    My apologies if this has already been answered. Installed 7.2 one plus years ago. Only minor problems. Recently wanted to transfer my bookmarks to another profile in Netscape and find that my bookmarks.html file still has the same date as when I initially imported the bookmarks. In the older Netscape I had the option to "save file as" and replace the old bookmarks file with the newer version even if I only added one new bookmark. All my bookmarks can still be opened in the browser but only the older bookmarks are transferred with the bookmarks.html file. Can you help please. Thanks. Warthog

    Bookmarks(top menu)|Manage bookmarks|Tools|Export|save to whatever or wherever you want.
    And, you should get the current file. Another way would be to copy/paste the bookmarks.html from the Profile.

    Update Bookmarks.html

    Westside - Thanks. My apologies again, but I just thought of something and sorry I wasted your time. Was under the impression that 7.2 was using the old users folder which I transferred when updating to 7.2. Light bulb went on and I remembered that the user profiles are now under the Mozilla folder. Sure enough - all there and updated. Thank you very much for your time and appreciate your feedback. Warthog

    I am glad that it worked, and that you explained what went on.
