How do I get firefox book marks into a new computer?
I got the right folder following instructions from [livejournal.com profile] rinkle from ages ago.

Documents and settings -> your folder ->Application Data (may be a hidden folder and you'll have to turn seeing hidden folders on) ->mozilla -> firefox ->profiles -> the folders underneath...

My question is, which folder do I need to copy and where do I copy it to? Or do I copy the whole profile?

Please help. Family crises are happening and I'm apparently the computer expert meant to fix it all. Ahhhhhh! :(

Open up Firefox, go to Bookmark, Organise Bookmarks. There's this option there to Export HTML. Do that, and a new html file of all your bookmarks will be created. Copy that file to the new computer. Open Firefox, follow the step above, and the last step, select Import HTML, and select that html file you created, and viola!

At least that's how I do it on my computers...

I just moved my whole profile over to a new computer using that path and it worked great! All my bookmarks and passwords and everything work just like before.

Cool! \o/
My Dad just got a new computer and he was setting it up, which is code for him yelling my name out every 2 seconds so I'd set the next thing up for him.... at least he made me mugs of tea. :P
