How To Download Your Bookmarks From Firefox __EXCLUSIVE_

Your bookmarks are associated with the Firefox profile you are using. There may be instances when you or Firefox creates a new profile containing the default set of bookmarks (for example, if you make a separate installation of Firefox or when you downgrade Firefox). A new profile may give you the impression that you have lost your bookmarks.

To see if another profile exists, type about:profiles into the Firefox address bar and press the EnterReturn key. This will open the About Profiles page, which will list at least one profile and could list many. The profile that Firefox is currently using will show: This is the profile in use and it cannot be deleted. If you have another profile listed, you can launch that profile in a new Firefox browser window to see if it contains your lost bookmarks. See Recover user data missing after Firefox update for more information.

If you were using the Bookmarks Toolbar for quick access to your favorite bookmarks and the toolbar is now missing, you may have turned off the option to display the Bookmarks Toolbar. To turn it back on:

You can view all of your bookmarks and folders when you click the Bookmarks menu item in the Firefox Menu bar, if you enable the Menu bar. You can also add a Bookmarks menu button to your Firefox toolbar.

Firefox automatically backs up your bookmarks and saves up to 15 backups in the profile bookmarkbackups folder. To recover bookmarks that were previously saved in the Bookmarks menu or on the Bookmarks toolbar but are now missing, you can restore them from one of these backups:

In some cases, Firefox may create a folder on your desktop called "Old Firefox Data". This folder contains a complete backup of your Firefox profile and can be used to restore bookmarks and other missing information. If you have this folder on your desktop, see Recovering important data from an old profile.

If you have restarted Firefox after installing an add-on and your bookmarks are gone, it's possible that Firefox did not close properly before restarting itself. To recover your bookmarks, restart your computer.

If you imported your bookmarks from another browser, you can find them inside a specially-named folder, for example, From Google Chrome or From Microsoft Edge depending on the browser, in one of these locations:

If your source bookmarks were stored in a hierarchy of folders, the folder structure is preserved inside the specially-named folder. If desired, you can move your imported bookmarks to other folders. See Bookmarks in Firefox to learn more about organizing your bookmarks.

Bookmarks (called Favorites in Microsoft Edge) are links you save to web pages that make it easy to get back to your favorite places. This article covers the basics of making and managing Firefox bookmarks.

You will see an Other Bookmarks folder icon at the end of the Bookmarks toolbar if the Other Bookmarks folder in your Library contains any bookmarks. This makes it easier to find bookmarks stored in that folder. To remove the Other Bookmarks folder icon from the Bookmarks toolbar, see Remove the Other Bookmarks folder from the Bookmarks Toolbar.

Firefox lets you import bookmarks from other browsers installed on your computer. It also lets you import other data, such as browsing history and saved passwords, from some of these browsers. To learn more, see Import data from another browser.

Bookmarks are a fantastic way to keep track of all your favorite websites in Firefox. The Firefox browser allows you to add, edit, and modify bookmarks however you see fit. They also offer a great tool that allows you to export bookmarks in Firefox.

Do you want to export your Firefox bookmarks so you can import them to another web browser? These bookmarks can be exported as an HTML file, which can then be used as a backup or imported to another web browser. This wikiHow teaches you how to save a copy of your Firefox browser's bookmarks onto your Windows or Mac computer. Keep in mind that you cannot use the Firefox mobile app to export bookmarks.

There is unfortunately no way to get rid of the bar unless you import your bookmarks. It will always appear on the new tab page, but if you press CTRL+Shift+B it will get rid of it on every other tab, as the checks/unchecks the "Always show bookmarks bar" button in settings.

This is quite annoying. That message is part of Chromium's "New Tab" page (which looks like google.com, but it's not). The New Tab page your bookmarks as part of the webpage, even if you uncheck Show Bookmarks. And if you don't have any bookmarks, then it will show the "For quick access, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks bar" message instead.

The Send Tab feature in Firefox lets you send pages from Firefox on one device to other devices (such as an iPhone, iPad or Android device). Did you find an article while browsing on your phone that you want to read when you get back to your desk? Or an important document from work that you want to save when you get home? Maybe you found a recipe on your laptop that you want to send to your tablet in the kitchen. Send that tab!

Seriously, how is this not even a basic feature? On mobile, your interaction is limited to touches and the lesser clicks/taps one needs, the better is the user experience. Safari for iOS and Samsung Internet for Android have a pretty awesome "quick access" homepage that let you open a bookmark with just 1 or 2 taps. And then voila, you are busy browsing. On the other hand, opening something as simple as a bookmark takes multiple clicks and hoops. With this kind of user experience, who the hell would want to use Firefox on Android anyway? Well, let me guess: someone who has bookmarks synced. And... I can't think of any other reasons.

HOWEVER, I just don't like the homepage as it is. I have a couple of bookmarks that I have to find quickly - I'm using them as online apps, basically - and they get mixed in with lots of links from the history. I only bookmarked very few pages not to have to wade through menus to find them, and I get history items bogging me down? It's unfriendly. I don't want any history in my homepage. I only want the few bookmarks I need. There is no option to have only bookmarks in the homepage. Could we please have that?

Secondary questions: I see \%user profile%\application data\mozilla\firefox\profiles\bookmarkbackups\bookmarks-[date].json files -- can I just parse that? If so, are there any existing parsers for that?

Whether you're looking to make a backup of your bookmarks, or you want to import your bookmarks in another web browser, you will want to export your Mozilla Firefox bookmarks first. We'll show you how to do just that.

Firefox has a built-in option to help you export your bookmarks. It creates an HTML file containing all your bookmarks, and you can then import this file back into Firefox or another compatible browser. You can also view this HTML file in a web browser, as it's human-friendly.

Note: In Firefox 3, imported bookmarks are added to the end of your Bookmarks Menu. This means, for instance, that bookmarks from exported Firefox 3 bookmarks will have the imported bookmark folders (Bookmarks Toolbar, Bookmarks Menu, and Unsorted Bookmarks) added to the end of the existing Bookmarks Menu and you will have to check the nesting and move wanted imported bookmarks where you want them and remove any unwanted folders and bookmarks left over from the import. To restore your Firefox 3 bookmarks to a state before the import you can use the "Import and Backup -> Restore" option in the Library window and select an available backup.

Firefox includes an Import Wizard that can be accessed via "File -> Import". You can use the Firefox Import Wizard to automatically import bookmarks and other data from installed browsers such as Internet Explorer, Opera, and Netscape 6-7-Mozilla Suite (which includes SeaMonkey 1.x). Only use the following instructions in Firefox if the Import Wizard doesn't work.

Note: If you use Firefox 3.5 or newer in Private Browsing mode then the "File -> Import" item is grayed and not available.

Go to the "Convert bookmark file" web page at =msn&outformat=netscape to convert the MSN Explorer file "favorites.xml" (input format) into a "Netscape (also Mozilla and Firefox)" HTML file (output format) . (If you have problems locating the "favorites.xml" file on your computer, read the "MSN Explorer users" section of the web page and this article.) After converting, use "File -> Save Page as" to save the output. You can then import the HTML file you just saved into your Mozilla browser using the "Import from file" feature of the Bookmarks Manager (see above). You can alternately try the MSN Favorites Export Toolkit, available from to convert the MSN Explorer file (favorites.xml) into a Netscape bookmarks file (bookmark.htm) which you can then import into your Mozilla browser (details here).

Use the "Import from file" feature of the Mozilla Suite/SeaMonkey or Firefox Bookmarks Manager as explained above, to import the "bookmarks.html" file from the Netscape Navigator 9 profile folder. On Windows 2000/XP, the profile folder is located here:

Use the "Import from file" feature of the Mozilla Suite/SeaMonkey or Firefox Bookmarks Manager (explained above) to import the "bookmarks.html" file from the Netscape 8 profile folder. On Windows 2000/XP, the Netscape 8 profile folder is located here:

If Firefox Import Wizard doesn't work, you can use a third-party bookmarks manager like Bookmark Converter (alternate link) to import your Opera bookmarks and export them back out as a HTML file. You can then import the bookmarks HTML file into Firefox or Mozilla Suite by using the Import feature of the Bookmarks Manager, as explained above.

Firefox imports Safari settings automatically. Just go to File > Import... and select Safari. In the next window, check the boxes of what you want to import. For example, your Safari Bookmarks will appear in Firefox's Bookmarks menu as "From Safari." Whatever other bookmarks you had on your Safari Bookmarks Bar will automatically appear on your Firefox Bookmarks Bar, too. 006ab0faaa
