How can I get my Firefox bookmarks to Chrome (or any other browser) on my Android phone?
What I have tried:
Imported them into Chrome on my Macbook. (which is supposed to sync with Google)
Log into Google website. Go to Bookmarks. Surprise! None there.

Downloaded something called "Google Bookmark" from Google Play.
Most of them show up but how to get into Chrome? (where does it get them anyway?)

No option in Chrome to import, otherwise wouldn't have this problem. (neither Firefox or Browser can either)

I use Xmarks. Surprise! No Xmarks for Mobile Chrome. (or Firefox)

I'm getting aggravated with this. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Oh **! someone edited something out :p

I may have found the problem"
I replied to your similar comment in another thread: Go to Settings/Account-Google, select your Google account, then make sure Chrome is checked.

From that link you gave. My Chrome wasn't checked. Is now but sync problem with phone right now. We'll see what happens.
Thanks

EDIT: Wonder why they're not showing up on Google web site? Or is that something different?

Nah, still got "Sync Problem. Sync will be back later" in Accounts on the phone.
Not worried about it anymore. Use the phone mostly as a phone anyway. Not that much web.
Guess I can uninstall 1password and Dropbox if I cant get it to work.
