How do I transfer bookmarks from Firefox 3.6 on one computer to Firefox 4 on another computer?

I have a new HP 6720 Pavillion Desktop using Windows 7 and downloaded FF4.0 to it. I have bookmarks in FF3.6 on an older computer using XP and have exported Firefox to a jump drive. I need step by step instructions on how to get my old FF profile info including bookmarks transfered to my new computer.By the way, I need the same instructions for transfering my Outlook email files and address book on the old computer to Thunderbird on the new one. Thanks

You can export the bookmarks using Firefox 3.6 to a json file, then restore that file to Firefox 4 on the new computer. For details see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Backing+up+and+restoring+bookmarks
If you want to copy more than just the bookmarks, the following links show how to do that:

iCloud Bookmarks add-on for Firefox
How to turn on bookmark updating and install the iCloud Bookmarks add-on
With iCloud Control Panel 3.0 or later, you can keep your bookmarks updated between Firefox for Windows and your other devices.
Check the iCloud system requirements to make sure that your version of Firefox is supported by iCloud Control Panel.
Quit Firefox if it's open, then download iCloud Control Panel and install it.
Open the iCloud Control Panel and sign in:

Read the End User License Agreement, then click Accept and Install. Click Install Now.
The Add-ons Manager should now show that the iCloud Bookmarks add-on is enabled. Your iCloud bookmarks will begin updating in Firefox.
Note: If you installed Firefox after installing iCloud Control Panel and you don't see the option to update your bookmarks with Firefox, close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.How to turn off bookmark updating
The recommended way to disable bookmark updating between Firefox and iCloud is to turn off Firefox updates in iCloud Control Panel:

Click Remove if you wish to permanently stop updating your iCloud bookmarks with Firefox.
If you delete bookmarks while the iCloud Bookmarks add-on is disabled, be aware of the following if you later choose to enable the add-on again:
If you enable the add-on directly within Firefox, the bookmarks that you deleted are removed from all of your other devices that use iCloud Bookmarks.
If you enable the add-on using iCloud Control Panel, the bookmarks that you deleted aren't removed from your other devices, and the bookmarks on your other devices are added back to Firefox.
Note: Before you consider deleting bookmarks, learn how to archive or make copies of your iCloud data.What to do if bookmarks aren't updating
If bookmarks don't appear to be updating between Firefox and your devices, confirm that the iCloud Bookmarks add-on is still enabled:
Open Firefox.
Choose Firefox > Add-ons.
If the iCloud Bookmarks add-on is not enabled, click Enable to turn on bookmarks updating.
When a Firefox update is incompatible with the iCloud Bookmarks add-on, Firefox automatically disables the add-on. If you don't disable automatic updates, Firefox will later update and enable the add-on when an updated version from Apple is available from the Add-on store.

On Windows Vista and Windows 7, profile folders are in this location, by default:
C:\Users\<Windows login/user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>.
The AppData folder is a hidden folder; to show hidden folders, open a Windows Explorer window and choose "Organize → Folder and Search Options → Folder Options → View (tab) → Show hidden files and folders".
On Windows 2000, XP, Vista, and Windows 7, you can also use this path to find the profile folder, even when it is hidden:
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>
%APPDATA% is a variable represents the C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>Application Data folder on Windows 2000/XP and the C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming folder on Windows vista and Windows 7. Image:Appdata.png
To find a profile folder in the default location on Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or Windows 7:
Press "Windows key Image:Windows_Key.png + R" to open the Run box
(or, you can click "Start → Run..." on Windows 2000/XP)
In the Run box, type in %APPDATA%
Click OK. A Windows Explorer window will appear.
In this window, choose Mozilla → Firefox → Profiles.
Each folder in the "Profiles" folder (e.g., "xxxxxxxx.default") is a profile on your computer.

How to transfer bookmarks from Safari on one computer over to another?

I have two computers, both running Safari 1.3.x in OSX 10.3.9. The computers are connected via Ethernet so I can transfer any files I want between them.
Computer A, my old computer, has all my hundreds of bookmarks in Safari. Computer B, my new computer, has no bookmarks yet. How can I transfer all my bookmarks en masse from the Safari on Computer A to the Safari on Computer B?
There must be a file or something that contains all the bookmarks, but I can't figure out which one it is.
Thanks.

Never mind, I discovered the answer myself after a bit of poking around. The file is called "Bookmarks.plist" and is found in the user's "Library>Safari" under 10.3.9. I simply threw away the "Bookmarks.plist" from my new computer, then copied the old computer's "Bookmarks.plist" to the same location on the new computer, then fired up Safari on the new computer -- voila! All the old bookmarks appeared in the new version of Safari on the new computer.
Problem solved.

How to transfer bookmarks from solar01 to Test Workbench

Hi colleagues,
I am responsible for Test management in a implementation project. The customer has used the new bookmark feature in solar 01 to avoid redundant process documentation/configuration in solar01/02. Unfortunately the bookmarks are not transfered to Testworkbench. Changing the bookmarks to real copies is not an option because this would cause inconsistencies in the existing synchronization with ARIS. Are there any customizing options or workarounds to take the bookmarks over to stwb.
thanks, Peter

Hi Jason,
thanks for your answer! Seems that one simple workarround could be resolving the bookmarks for testing and then wait for the next Aris sync run. Prerequisites on Aris side should be attributing the processes/process steps as bookmarks. (option has to be verified).
But I think this is not a final solution, so I will recommend to open an OSS-Message.
THX, Peter

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 import Bookmarks from Firefox 28.0 into Firefox 29.0.1?

How do I import Bookmarks from Firefox 28.0 into Firefox 29.0.1? I am running OS X 10.7.5 and just updated Firefox from 28.0 to 29.0.1. How do I import my old 28.0 bookmarks into 29.0.1? I've tried all the suggestions but nothing works. WHERE are my old bookmarks? Help, please!

Your bookmarks can be imported and exported from the Library (Bookmarks Manager).
*Go to the clipboard icon, click Show All Bookmarks <i>OR</i> press Cmd + Shift + B
*Once there, you'll see Import and Backup (see screenshot), you have a choice to choose between backing up as a JSON (Import and Backup -> Backup) or HTML (Import and Backup - > Export bookmarks to HTML)
Once this is done and the file has been backed up, you can import them using the same method (Import & Backup -> Backup for JSON/Import & Backup -> Import bookmarks from HTML (HTML)
One of our awesome contributors explained the difference between a JSON backup and a HTML backup that is very explanatory:
Restoring a JSON backup will replace all your current bookmarks (you get a warning about that), so if you already have bookmarks that you wish to keep then export them to an HTML file before restoring the JSON backup.
You can import that HTML file after you have restored the JSON backup to get your current bookmarks back (you need to remove duplicates).
You can't import a JSON backup to add (merge) bookmarks.
Importing bookmarks from an HTML file adds the imported bookmarks to the already existing bookmarks, so you may need to remove duplicates.
An HTML backup doesn't support tags and annotations, so if you want to preserve those then you need to use a JSON backup.
A JSON backup doesn't preserve the website favicons, so you need to visit a website to get back that favicon.

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.

How to take manually back-up bookmarks from Firefox and put into Favorites in Explorer

I just changed jobs. My last job used Firefox, my new job uses Explorer. I previously did a manual back up of my bookmarks from Firefox. Is there a way now to get them into Explorer?

For cross-browser compatibility, you should have '''exported''' your bookmarks in '''HTML''' format. <br />
Create a new Profile in a Firefox installation and '''restore''' that '''json''' file, then '''export''' in '''HTML''' format. You can trash that new Profile when your'e done if you don't want it.

When deleting bookmarks from Firefox, why does the program respond differently on similar installs to different computers all running OS X?

On the subject of bookmarks...
The following procedure works for deleting bookmarks on my MacBook Pro, my iMac, and my Mac mini...
If the bookmark is itself a tab on the toolbar, right click on it and select delete by highlighting delete in the drop down menu that appears.
The following procedure works for deleting bookmarks on my MacBook Pro, but not my iMac or Mac mini...
If the toolbar tab is actually a folder containing bookmarks and possibly more folders, left click on the toolbar tab to open a drop down menu of other bookmarks/folders, highlight the one you want to delete, then right click on it and select delete by highlighting delete in the drop down menu.
On the iMac and Mac mini, right clicking on an item in the drop down menu of bookmarks/folders has no effect. It does not produce the additional drop down menu at all.
I can find no place to adjust this as a setting in preferences or anywhere else. Can you tell me why I am seeing a different response from the Firefox program on my MacBook Pro than I get from my other Macs?
All Macs are configured similarly and running OS X 10.6.5. All have Firefox 3.6.13 installed.
I realize there are many other ways to delete bookmarks from Firefox. My question is not about how to delete bookmarks, but rather why am I seeing the differing behavior from Firefox in other installs. It may well prove to be an issue within OS X rather than Firefox.

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes" then try to disable this feature.
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [ ] "Clear history when Firefox closes"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem
