My older PC has Firefox on it with Windows XP. My new PC also has Firefox with Windows 7. How do I transfer the information on all the tabs on the old PC to the new PC?

When you say "tabs" do you mean your Bookmarks?

For best results:

(1) On your old computer, export your bookmarks to an HTML file. This article describes the steps for Firefox 3.5-3.6: Exporting bookmarks to an HTML file | How to | Firefox Help.

For Firefox 4-5, "Organize Bookmarks" changed to "Show All Bookmarks", and on the Firefox menu (orange button) you just click Bookmarks.

(2) On your new computer, import that HTML file. This article describes the steps for Firefox 5 (note the item on the Bookmarks menu was renamed "Show All Bookmarks", and on the Firefox menu (orange button) you just click Bookmarks): Importing Bookmarks from an HTML File | How to | Firefox Help.

Does it work?
