I recently added a new HD as the boot drive. I took my old one and installed it too. I and trying to recover files from it and move them to the new hd. I am having a problem with figuring out how to export my bookmarks/favorites from IE and Firefox to the new hd. I can't run IE or FF from the old drive to export them because when I do it actually ends up running the version I have installed on the c drive which has the default BM's and favs when newly installed. Thanks for any help.

you have your old drive as a slave....correct? If so, click on the slave drive, open it, click on documents and settings, click on your name folder, then click on the favorites folder. Copy and save them onto your new drive. That works for IE. Some HELP in posting on Cnet plus free progs and instructions Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back your result

sterling, SWAG, do a search on your computer for the file bookmarks.html on your old drive. That file's your bookmarks in Firefox. Seems to me you oughta be able to either copy it to the new drive and import or just import it directly. Never done it, so dunno for sure. HTH. Ed in Texas.

I took my old one and installed it too If you meant you hooked it up as slave drive, take ownership of it. Read THIS. figuring out how to export my bookmarks/favorites from IE and Firefox to the new hd Assume that you have already taken ownership of the slave drive, 1. To import IE bookmarks into IE6/IE7, follow this procedure. BTW IE6/IE7 bookmarks consist of URLs stored under the directory or folder c:\documents and settings\username\favorities 2. To import FF bookmarks into Firefox, follow this procedure. BTW firefox bookmarks.html is a single repository file stored in the folder c:\documents and settings\user name\application data\mozilla\profiles Hope this helps i_Xp/VistaUser
