Advanced URL Catalog - Bookmark manager

You can use this bookmark manager to export your bookmarks from Firefox into any browser or file. I use Advanced URL Catalog to move my bookmarks from Firefox into Opera.

Hi, tried to do this, but don't have the manage bookmarks option. Any ideas on how to do this now?

Thanks

Are you still trying to go Safari > Firefox? If so, you don't need to export your bookmarks from Safari. In Firefox, go to File > Import... and follow the prompts.

Yeah, Same! I have firefox 3 and that is why we don't have it! can anyone help please?

The Avanti Blog.

In Firefox 3 you go to the Bookmarks menu and select "Organize Bookmarks". This brings up the "Library" window.

In the left-hand column, make sure "All Bookmarks" is highlighted.

There are five buttons on the upper left: left arrow, right arrow, gear, lines, and a box in a star; select the box in a star button. That will pull down a menu. Select the last item in that menu: "Export HTML".

That will export your bookmarks as an HTML file; you can name it whatever you want and save it wherever you want. You can then import that to your new browser.

Good luck!
