Can't import/export jsonlz4 bookmark files

pizzipie · 10-23-2023, 12:55 PM

Hi,

I just updated my computer from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04.

I have bookmark files I want to import to the firefox.

When I go to Manage Bookmarks there is no Import and Export library option.

Mozilla has no help subjects that cover this. Anyone have the same problem and a solution ??

Thanks, R

Hi, I'm using the same version of firefox 118.0.2 with no problems importing and exporting bookmarks.

Hi, have you right clicked in the top bar and made sure you can see the menu (File, Edit etc etc)? You can then click Bookmarks/manage Bookmarks and you will find Import & Backup in the top part of the window that opens.

nothing worked. Can't see "edit view history etc" the whole line is dark with dark text.

They keep "improving" ? and make it harder and harder to use! UGH!!! Leave the damn firefox program alone is what I say.

Are you using a dark theme? Maybe switch to light so you can see the menu text etc easier, fix your bookmarks and then you will be set.

Another option, hit CTRL+SHIFT+ o and a window opens, hit the "import and bookmark button.

WELL DUMB ME !!!!!!!!

I finally discovered the menu bars have a dark gray background and a black foreground (text). You can't see them.

Now all I have to do is find out how to fix that.

Thanks for time and help people!
