Does anyone know how to copy your Firefox bookmarks from one computer to another? With IE I could just copy the Favorites folder from one computer to the other. But I can't seem to find the Firefox "Bookmarks" folder... Thanks.

I'd like to synchronize some of my bookmarks between home and work, but not all of them.... You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

I'd like to synchronize some of my bookmarks between home and work, but not all of them.... The above link shows how to import, export, but if you want to partially synchronize, your better off doing that using the "Organize Bookmarks" option in the Bookmark menu dropdown , get one it like you want, then copy it to the other machine. Firefox at least does not have a way to synchronize between two different instances. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

It's a horrible dic. I have tried several alternate .dic files but FF refuses to see them. Not sure why, but call me JJ.
