  -In my Appdata folder the bokmarks are stored as Bookmarks.bak, and I don't know how to convert this file to HTML, so I can import it into firefox.

  -If I choose "import bookmarks from other browsers' firefoxes bookmarks manager, I can choose between chrome and IE, but no Opera.

  This is a backup copy of your bookmarks bar. The original must be simply called bookmarks without file extension.

  Apparently, you can place these files in your profile Chrome folder and export bookmarks in Chrome.

• Why Firefox crash when I try to import bookmarks from Chrome?

  Tried 3 times to import bookmarks, but Firefox crashes when it gets to "Favorites" after having copied the cookies and history of the "items to import" window navigation. Checked all Chrome bookmarks to find mistakes etc., cleaned and then tried but always crashing. Only in Firefox which blocks everything else works well.

  How can I import bookmarks from Chrome (old system) in Mozilla (new system)?

  Chrome Bookmarks Manager allows you to export the Favorites to an HTML file. If you type "chrome://bookmarks" in the address bar of Chrome and take a look under the "Organize" menu you will find the option.

  Once you have the HTML file, you can import it into Firefox on any system. Open the Firefox bookmarks library and look for the option 'Import Bookmarks HTML'.

• Not all of my Internet Explorer Favorites import into Firefox Bookmarks.

  I can't transfer all my Firefox bookmarks. Transfer always stops in the same place and do not transfer the rest.

  Thank you

  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.
  
  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: file > import and export
  • Import the HTML file in Firefox: bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > import HTML: from a file

  Note that there is a version of Firefox was released for iOS that may allow you to use Firefox Sync to link your bookmarks to desktop and mobile.
