Any ideas please? if anything else fails, you could try to export your FF bookmarks to a html file and then retrieve them in maxthon using the import tool.

BugSir006 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Due to Firefox 's data encryption tecknology,you can only export its bookmarks to a html file as ODY said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weybrew Posted April 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Thanks to -ody- and BugSir006 for their comments. OK, I can handle the html file export/import, but if this is normal for FF, why does Maxthon show the option to import FF bookmarks if it can't handle this task...just wonderin'.
