I have been running firefox on my macbook air for years. I just recently upgraded my O.S. to Catalina. I did this primarily because my old firefox would no longer update. I did the upgrade to Catalina then downloaded "new" firefox. I have both "versions" of firefox available. the old one with all my bookmarks etc. and the new one with nothing. I hit move bookmarks on the new version but the only options were from chrome or safari. How can I move over the bookmarks to the new one. Thanks

Hi ricko388, Kindly specify what do you mean by "move" bookmarks on the new version.

If you mean import bookmarks from old firefox... You can go here with new firefox version as long as you have exported the bookmarks from old firefox.

Old firefox version 1) Right click top right menu icon 2) Bookmarks > Manage bookmarks 3) Import and Backup > "Export Bookmarks to HTML..."

New firefox version 1) Right click top right menu icon 2) Bookmarks > Manage bookmarks 3) Import and Backup 4) Import Bookmarks from HTML [the file you have just imported from old firefox version]
