I have a Notebook and Desktop PC. I want to combine the bookmarks from each computer to cleanup folders and have the bookmarks I use most often available on both computers. It was possible at some time many versions ago to edit each file, but that does not seem possible now. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

These instructions are for Firefox. These instructions will combine the new bookmarks with the old.

Open the Bookmarks Manager; Press the Alt or F10 key to bring up the toolbar, and select Bookmarks. Hot key is <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> B.

Once the window is open, at the top of the page, press the button labeled Import and Backup. Select Export Bookmarks To HTML, and follow the prompts and save it to a HTML file. Copy the file to another computer. Repeat the instructions above, BUT select Import Bookmarks From HTML.
