Transferring Mozilla favourites and cookies to another computer

barginboyrob

Hi, i have a new computer which does not have internet access yet. is it possible to transfer the cookies and favourites of mozilla to my gmail address and pick it up again when i gain internet access at university?

Thanks

For the bookmarks, have a look in

C:\Documents and Settings\<% Account Name %>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\

There may be a number of folders inside the Profiles directory, depending how many profiles you have setup in Mozilla. I just have the one.

Inside that folder there is a file, bookmarks.html. That contains all of your bookmarks, and is the file you'll need to send across, and then import to Mozilla at the other end.

Alternatively, rather than the steps above, click Start > Search, and type in "bookmarks.html".

you can also do that from within firefox:

Bookmarks -> Manage Bookmarks

then

File -> Export

There's an extension that will backup cookies, favourites, password etc every day if you so wish
