I have a home computer with FireFox on it where I have all of my bookmarks selected. I got another computer and I need directions on how to transfer the bookmarks form one PC to the other via jump drive.

Chosen solution

You can transfer with a jump drive is you wish. The file you need to copy from your old profile to your new profile is places.sqlite which contains your History and Bookmarks. Copy only certains files; do not copy the entire profile. There are other items that you can copy from your old profile to your new profile, if you need to do so.

tried Firefox Sync? It's awesome! Switch computers & it saves open tabs, pwords, history. Try it http://mzl.la/aHHUYA
