firefox bookmarks

[two slow]

I'm trying to get the bookmarks saved from my dead laptop. I cant seem to find them. Anyone know where they are stored?

[Err]

In XP: c:\Documents and Settings\[your XP user name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

I believe they are stored as an html file.

For Vista and 7, they should be here: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\profilename\bookmarks.html

if your interested there is an add on called xmarks it stores your bookmarks in an online account and if running multiple computers adds or deletes bookmarks on all machines if you change them. just a quick FREE account sign up and your in business.

this is the primary reason i use the google toolbar...for the bookmarks feature.

Personally I use a program called MozBackup as it will save everything that I have put / saved on Firefox to a file and then I can just load the program onto another puter and restore that saved file and I then have an exact copy of my original Firefox; all addons, bookmarks, changes, etc. etc.

Very nice program imo.

You can also just copy the entire profile folder which will bring everything over (bookmarks, addons, passwords, history, etc):

For XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\%User name%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

For Vista, Win7:
C:\Users\%User name%\AppData\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

Thanks it worked. Would you be able to use the profiles folder from vista to XP?

[FlyingPenguin]

Yes. The profiles folder is OS independent, you just need to put it in the proper place depending on the OS.
