Software :: How To Get Firefox Bookmarks Into Safari 4
Jun 16, 2009
like many others I've been using FireFox the past year, but now I want to migrate back to Safari 4. With all my bookmarks that are now in Firefox, of course! Safari 4 has got an import feature. But what kind of file does it want? In any case I haven't a clue how to export my bookmarks from FireFox into any particular file. Do you?
The only thing I could think of to do was go into FF's Bookmarks edit mode and copy/paste the bookmarks menu into an .rtf and an .html file. But that bombed: Safari 4's import wanted neither.
Newbie question here, is there anyway that I pages I bookmark in Safari can be also bookmarked in Firefox on the same mac? Or is there an easy way to transfer/synch them? At times I use Safari and at other times I use FF.
My existing Firefox software is corrupt and I am unable to get my bookmarks from my Time Machine. I either need to find out how to get them out of my Time Machine or import them into Safari.
safari has problems with banking sites, IE and Firefox work OK - so if I wish to work in Firefox 1.4 in future how do I transfer my extensive bookmarks from safari please? Working in 10.3.9 now.
I sync my Safari bookmarks between machines via MobileMe. Works pretty well. But I was wondering - is there a way I can make FireFox use my Safari bookmarks, so that they benefit from the sync as well?
I have been using firefox for years now and would like to sync up my bookmarks to my ipad and iphone. I have a Mac Pro, MBP, Iphone an Ipad. I know you can sync to firefox, but I don't have firefox on IOS. First is there an IOS app for phone and ipad. Second, can I push this data through icloud to go from firefox on my mac pro to safari on iphone and ipad?Â

I have edited renamed moved the bookmarks from bookmarks bar without a problem until I quite safari. Once I reopen safari all changes I made disappear and it reverts back to original with all bookmarks on bookmarks bar. what am I doing wrong that i cannot make permanent changes to my bookmark bar on Safari 5.1.3?
After my recovery drive went missing and trying to reinstall it, had to do a format of my hard drive and reinstall everything once I got OS X reinstalled and up-to-date, I tried to import my bookmarks from a backup bookmarks file, when I quit safari and re-open safari bookmarks were missing and default ones back in place. When searching though the forums for how to fix this problem but too know unluck they did not work.
I use Xmarks to sync my bookmarks from FF to Safari, but on Safari, the bookmark bar shows the number of link inside a Folder/Dropdown, is there a way to hide that ?
I can't right click my bookmarks, especially RSS feeds that appear as a drop-down menu (on the toolbar). I tried to right click on one RSS feed so I can open it in a new tab but there's no right click menu.
How do I backup my bookmarks from Firefox on my desktop gaming pc? I want to be able to transfer them to Firefox on OSX, and then bootcamp with XP Pro 64bit to. I just don't know how to save them, I know how to in IE though. Have to find a hidden folder? Last time I reformatted, I saved the entire firefox folder. But that didn't help when I reformatted, so that let me to thinking it was a hidden folder.
I made a clone of my HDD before doing a clean install of the 10.6.3. I am trying to locate the bookmarks.html in the cloned HDD to restore the bookmarks to Firefox, but no luck. Does anyone know where exactly the bookmarks are stored for firefox?
I'm using Firefox 3 with Mac OSX Leopard. Whenever I bookmark a page, the correct information is in the proper forms. When I click on a bookmark, however, it redirects me to a random page taken from my recent activity. How do I keep the bookmarks from changing once I create them?
I just updated my mozilla firefox to the new version and it deleted all of my bookmarks. I didn't think it was a big deal because I could just re add them. When I restarted the application after re adding all of them they just deleted again. I deleted firefox and re downloaded it but it still keeps deleting my bookmarks when I restart it.
