Import favorites from IE

How do you export favorites on IE on a PC to a file to a flash drive which can then be imported into Safari on a Macbook Pro (I'm switching from being a PC user to being a mac user)

Try doing it this way.
In IE: <br />
File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file
''then in Firefox:'' <br />
Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks -> Import & Backup - Import HTML... = From HTML file

  • I have followed instructions for importing favorites from Internet Explorer, but they do not show up in Bookmarks menu as shown in the support instructions.

    I just downloaded Firefox 3.6 and followed the instructions for importing Favorites from Internet Explorer. Firefox said the import was successful, but the Favorites do not appear at the bottom of the Bookmarks menu (below "Mozilla Firefox") as shown in the Support instructions. Where can I access my Favorites?

    You can usually find the imported IE Favorites in a folder ("From Internet Explorer") at the bottom of the Bookmarks Menu folder (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks).<br />
    If you can't find them in the "From Internet Explorer" folder then try this:
    * Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html): File > Import and Export
    * Import the HTML file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File

    You can use the following link to export the AOL favorites to an HTML file, you can then import that HTML file into Firefox.

  • If I import favorites from IE, does that totally remove them from IE?

    If I import favorites from IE, does that totally remove them from IE?

    I'm quite sure that importing favorites will not delete the originals because it is only "copying" them.
    Hope that helps.

  • When I go through the 'import favorites' from Internet Explorer, everything seems to progress correctly. However, when I click on Bokkmarks, there is no option in the menu for accessing the imported items form EI. Is there a fix for this?

    When I go through the 'import favorites' from Internet Explorer, everything seems to progress correctly. However, when I click on Bokkmarks, there is no option in the menu for accessing the imported items form EI. Why would this option be missing and is there a fix for this?

    Hello Nigel.
    Are you sure the Bookmarks you important are nowhere to be found? They should be stored in your bookmark manager, somewhere. To access the bookmark manager, go into ''Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks...''. Try searching there.
    You can change their place from there too.

  • Why cant i import favorites from 3.6 to 4.0 firefox

    saved favorites to flash drive from 3.6 firefox , just downloaded 4.0 ,tried to restore favorites from flash drive to 4.0 it will not work?

    Provided you saved your bookmarks in HTML format, there shouldn't be a problem. See [[Importing Bookmarks from an HTML File]]
    Try moving the file to your hard drive first if necessary.
    How did you update though? Via '''Help '''| '''Check For Updates''', or did you download the file from [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0]?
    If you did the latter, did you uninstall the previous version via Add/Remove Programs first? That also gives you the option to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc. You also need to delete the Mozilla Firefox folder at this location before updating: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox

  • Can't import favorites from IE8. Any suggestions

    Question speaks for itself. I hit the alt f but the import button is greyed out. Thank you.

    If there are problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
    If you do not have the menu bar in IE then right-click the toolbar at the top to enable the Menu Bar.
