Erm, I am a real technophobe, so will apologise now for asking stupid questions, with not very good tech talk…..

I have to send my Mac away for repair and have my daughters windows laptop to use.

Is there any way that I can easily transfer my Firefox profile and bookmarks, from the Mac to the windows laptop?

If you are brave enough to answer, I will need step by step instructions, LOL

Unless it has sync setup there is no way to get that information other then having the physical computer and backup that data following Firefox FAQ on how to backup the bookmark and data.

Firefox FAQ already have instructions there is no need to post instructions for Firefox FAQ other then to give you the links to read and follow.
