Ok, Gerald.
Thanks for the clarifications. Tom Behler From: Gerald Levy [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, January 16, 2016 12:57 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Adding Favorites In Firefox No, I don’t think there is a way to accomplish this. The favorites list is connected to IE, and the bookmarks list is connected to Firefox. There is no way to add items to the IE favorites list from Firefox, nor any way to add items to the FF Bookmarks list from IE. Plain Old Favorites was really designed for IE users who want the ability to access the favorites list from Firefox as theirsecondary browser. I use IE 11 as my primary browser and only use Firefox with Webvisum to solve image captchas, although now that I have signed up with Rumola and can solve image captchas with IE, I will probably use Firefox even less frequently.

I guess I could delete them one at a time from Firefox, and start over again, but I’m just wondering if there might be an easier way.

You can only add them in IE and then access them in Firefox through Plain Old Favorites. In Firefox, if you want to add a web page as as a favorite, it will be added to the Bookmarks list, not the Favorites list. So if you want to use Firefox as your primary browser, you will have to deal with two lists of favorites: the favorites list from IE and the bookmarks list from Firefox itself.

A while back, I imported internet favorites from Internet Explorer to Firefox using the add-on tool called plain old favorites. http://www.iosart.com/firefox/plainoldfavorites/ Since I now am using Firefox as my main internet browser, I’m interested in adding some additional favorites to my favorites list. I can find the tab that says “add favorites”, but when I attempt to do this, nothing happens. Jaws says nothing, and I appear to get a blank screen. Am I missing a step here, or is there a different way to add new favorites to my favorites list in Firefox? Thank you! Dr. Tom Behler from Michigan
