Can cookies be imported into Firefox directly from an IE ".txt" file? (The IE "Favorites" bookmark file came in fine.)

I'm setting up a new Linux machine and don't have/want IE on it, so the ability to import data from another browser isn't much help.

If that doesn't work, you can use the Cookie Importer to import cookies.txt into Firefox

I don't know if this method is supported anymore but you can give it a try. If you backed up bookmarks in IE using the following directions, you should be good!

  • In IE, "File -> Import and Export -> Export Cookies".
  • Open newly exported "cookies.txt" in a text editor and put a period before every line that starts with a domain. So a line starting with altavista.com TRUE / FALSE 1388491200 AV_ALL 1 will become .altavista.com TRUE / FALSE 1388491200 AV_ALL 1
  • Then, move the "cookies.txt" file to your profile folder.

You can get to the Profile folder two ways

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory > Show Folder

or

  • Go to about:support and click Show Folder next to Profile Directory.
