If the file you transferred was a real bookmarks file from an older version of SeaMonkey, do the following: 1. On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks]. 2. On the Bookmarks Manager window menu bar, select [Tools > Import HTML]. 3. On the Import Wizard window, select the File radio button and then the Next button. 4. On the Import Bookmarks File selection window, navigate to and select the file you transferred and then select the Open button. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
