I can't import my favorites from FF on Windows XP hard drive because it can't see the Favorites HTML file.
My old computer was windows XP and I had a second, larger hard drive with Ubuntu on it. My computer crashed because of the motherboard. I had both hard drives moved to a newer computer (motherboard from 2006) and computer could not boot to windows. It's now booted to the Ubuntu drive and I can access my old info on the windows XP drive. I would like to import my favorites from FF on my windows XP drive to my FF on my Ubuntu drive but "import data from another browser" doesn't find anything because it's looking on my Ubunto drive not my windows XP drive. I tried creating an HTML document of my favorites on the windows drive but when trying to import the HTML file of my favorites on Ubuntu, it can't see it...but Dolphin can see the HTML file I created.

Hi,
Usually distro-specific Firefox would be using the same file manager as the distro. The Ubuntu forum would have helpful info regarding any issues.
You can try to copy the HTML file to the Ubuntu partition and then Import Bookmarks from HTML via Firefox Bookmarks (Alt + B) > Show All Bookmarks > Import and Backup.
You can also try creating a new profile, start Firefox in it, click Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information > Show Folder, exit Firefox and copy/overwrite the other places.sqlite file into this. Start Firefox in the new profile again, check the bookmarks, Export Bookmarks to HTML via Bookmarks (Alt + B) > Show All Bookmarks > Import and Backup, start the other (old) profile and try to import.

Did you use Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML ?
Does the HTML backup have a .html file extension?
