Synchronizing your existing favorites and bookmarks

You can import your existing browser bookmarks or favorites to your AllMyfavorites account, by importing a bookmarks.html file. Below you can see how to make the bookmarks.html file from Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. (Most browsers can make a netscape bookmarks.html file - so you should be able to import your bookmarks from other browsers too. You will have to see your browser help if you don't know how to make the bookmarks.html file)

When you have exported the bookmarks.html file, you can import the bookmarks into your AllMyFavorites account:

• Login to your AllMyFavorites account
• Click the "Sync" button to the right
• Upload your bookmarks.html file. (See below how to create a bookmark file from your browser)
• When your bookmarks.html file has been uploaded, you will be able to select/deselect the categories/bookmarks you want
