[FireFox] Can This Be Done?Novice here.
Can I backup only specific Favorites/Bookmarks folders (not all Bookmarks) to move to another pc?
If so, How do I do this?
Thanks |

Export the bookmarks to an HTML file and edit that file to remove unwanted bookmarks. Restore as needed. Note: Difference between restoring and importing bookmarks » kb.mozillazine.org/Backi ··· _Firefox |

ok, a few questions
1) when I export bookmarks to HTML, it does not include Bookmark Folder on Toolbar. How do I include this?
2) before I import to another pc ( only want a few folders), do I change html to a txt & delete what's not wanted & then revert back to html?
3)then on 2nd pc, just IMPORT and it will be added to bookmarks?
4) what if there are dupe folders?
5) found that after I import, the data on the original export file is gone, wierd |

Just go and get Mozilla Backup and then you can selectively back up and restore everything. Mozilla Backup has been my friend for years. |

Consider Febe, I have been using it for years and used to to move settings over to new machines. » addons.mozilla.org/en-US ··· /?src=ssIn options select backup bookmarks .html I do a selective and full backup. |
