How can I share my bookmarks between Firefox and Chrome

Asked by John-abbott1936

I'm too invested in Google and attempting to move my bookmarks from Chrome to Firefox. I can export from Chrome in HTML, but cannot import them into Firefox. I'm open to any ideas.

In Firefox you can import bookmarks from HTML.

From Firefox, show all bookmarks. Hot key to do this is CTRL+SHIFT+O. On the Menu Bar select "Import and Backup". In the drop down menu select "import Bookmarks from HTML...". Then select the HTML file that you exported from Chrome.

Hope this helps

Thank you Wyatt. I keep forgetting the menu is out of sight in Ubuntu 12.04. That did it for me. Thanks for the reminder.
