How do I move my bookmarks from XP to my new Windows 7 machine?

I have a new Windows 7 machine (Firefox 3.6.12) and want to move my bookmarks from my old XP machine (Firefox 3.6.12). I've read the help pages but find it incomprehensible. I don't want my whole profile moved (not that I could figure out how to do that), just my bookmarks. PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO DO THAT IN SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS.
Thank you.

If you just want the bookmarks you just need to back them up, copy the file to the new computer and import them from that file. The details are shown here - [[backing up and restoring bookmarks]].

    new computer, loaded Firefox 4. What happened to bookmark sidebar? How do I get it back? How do I move my bookmarks from old computer to new computer?
    old computer is offline, so if I have to make a copy of something hopefully it can be done offline.
    Don't really understand why windows 7 renders Firefox so different that XP. Will change, but really like the old feel.

  • How do I move my bookmarks from my old laptop to my new laptop without having to enter them one at a time?

    I just want to move my bookmarks to Firefox in my new laptop computer.

    The most convenient method is to export to a file, then copy/email the file, then import from the file. The most straightforward format is the HTML format. These articles describe the steps:

    '''Please note:''' the menu item formerly named "Organize Bookmarks" is now known as "Show All Bookmarks" in Firefox 4 and 5.

  • How Do I Move My Data From Old MacBook to New MacBook Pro?

    Hey everyone
    So I just bought a new Macbook Pro 15" to replace my old black Macbook. My old Mac runs Tiger and is an Intel Core 2 Duo. I was wondering, how do I move my files over to the new Macbook? Do I use a FireWire? If so, does the data from my old Macbook get deleted or is it still on the old computer?
    I've never done something like this before so if anybody can help me on the file transfer methods, that would be great! Basically I'm hoping that all my music, photos, my iPhone data, etc.. all get successfully put on my new Macbook!
    Thanks!

    Hi and congrats on your new Mac.
    Use the Migration Assistant (Applications/Utilities)
    If both computers are using Mac OS X, you can connect the two computers with a FireWire cable and use Migration Assistant, located in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder. Migration Assistant transfers your files and important settings to your new computer.
    Just launch the Migration Assistant application and follow the instructions.

  • How do I move my contacts from TimeMachine to my new Mac?

    Hi all. My old MBP was one with a faulty nvidia graphics card, and it conveniently went out 22 days after the warranty was void, so I've since bought a new MBA currently running 10.7.2. I have a few contacts on my TimeMachine backup from my old MBP that I'll never get again in my entire life if I can't move them over from my external hard drive. Is there a way to do it? I don't particularly want to restore my old machine on the new one—only the contacts from AddressBook. Can it be done? Help!
    -stewart

    Normal files are relatively easy, via the Browse Other Backup disks option, but this is a tough one. 
    AddressBook contacts are, well, weird.  The way they're stored makes it very difficult to find them; and you can't use the browse option with the special handler for Address Book contacts.
    They're stored in the <your home folder>/Library/Application Support/AddressBook folder.  Each contact is a separate file inside the Metadata folder there, but you can't tell which one is which, since they're named with UUIDs that look like gibberish, not anything recognizable to us mere mortals.
    Here's what I'd suggest:
    Use the Migration Assistant app to transfer part of the user account from the old Mac's backups (temporarily).
    For details, see Using Migration Assistant on Lion. If that user account has the same as an existing one on your new Mac, rename it, per the last sample in the pink Migrating User Accounts box. 
    Select only the user account that has the contacts, and exclude all its sub-folders.  That will transfer everything in the Library sub-folder, including, of course, all the contacts.
    Log on to the transferred account.  Start the AddressBook app and locate the contacts you want. 
    For each one, select the contact, then File > Export > Export vCard from the menubar.  Select a destination (such as the default of the special Shared user account) for the contact. 
    Log on to the account where you want the contacts and start AddressBook.  Click File > Import from the menubar.  That should default to the Shared user account; select all the contacts and click the Open button to import them.
    When done, delete them from the Shared user account, and delete the temporary user account.

  • How do I move Adobe Presenter (subscription edition) onto a new Windows PC?

    I want to move my installation of Adobe Presenter to a new Windows laptop which will be replacing the old one.  How do I transfer the licence (I rent Adobe Presenter on the subscription arrangement)?  There doesn't seem to be a licence number for it.
    Thanks

    I believe that it is tied to your Adobe login (I'm taking a shot in the dark). Under the help menu in the Presenter tab, you may see a deactivate or logout option, which should make it so that installation is un-registered. Then you should be able to install it on the new computer.
    You may also be able to have it installed twice without deactivating it, but you may need to look at your User Agreement from the subscription purchase to verify that.

  • How can I prevent a tab from chaning into a new window by itself

    When I play a video, and open another tab, the tab with the video will sometimes change into a whole new window. I don't click anything specific to make the tab change into a window, it will just do it a few minutes after I open the new tab. Does anyone have a clue on how to prevent this. Thank you!

    Make sure that you do not drag a tab in the browser window.<br />
    Current Firefox versions have a feature called tear-off tabs.<br />
    You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.<br />
    You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

  • How can I move my bookmarks from one laptop to another without losing those on the destination laptop?

    I have an older laptop that has a lot of bookmarks that I want to save onto a newer laptop. I've been told that I can move them easily enough, but that that procedure will wipe out the bookmarks on the destination laptop. How can I avoid that?

    Your contacts should be on your computer.
    You should have been syncing them with your computer from day one.
    have you failed to do this?

  • How can I move my bookmarks from one user to another user?

    I recently created a new user and would like to move the favorites in a particular folder to the new user without having to individually copy and past them. What is the easiest way to do this?

    You can restore a JSON backup from the not working profile in the current Firefox profile.
