• I need keystrokes to import and export bookmarks

  I'm blind and use programs output speech to run my windows 8.1 machine and of course impossible to use a traditional mouse. I arrow and tab through each accessible section of the menu of bookmarks, but also with key applications and could find no way that focuses on the key to the achievement of each task. I also tried her curse and swear!

  Hi Eggman,

  This seems incredibly frustrating. The following worked for me:

  1. launch Firefox and press Tab six times to access the bookmarks menu. Press ENTER.

  2. press Alt then arrow up once, and then the right arrow twice to reach the menu import and backup of bookmarks.

  Once you are in the menu import and backup, it's just a matter of selecting the desired option (import bookmarks HTML, export bookmarks in HTML format, or to import bookmarks from another browser).

  I hope that this will take you quite far as your program of speech output can guide you the rest of the way.

• Accidentally crushed my backup original .json. Could not import the recovered bookmark from the bookmarks backup folder in Firefox profiles.

  I accidentally replaced my backup with current bookmarks while trying to import from it. The original bookmarks were not present to Bookmark Backup in the profiles, so I used Recuva for recovering. Now, Firefox gives the "unable to process backup file" thingy.

  System Restore didn't help either.

  I managed to recover intact bookmarked using Recuva, deep search in the Profiles folder.

• Find and import bookmarks from old version of FF to the last FF

  Hey, guys. Just built a new computer and the old HARD disk for data drives are installed. Computer now running off SSD drives, Win7 and reinstalled apps. Installed the last FF (11) and realized how much my missing favorites are. I think the old version was 3. ???. But by using the suggestions here, http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Recovering%20important%20data%20from%20an%20old%20profile just do not seem relevant in my case or I simply don't get it. There is no file "places.sqlite" for example is on my old 'C' drive, which is the place where the old FF operated since. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  All the best, Don

  What you have to do is find the APPDATA folder on your old hard drive. This is usually a hidden folder. If you read your backup information, it will tell you where this folder is usually. Don't forget that need you to do this on your old drive (which if you plugged it into your new PC is probably not labeled C).

  Then, when you find this file, just drill down to your profile and you should have all of the files that are discussed in the recovery of data from an old profile. Then copy it into your new profile!

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

  I have a certain Favorites I want to import into Firefox, Internet Explorer, and I don't know how to do that / even if you can do it.

  In Internet Explorer:

  then in Firefox:
  
  Bookmarks > organize bookmarks-> import and backup - import HTML... = HTML file

  There are other ways to do it, but it will merge these favorites of IE with your Firefox bookmarks.

• How can I move bookmarks from old laptop XP to new Windows 7 one?

  My new laptop (still awaiting delivery) will have Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit. I read on this site that it's OK to use Firefox, even though it is designed for 32-bit, but I don't know how to transfer my favorites.

  I took a glance at the sync add-on. Unfortunately, this has been deleted by its developer.

  Anyone know how I can transfer the bookmarks on the new laptop?

  Thank you.

• When you export your bookmarks from old pc to new pc, your bookmarks will also remain on the old pc?

  I want to stay because the old pc still works

  Yes, if you use the HTML export format or the more comprehensive backup JSON format and copy the file to the new PC, the two are completely independent. However, if you have set up the synchronization, then the two will be linked and often changes over to another (for better or for worse!).

  • Restore backup bookmarks or move them to another computer
  • Firefox bookmarks export to a HTML for backup or transfer Favorites + Favorites to an HTML file import
  • Use of Sync for sharing your Firefox bookmarks and passwords with Firefox for mobile (or another computer in office)

• Problems copying bookmarks from old Hard Drive to new hard drive

  The motherboard on my old Windows Vista 64 - bit is dead. The hard drive is still accessible. I bought a new PC with Windows 7 and installed Firefox. I find the.default file for Firefox on the old drive hard and copied and pasted in my new profile on my new hard drive. The old hard drive is connected to my new PC with an external hard drive enclosure. I tried looking for in my old profile user Firefox hard disk of old. I do this by clicking on my old username, go to Program Files (x 86) and only one program file that I found for DNA. Firefox has been installed on my old PC, so I'm surprised that I can't find what it listed under Program Files (x 86) on this drive. If I search the old drive for 'signet', it evokes my bookmarksbackup and other files of bookmarks '.json '. I tired bookmarksbackup copy for my new Firefox profile on the new hard drive and it seems to work, but the old bookmarks do not appear when I open Firefox. I looked at the links troubleshooting for the same problem that others have posted, but they seem irrelevant, because I can't find the sqlite or the directory where my old Firefox settings are stored on my old hard drive. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

  Firefox settings are not stored in program files, but they are stored under APPDATA.

  If you take the newer JSON file you have, open Firefox, press Control, Shift and B at the same time, then go to "Import and backup" then 'restore', then choose file, you can import it like this?

• Download/install... Import bookmarks from IE8... OK 'IE8 Favorites "; 'Toolbar of IE8' says 'empty '... Imported 3 times; still empty...?

  Basically, the Bookmarks imported for IE8 is displayed correctly under 'Bookmarks', but when I activated the personal bar, the button has been added, but says "blank"... I did the whole process 3 times; same result... Need help!

  You may need to manually move the bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar folder if this folder is currently empty and you have IE Favorites folder "From the Internet Explorer" in the Menu folder bookmarks.
