    Hi, all.

    I have my laptop (downstairs) and my desktop (upstairs) networked. I have a shed load of bookmarks on the laptop that I would like to transfer from the laptop to the desktop.

    I located the bookmarks folder on the laptop and copied it to the desktop computer. I then, opened up firefox on the desktop and selected the 'import' option to transfer the bookmarks. However, the option only allowed the transfer of Internet Explorer bookmarks.

    Is there any way to transfer the Firefox bookmarks from the laptop to the desktop? I could, of course, just do it the hard way and go to the sites and add afresh, but it's a bit of a pain!

    Thanks,

    David.

    You can synchronize your bookmarks with Foxmarks.
    You just need to Install Foxmarks on all computers, create an account, login with your account on all computers, and all changes to your bookmarks are updated on all computers :)
