Moz Users? Import Mozilla Bookmarks

Import Mozilla Bookmarks

I'm trying to import my bookmarks from Mozilla 1.4 to my IE6
favorites.
When I do, the folder structure appears to be ok, but the bookmarks
are all messed up. Many of the folders that have lots of entries
under Moz have only 1 under IE, and it is a duplicate of other
folders. I've tried directly importing from Moz, and even exporting
from Moz to an HTML file, then the IE import. Both methods give the
same result.

Does anyone know how to make this work?

Anyone?

Suggestion: before we try to sort this out, why not update your version of
Mozilla? The latest stable release is 1.5, and I'm living dangerously by
using 1.6a.

Try the favourites convertor mentioned on
http://support.microsoft.com:80/supp.../Q152/6/81.asp

I would also look at the file that Mozilla exported, just open it in
mozilla, to check whether the file exported is the problem. If it is,
instead of exporting try using the bookmarks.html file from the Mozilla
user directory.

You might try what I do..

create a folder called "internet" or whatever, then copy your
"bookmarks.html" from Mozilla to there.

go into IE and point "home" and/or "favorites" to this folder and file.

that way your Mozilla bookmarks don't get messed with, and if you make
changes to them, it's a simple matter of doing another copy to your
Internet folder and overwriting.

Forgot to thanks everyone for their comments.

The "bookmark.html" tip worked, poster seemed happy.
