I just got a new work laptop. I have exported passwords and bookmarks from FireFox on the old laptop. It seems I am unable to import these now. Any easy way to do this? I have over 624 passwords and no idea the number of bookmarks. Would be painful to have to do this manually. Help please Cheers Kelly
