I've just gotten my very first Mac and I want to import my bookmarks from IE off my WinXP machine to Safari on my new TiBook. I've copied a folder with all my bookmarks over to my Mac. Is there a way to import them all at once? I'd rather not have to open them up in Safari and then bookmark them one-by-one.

Thanks,
Mike

Import your XP bookmarks into IE for Mac. Then delete the bookmark and pref files for Safair. Upon first start up, Safari will import your IW Mac bookmarks. Then use Safari bookmark managaer to sort them out. Worked for me.
