How To Save Your Bookmarks in IE, Firefox, Opera & Google Chrome


How To Save Your Bookmarks in IE, Firefox, Opera & Google Chrome.
Almost all the major web browsing programs now have a bookmark management feature built right into the software. There are many reasons why people would want to save a copy of their bookmark files. I might log onto as many as 5 different computers in various locations on any given day. I sometimes have hundreds of bookmarks on file f...or each PC.
It’s a frustrating experience when you stumble onto a good underground web page via page links only to find out later that the page is invisible in the search engines, so I tend to have a ridiculous number of bookmarks on multiple computers.
Saving bookmark files helps me save time relocating obscure web pages from multiple PCs. This tends to help me keep my sanity.

Step 1
Saving a bookmark file in Internet Explorer


•From the File tab, left click and scroll down to Import and Export and left click on it. The Import/Export Wizard will pop up. Just click the Next button.

•On the next screen, left click and highlight Export Favorites and click the Next button.

•Left click and highlight the Favorites folder and click the Next button.
•On the next screen, click the Browse button and choose where you want to save the file.

•You can change the name of the file here, but in the Save as type box, choose HTML fro the pull-down menu, then click Save.
•You can now see the file name and location you chose in the text box. Click Next.
•On the last screen, click finish. There will be an HTML file of your IE bookmarks in the file folder you sent it.

Step 2
Saving a bookmark file in Mozilla Firefox

•From the Bookmarks menu tab, left click, scroll down and highlight Organize Bookmarks and left click again.

•The pop-up window will be titled library. Left click on the Import & Backup button at the top of the box. Scroll down to Export HTML.and left click again.

Step 3
Saving a bookmark file in Opera

•From the File tab, left click and scroll down to Import and Export, then scroll over to the pull-down menu on the right and choose Export Bookmarks as HTML and left click.

•On the next screen, choose the destination folder from the Save in menu text box at the top of the screen.

•Again, you can change the file name from here if you want, but the file will automatically be saved as an HTML.

•Just click the Save button and you’re done.

Step 4
Saving a bookmark file in Google Chrome

Right now, exporting your bookmarks in Google Chrome (beta) for Windows is a problem. Actually, Chrome doesn’t allow exporting bookmarks to a separate file.
The feature will probably be added soon in later versions of the software. This might save you a little time pokin’ around before you figure out Chrome doesn’t have this feature yet.

It’s so easy, even a …well …a you know what can do it.
