I Can't import HTML Bookmarks in 4.0b9

No library in Firefox Bookmarks. Running OSX 10.6.6 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

I'm not sure about MacOSX, but on Windows and Linux, the menu item named ''' ''Organize Bookmarks'' ''' was changed to '''Show All Bookmarks''' to open the ''' "Library" ''' window. The keyboard command of {Ctrl/Cmd + Shft + B} still opens the "Library" window.

I can't import my bookmarks on Chrome to Firefox even after I followed the Firefox guide on how to do this.

I can't import my bookmarks from Google Chrome to Firefox (version 3.6.13) even though I followed the guide on how to do this.

Just figured out by accident how to change the .html file back to a .json file. Wherever the file is on your computer, open a CMD or DOS window up. If the file name is something like "bookmarks-2011-07-15.json.html" you can rename it using CMD, but it wont work in windows. Use these commands without the quotation marks.
"rename *.json.html *.json"
Their is one space between the l and *, "rename *.json.html(space)*.json"
That should effectively get rid of the .html at the end of the file. You should also see the file has the same icon it once had before having .html put on the end of it and it taking the icon of whatever web browser you are using. In Windows, not CMD, you might have to right click on the file and rename it again to get rid of the .json if it is showing, doing so wont affect the file anyway negatively. After it's renamed you can close the CMD window.
Now you should be able to import your bookmarks using the Firefox's "Imports and Backup > Restore > Choose File" menu and would you look at that, theirs your bookmarks.
Hope this helps even though it's now two plus months since first post.

How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox?

How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox? I have exported the Firefox bookmarks from my old PC into a [Windows 8] folder on my new PC.
When I use the Firefox import facility, it will only import one bookmark at a time - and then it bookmarks all the main pages on the bookmarked website, not just the one which I originally bookmarked. It also does not import the information stored in the bookmark tag.

Sure thing.
# Open the run dialog by holding the Windows key and pressing R
# Type <code>%appdata%</code> into the run window and press ok
# Open the ''Mozilla'' folder
# Open the ''Firefox'' folder
# Open the ''Profiles'' folder
# Copy the folder that is located in this folder to a USB drive
# Install and run Firefox on the new computer
# Close Firefox
# Repeat steps 1 to 5 on the new computer
# Open the folder that you copied from the old computer
# Copy the contents of that folder into the folder located inside of the new computer's profile folder
# Allow Windows to replace any duplicate folders with the ones that you are copying onto the computer is prompted

Can I import HTMLs from inside the project and use as portlet page ?

As you know, I am using Java Studio Creator 2 Update 1 for my current portal project. I have created JSR-168 JSF Portlet Project for my portlet development.
As I have some html pages ready for my development,
Can I import HTMLs from inside the project and use as portlet page for my project?
I did the followings steps:
1: In side the project - File -> Add Existing Item -> Web Page ( imported test.html page from my local folder)
2: Let it convert some of the tags for me ( so now it becomes - �test.jsp� )
3: Set it to initial view.
4. A default portlet page � newPortletPage.jsp is still there with no initial view.
Now after doing this, No Visual Designer and Properties window available to for that �test.jsp� page. Though it allowed me to �build� the project successfully.
When I build and run the portlet application, got the error message �Error occurred in portlet!� on Pluto Portal. Please advice.

You do not open fcpproject files. You don't double click or anything else. The files have to be in the correct folder structure in the Final Cut Projects folder and the application opens them automatically. Can you post screen shots of the Final Cut Projects folder and its location.

Firefox 4.0 no "manage bookmarks" no import html bookmarks?

When I go to your help files the answers are for versions prior to 4.0 In 4.0 there is no "manage bookmarks" selection on the menu. I want to import .html bookmark lists and .nab but all that comes up is IE.

Not sure why, but the manager/organizer was renamed to "Show All Bookmarks".

Can I import html files into Buzzword?

Can I import html files into Buzzword?

Thank you for your post.
Buzzword lets you import Microsoft Word (DOC, DOCX), plain text (TXT), Rich Text Format (RTF), Word 2003 XML, and Open Document Format (.odt) files. (Font substitution and other formatting changes sometimes occur on import, depending on the content of the document.) You'll need to convert your HTML file to one of the supported file types before importing to Buzzword.
Kind Regards,

Recently reformatted PC. Tried to import HTML bookmarks, but nothing happens. Tried other browsers, still does not work. How can I fix this?

Before reformatting my PC, I exported all my bookmarks via HTML file. I reformatted, installed Firefox, then tried to proceed with importing all my bookmarks. I go to the import function and choose the HTML bookmarks file and nothing happens at all. I tried using other browsers to import, but nothing happens. I am not sure how to fix this.
I thought maybe I could transfer the HTML file into a JSON file, but I couldn't find a way to do so, even after renaming the file extensions. Could the HTML file be possibly be corrupted? I'm out of ideas on how to import my bookmarks!
I really need to fix this, please help!

Make sure that the backup file with the bookmarks has the correct file extension:
* .html for a HTML backup
* .json for a JSON backup
You can check the type via the right-click context menu of that file and open the Properties. 
If you are not sure about the file type then you can open the file in Firefox via "File > Open File" 
A JSON backup will show as one long text line without line breaks and a HTML backup as a web page with clickable links.
A JSON backup starts with: <nowiki>{"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded":</nowiki> 
An HTML backup starts with: <nowiki><!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1></nowiki>
Add quotes ("") around the name to rename the file to the correct file extension if the current file extension is hidden or if it is otherwise not working. 
Verify the file type in the Properties via the right-click context menu to make sure that the change has been successful.

I can't import Seamonkey bookmarks because the only option shown on the "Import" screen in Firefox is for Internet Explorer.

On my XP computer the "import" option screen shows both IE and Netscape/Mozilla as choices; on this Windows 7 machine the only option is IE. Re-start doesn't help, and the installation of Firefox went smoothly.

You can export the bookmarks in SeaMonkey to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox. 
Which SeaMonkey version are you referring to?
* Export the favorites in SeaMonkey to an HTML file (bookmarks.html):
Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks > Tools > Export
* Import the HTML file in Firefox:
Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File

I can't import my bookmarks from Safari to Firefox

Hi, I'm using MacBook Pro for a month. I have hundreds of bookmarks on Safari. I want to import that bookmarks to Firefox 4.
Sorry for my bad english

Press either Alt or F10, that will temporarily display the traditional menus, you can then use "File > Import" to import from the HTML file.

Can i import old bookmarks in josn format

my computer crashed and i lost all of my bookmarks. All i can find is an old backup from over a year ago. it is saved in the josn file format. I have firefox 13 running on my computer. it doesn't give the option anymore to import bookmarks. How can i get my bookmarks back into firefox?

No problem that is the standard Firefox bookmarks format. BUT TAKE CARE, always make separate backups before trying importing such bookmarks as they overwrite any existing bookmarks.
* see Back up your bookmarks or move them to another computer
** ''edit ''link is [[Back up your bookmarks or move them to another computer]]
Also before attempting your year old restore
*that note you could have other backups generated automatically, so read the above linked article
*consider trying to find and backup your profile that normally contains useful bookmark files (including ''places.sqlite'' which if not corrupt is a complete history and bookmarks database)
**see [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
Post back with how you get on, or if you need more assistance after looking at the linked articles.

Can't import large bookmark file

I recently purchased another Windows computer. I installed Firefox and attempted to import my bookmarks file (html). I was only able to import folders in my bookmarks and nothing else. I then open my bookmark file in Firefox and the bookmarks I want are still there. The bookmark file is 15.8 mb in size. Do I need to split up this file and, if so, how would I do that?
Thanks!

If you still have the old computer, you could try backing up to .json (by using Backup instead of Export). With the new system, restore the .json file.

There is no "Organize Bookmarks" on my Bookmark tab and I don't know how to import html bookmarks from old computer, which is now dead, per the instructions.

I saved my old bookmarks as part of my regular backup from my old computer. It died this week and I just bought a new computer. The instructions for importing an html file with bookmarks says to open the Organized Bookmarks tab under Bookmarks. My computer does not have this bookmark and I can't find anywhere else how to import the html file with my old bookmarks. The old computer used Windows XP and this one has Windows 7.

"Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in the bookmarks menu. The rest of the instructions will be the same.

Just installed 7 pro, how can I import my bookmarks which I saved on a different drive?

just installed windows 7 pro. I saved my bookmarks on a second drive but can not find how to import into my new copy of firefox. Why is this not an option when I go to import? Only option is IE.

It depends on the format you saved the bookmarks in.
If it was an HTML file see [[importing bookmarks from an HTML file]]
If you used the JSON format to backup the bookmarks see [[backing up and restoring bookmarks]]. (Use the Restore - Choose file option)
If you saved the places.sqlite file, you can place that file in your new [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox profile folder], replacing the file that is already there. This will replace the bookmarks and history with those from your previous version.
