I need to transfer all of my old bookmarks from Internet Explorer 5.1.7 on my PowerMac 7300/500, to Internet Explorer 5.2 on my G4 iBook. I already tried dragging the bookmarks from my PM 7300 directly into the IE Preferences on the iBook.

When I open up IE on the iBook, the old bookmarks are not there? How can I get the bookmarks to transfer and appear just as they do on my PowerMac 7300? I need the bookmarks just as they should be, both in the Favorites Toolbar, and in the Bookmarks Menu.

Thanks.

Import favorite pages

1. On the Window menu, click Favorites.
2. On the File menu, click Import Favorites.
3. Click the HTML file that contains the links you want to import, and then click Open.

No worries, copied it out of the IE help file. Looking at it I don't even think it is Mac specific, I mean "window menu"? sounds like a windows term to me, I think they mean click on favourites in the menu bar!
