Greetings...

I have four rows of "shortcuts" that appear on my Firefox Home Page - 32 individual URLs that I customarily access virtually daily.

Q: Is there some way that I could export/backup my Firefox Home Page and all of these "shortcuts"? I would not want to lose any of the URLs that are represented by the 32 "shortcuts".

Please advise. Thank you! Take care...

If I go to the profile folder, exit firefox then copy and paste the folder to a backup location. The attempted backup fails. Something about permissions as I recall. I have tried many things unsuccessfully. Something has changed that does not allow for the backup of profile folders. Adding a backup option to the profile manager would be nice. I noticed some people have found work-arounds but I need a straight-forward procedure for backing up my folders. No work-arounds please, just a simple procedure. May I ask for help with this issue?

Looking to export my saved passwords from Firefox for Android (Current Version) to CSV file or directly to Bitwarden Password Manager. Can you please explain how to do This if it's possible?

Hello,

I think it would be useful if bookmarks are always saved in a user-defined default folder rather than saving them in the folder last used. I don't always remember what folder I've used last so the bookmarks end up somewhere I cannot find them. There might be cases I would find this useful, but I think providing an option to search the list of bookmark folders, to select multiple bookmarks and move them to a different folder might be more useful to get the same result.

Kind regards

I had to re-install Windows and so I downloaded Firefox again and logged in to my account. I had sync turned on with bookmarks enabled but it wasn't syncing my bookmarks to my computer. I double checked that these sync settings were enabled on the Firefox app on my phone and I tried syncing multiple times. It transferred my passwords and other data but not my bookmarks. So I logged out of Firefox on my computer and phone, then logged back in and synced them together only to find that Firefox deleted all my bookmarks from my account completely (now they don't show up on my phone either). I looked at the forums and saw that they make separate profiles that I could access with about:profiles so I opened that and only saw 2 profiles, neither of which have my bookmarks. Is there a way to recover these since Firefox deleted them out of no where?

My windows10 laptop was destroyed, but I was able to retrieve the hard drive with all data in tack. I am currently using a new laptop loaded with Windows 11. I've been trying to find the bookmarks on my old hard drive to copy on a usb to reload on my new laptop with no success. HELP

When I open the Manage Bookmarks --> Import Bookmarks --> Browse I have no listed backups, even though I can see them in File Manager \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\c4i4a2zg.default\bookmarkbackups folder. I have copied the JSON file from my laptop which has not lost them but cannot select a folder/file location to import them, same for doing it via a HTML file.

I am stuck, thinking I may have to uninstall and then reinstall Firefox and then sync again.

Hello from New York City!

What is the procedure to move Thunderbird local folders from a laptop to an external disk drive? The Windows 11 laptop has run out out of local disk space.

Have installed ImportExportTools NG plugin but do not understand the all the folder export type options. https://github.com/thunderbird/import-export-tools-ng

After moving Thunderbird local folders to an external disk drive, will it be searchable? Any clues appreciated.

From a Thunderbird 128.10.0esr (64-bit) user on Windows !!. Thank you.
