Using Firefox 3.6.28 on a PowerMac G4 with OSX 10.4. I have a bookmark.htm file exported from Windows Internet Explorer 8. When I open "Import" in Firefox, the only import options are "Opera" and "Safari". How can I get these IE favorites into my mac Firefox?

You can import an HTML bookmarks backup in the Library.

  • Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML : "From File"
