HOW DO I SAVE MY BOOKMARKS FROM FIREFOX AS I HAVE TO REINSTALL WINDOW ON MY LAPTOP

This would be a multistep process. First you would need Firefox on your desktop computer then import the bookmarks from IE into Firefox. Then once the bookmarks are in Firefox they can be synced to Firefox mobile.

I have to agree, fixing something that was working fine and replacing it with the new crap has led me to switch browsers.BIG FAIL MOZILLA
Why do people do this shit.
Turn off updating to keep your good working version or you will be forced to use the new version that is missing some well used features.

How do i retrieve bookmarks from firefox 3.6 on operating system windows xp to put on operating system windows 7

I was running firefox3.6 on windows xp, now i have windows 7 and need to retrieve my bookmarks from firefox 3.6. I am taking on-line classes and need this information.

How do I retreive my bookmarks from Firefox on a HD in an enclosure containing my old laptop's data that died, but which acts like an external?.

My old laptop died but my hard drive was fine, and I was able to retrieve a lot of my data by accessing it through an enclosure. I am not, however, able to retrieve my bookmarks. I can open my old copy of Firefox on my new computer but the bookmarks aren't there, and I never backed them, or my profile up. All Firefox tries to do is update itself, and there aren't any bookmark files that I can find.
Are these bookmarks retrievable?

*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
You can find the Firefox profile folder in this location:
*/Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/<profile>/
In Mac OS X v10.7 and later, the ~/Library folder is a hidden folder.

Can I restore bookmarks from Firefox Home on iphone to reinstalled Firefox 6?

I have Firefox home synced on iphone 4 with all my bookmarks etc.
I downgraded to Firefox 6 from 7 as so many of my add ons etc wouldn't work on it. Now I want to 'restore' my bookmarks etc from the iphone via sync but can't seem to stop both Firefox 6 and the Firefox home from giving me codes to enter into each other at the same time. Is there a way?

Hi!
Unfortunately this is not possible. Did you ever recorded the Recovery Key and safe that? If so you can log-in to your Sync account with it. Follow these instructions: [[How do I set up Firefox Sync?]] Specifically the section "What if I'm not near my computer?" at the bottom.
The explanation is that Firefox Home is just a client that receives information from the server and doesn't send the information back to the server, so if you reset the Recovery Key the information in the server will be destroyed and the old information will not be uploaded again. And it doesn't show the Recovery Key either.
Let me know if this helps, and sorry to be the carrier of the bad news.

How to transfer bookmarks from firefox 4 to 5

how can I transfer my bookmarks from firefox 4 (on xp) to 5 (on Windows 7)?

Export your bookmarks (file menu in Safari, from the Show All Bookmarks option in Firefox) and save to your HD. Copy the saved .html file to the other Mac over the network, or by copying the file to a USB stick and copying to the other Mac, or emailing them to the other Mac. On the other Mac import the Bookmarks file into your browser of choice,

I somehow deleted a folder filled with bookmarks from Safari. I have the same folder on my Firefox application. How do I transfer the folder on Firefox over to Safari?

I found the post under the "More Like This" window at the top right of the Discussions page:
Essentially, it led me to:
In my case I didn't want to import all of my bookmarks, just a folder.
What I did was: In Firefox: Bookmarks > Organize
Select the file folder of bookmarks I wanted to move to Safari
Under the "star"icon in toolbar, select Export HTML
Select location to save the file, then SAVE
Open Safari,
Import Bookmark....

How do I transfer my bookmarks from one computer to another? I have Firefox Home on my phone and I can get them there, but I want to have the same bookmarks on my home computer as I do on my work computer.

How do I transfer my bookmarks from one computer to another? I have Firefox Home on my phone and I can get them there, but I want to have the same bookmarks on my home computer as I do on my work computer. If I have a user name then where do I sign into Firefox, it should be that easy but I can't seem to figure it out.

Hey susanneyes,
Sounds like you want to set up Firefox Sync. This will allow you to keep all of your instances of Firefox synchronized. Just follow the steps in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/what-firefox-sync?s=sync&r=0&as=s this article] and you'll be set.
Hopefully this helps!

I am not able to access Firefox under one user account on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

I use windows Vista and I cannot open Firefox under one user account (I keep receiving the "firefox profile cannot be loaded . . ." error message) on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

NOTE: you can skip this 1st step.
Step 1
I'm on Win7 so the paths might be slightly different... C:\Users\(YOUR PC ACCOUNT)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bnelgkol.default\bookmarkbackups ... Find the "bookmarks-[DATE].json" you want and copy it to the profile you want. You may want to change the date to a name you will recognize.
Step 2
Then on your browser "Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks or Ctrl+Shift+B ". This will bring up the Bookmark Organizer, I think they call it Library now. From there click "Import & Back up>Restore" this will bring up a drop down with your back ups. If you followed step 1, find the json you added and select it. If you skipped step 1, from "Import & Back up>Restore" select "Choose File..." Then browser for the json you want to import. Which should be in a similar location as mentioned in step 1.
NOTE: "AppData" is a hidden folder, will have to set show hidden folders to be able to see it.

I am receiving a "couldn't load XPCOM" error. I know that I can reinstall Firefox but how do I save my bookmarks?

I am receiving a "couldn't load XPCOM" error. I know that I can reinstall Firefox but when I went to do that it erased all of my bookmarks so I did a system restore. How do I save my bookmarks?

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
*Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Sorry. Sync isn't really intended as a backup medium as you were trying to use it for. It isn't meant to be a storage "cloud". It's purpose is to keep Firefox bookmarks synchronized across multiple Firefox installations or Profiles - so all your bookmarks are the same on each device / Profile.
