I'm changing my default browser from Chrome back to Firefox, I want to import all my bookmarks. Actually I did do an import but all I got was a folder that is labeled "From Chrome". I want to import these as the default bookmarks (along with all the other data that can be imported).

I mean I want those bookmarks from Chrome to actually show up on the bookmark bar, and the bookmark tree, and not just in a folder. Or is there an easy way of moving everything around once they are imported?


Thanks Robby

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Hi

Welcome back to Firefox!

You should be able to easily move the bookmarks from that folder into your other bookmark folders using the tools within Firefox. I recommend having a read of this article that should give you a few pointers.

I hope this helps, but if not please come back ere and we can look into a different solution for you.

To open the Bookmarks Manager, press the Alt or F10 key bring up the tool bar, 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,
