Unable to find "Organize Bookmarks" to export them to a HTML file
1. I am using Firefox 4.0.1.
2. I believe the installation is corrupted and wish to reinstall Firefox.
3. Despite what the Help Page states, I am unable to find the "Organise Favourites" option under the Bookmarks tab at the top of the page.
4. The only options available are "Bookmark this page", "Subscribe to this page" (greyed out), "Show all Bookmarks", "Bookmarks toolbar", "Recent Tags" and "Get Bookmark Add-ons".
Please inform me how I may expost my bookmarks to a HTML page so that I may re-import them after I re-install Firefox.
"Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in the bookmarks menu.

My old PC died and I replaced it with a MacBook Pro. Although I was able to copy the data from the PC's hard drive, I am unable to export my previous bookmarks/favorites to an html file because that PC won't boot. Is there any other way to import them into Safari using the raw data stored on that drive or convert them somehow to a format I can import?
You can only use a JSON backup to restore all bookmarks in Firefox.<br />
If you need to import Firefox bookmarks in Safari then you need to (re)install Firefox and export the bookmarks to an HTML file.

Updated to Mac OS X to be 10.6.8 & Safari DOA , downloaded Firefox 5 which auto imported all Safari bookmarks. I want to export from FF5, no find "Organize Bookmarks" command.
In my Library/Internet Plug-ins folder I have a file named Flash Player.plugin (it's 22.8 MB however, not 23.9mb) and another named flashplayer.xpt (it's 4 KB however, not856 bytes).
I am unable to open the Plug-Ins menu (the browser pops up but wont load)...is there another way to check for Shockwave Flash?? When I do a search for "Shockwave" on my hard drive I do find a plug-in named "DirectorShockwave.plugin" (76 KB)
Also...The "Open using Rosetta" checkbox was already unchecked -
download doesn't work; i keep getting "unable to find firefox.exe" even when I open from program files folder; working onwindows xp with service pack 3
As you can see below, when I right click, I have no such option. In the User Account Settings, I'm operating as the "System Administrator".
Any other suggestions? -

As stated above
As you already guessed:
*"Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in Firefox 4 and later.
What do you see when you open that window?

I am running Firefox 6 but cannot find "Organize Bookmarks" under the "Bookmarks" tab.
I am trying to export my bookmarks to Internet Explorer and the Help program says I should have "Organize Bookmarks" as a choice.
"Organize Bookmarks was renamed to Show All Bookmarks in Firefox 4+ versions."
Should be real simple to change it back or change it to something meaningful ;)
No way would I have realized this w/o reading this post. What happened to intuitively user friendly Firefox ?
I prefer it the old way. -
Many sites require me to set up an account, and all have differing requirements for user names and passwords. In the old Firefox, in the Organize Bookmarks section, when you look at any bookmarked site, there was a place at the bottom (More...) where you could write notes to yourself. I used this space to write down my username and password for that site. Since I only visit some sites annually (to renew membership, etc or pay annual dues) I can't remember the passwords or user names. PLEASE tell me I haven't lost all that information! If I've lost all those passwords and user IDs I'm royally screwed! Thanks
Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

using XP professional, have hundreds of Favorites in IE 8. I can not get them over into Firefox either directly from the Bookmarks Manager (show all bookmarks/import and backup/Import data from another browser OR by exporting the Favorites in IE 8 to a html file (did) and then coming back over to Firefox Bookmarks and using the Bookmarks/show all bookmarks/import and backup/import bookmarks from html file. I find the file, double click it open BUT nothing happens in the Bookmarks Library???
It is not a case on some come over - nothing happens??Did you try a search in the Bookmarks Manager (Library) for some know bookmarks?

I've been having problems with my computer, and had to delete Firefox entirely several times. I don't believe it was your browser that was the problem, though now I have lost all my saved bookmarks. I did export them to IE as an HTML file, which I still have on my desktop. I am now in the painful process of remembering and resetting passwords that Firefox remembered when I had it originally installed (I am back at ground zero with the browser now).
Please read this article about restoring bookmarks:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Lost_bookmarks
As far as your passwords are concerned, I don't think there's anything you can do. But for the future, you can use the following add-ons to avoid any future loss:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2848/
or
http://www.xmarks.com/
Both are good.
And a simple way to import your bookmarks (since you already saved it on your desktop as html) is:
Bookmarks / Organized Bookmarks / Import and Export
Good luck. -
computer was infected by virus rebuilt after save but bookmark favorites saved as html files in folders not bookmark format
Yes, I tried that. The files were ordered by their original numbers as imported from the camera, but I batched them through Phocoshop to downsize all of them into a more manageable file size. I opened that destination folder from quick time from where it said select image sequence. I clicked on the first one and opened it. The result was a large image with an arrow indicating a movie was ready to go. When I pressed the arrow, though, I realized it had only imported that one frame so there was no movie. The files are Jpgs and are about 450 KB each.
To your knowledge are there any links to iMovie tutorials or quick time tutorials that may address this situation? Maybe there will be one I haven't looked at yet.

I want to save my Bookmarks, but unable to find either Import or Export options, Kindly help
In Earlier version Firefox use to have Import & Export options under File menu, but in the new version 7.0.1, I cannot find Import & Export options, as I was trying to save my Bookmarks. Kindly help.
Thanks & Regards,
Subodh.Hi Subodh. I have encountered the exact same problem. It seems that the Import & Export options under the File menu are now removed starting from version 7. This leaves another exact (yet longer) way to do this.
Here's the article that explains everything: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Importing%20bookmarks%20and%20other%20data%20from%20other%20browsers?s=import+bookmarks&r=0&as=s -
I can't organize or add to my files. I just got a new computer and wanted to save old Firefox bookmarks. As above, when I drop down my menu of bookmarks and files, all the ones I imported are there. However, when I try to bookmark a new website and try to "choose" a place to organize it, none of my past bookmarks and files for organizing bookmarks show up. Help!
Hi,
You can try deleting the '''places.sqlite''' file which stores the bookmarks + history, in your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder Firefox Profile Folder] after exiting Firefox. You can also open the profile folder via Firefox '''Help''' ('''Alt '''+ '''H''') > '''Troubleshooting Information''' > '''Open Containing Folder'''. The file will be recreated at the next Firefox startup. You can restore the bookmarks from a backup or via '''Bookmarks''' ('''Alt''' + '''B''') >''' Show All Bookmarks''' > '''Import and Backup''' > '''Restore'''. From here you can also '''Export Bookmarks to HTML''' and later '''Import Bookmarks from HTML'''.

At the top of the page, between the address of the page I'm on and the tabs that are open is a line that starts with "Most Visited" and also includes Amazon, aBay, Yahoo, etc., all of which I want to keep. But there are also a number of other links that I don't want but can't find a way to delete. I've looked at suggestions til my eyes bugged out of my head, but nothing I've found allows me to get rid of them. Only one of them is something I saved, but it is no longer usable.
The mouse that came with my Mac does not have a right click feature. When I try to highlight and click, it just opens the link I don't want anymore. What I want to do is remove unwanted links from the top bar. For example, I no longer use GoodSearch or myEarthLink, but I can't delete them. There are also some links that never should have found their way up there, and I don't know how they ended up there, and I can't remove them either. I've read through a ton of questions and answers, and I can't find one that addresses the problem. With my Safari browser, all I have to do to remove an unwanted link is to click and drag it to the trash. It doesn't appear to work that way with Firefox, to my chagrin. I hope this better explains my question. Maybe that will give you a better insight into a solution.

How can I save my bookmarks, and email them?
I would like to save my bookmarks, and email them to one of my Gmail accounts. This way I can download them into another computer.
How do I do this?A couple of methods.
If you want the bookmarks on the other computer to be replaced with the bookmarks on your current computer, follow the procedure in the [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]] article to backup the bookmarks to a json file which you can email, and then restore those onto the other computer.
If you want to add the bookmarks to the other computer, but still keep the bookmarks that are already on the other computer, you need to export them to an html file. To do that see [[Exporting bookmarks to an HTML file]]. You can email the html file, and import it to the other computer, for details see [[Importing Bookmarks from an HTML File]].
