I bought a new computer with Win 7. My old computer was with XP. I use Firefox and had lots of bookmarks on the XP version. How can I export the bookmarks from my XP and import them to my Win 7 version of Firefox?
MozBackup allows you to transfer all (bookmarks, mail, contacts, history, extensions, passwords, cache etc.) of your FF settings.
I just transitioned to 7 and I don’t think its a Windows issue but a browser one. When I had Vista on this machine, I used Chrome and it had a bookmarks button. Now, upon installing 7, I reinstalled Chrome and there is no way to put a bookmarks button onto the address bar (I believe because its a later version that what I had).
The internet fix I found (right clicking “properties” on the Chrome desktop icon and adding --bookmark-menu after the .exe in the file name) doesn’t work for me.
It bums me out. I don’t like the extra toolbar hogging precious screen real estate that has buttons for my “most visited” sites…I want a button with a drop-down menu like I used to have, dammit!
Anyone know how (for Chrome)?
Check out the Neat Bookmarks extension.
Oh, God bless you, this is exactly what I wanted! Thanks!
I think I made a little mistake. I imported them twice, so now I have 2 lists of my bookmarks. How can I uninstall half of the list?:smack:
Maybe sort them by date and delete the second batch?
Delete them all, and import again, only once this time.
Yay, the thread I wanted!
My hard drive crashed, so I put in a new one and re-installed windows. I can still read the old hard drive, but not boot from it.
- Windows repair on the old drive would be nice to know how to do.
- In the meantime, I don’t even know how to find the bookmarks on the old drive. In which file are they?
Thanks, 'dope!
I can only delete them one item at a time. So, that is what I am going to do. I do have a lot of bookmarks to delete.:mad:
Well, I finished deleting all of the 2nd set of bookmarks, one at a time.:eek:
