How to Import the Bookmarks from Chrome to Firefox
From almost the two years I have been using Ubuntu. I have installed Google's chrome browser in Ubuntu and I mostly use this one for browsing. However, yesterday I was thinking how I can import the bookmarks from Chrome to the Firefox, which is the browser that comes pre-installed with Ubuntu...Then I devised the following simple way to do that which I would like to share with you...
You must be aware that we can do syncing of our own browsing data from Chrome. When we do syncing, one document called Bookmarks is created in the Google Chrome folder of My folders section of Google Docs of the synchronized Google account. Select that Bookmarks folder and go the More Action menu. At the bottom of that menu, there is a menu item called Export. Click that item and export and download the favorites as an HTML file.
Now open the Firefox browser and go to Organize Bookmarks under the Bookmarks menu. There click Import and Backup and import the HTML file you have just exported and downloaded from Chrome.
Voila.... All your Bookmarks will be imported to the Firefox browser....
