I exported bookmarks from my old computer. Now I can't import them. When I follow these directions, I don't see the Library page with the import/export option.

Happy: Thank you! It took some trying, but I got them imported. But it didn't copy all of my bookmarks and I double imported. How do I clean up a bookmark list? and some of them aren't linking to a url?

Hi,

The fastest way is to press Ctrl + Shift + B, which will take you to the Library.

There you will see (upper left side) : 'Import and Backup' .....
