    I do not know if there is something wrong with my web browser (Firefox 13.0.1) but I cannot find where to export/import bookmarks. I've done this before. But, I cannot find where/how to do it. I've used Firefox's Help but there is no import/export option where they say it should be.

    I am using 13.0.1 and the Bookmarks backup is there.
    FireFox > Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks (Ctrl+Shift+B)
    That will open a new window
    Import and Backup > Backup or Restore or Import or Export

    I recommend MozBackup, it can backup a lot more than just the Bookmarks

    Goldenskull I can't follow the rules

    If your using any thing newer then 10.0 versions of Firefox i can say that there are going to be some major issues happening at some point in time i would recommend that you guys revert back to a earlier version.I do not trust any thing past 5.0 version any thing past 5.0 has been very buggy in some way.

    If you want to revert Firefox too a earlier version

    I would get it from here.http://filehippo.com/download_firefox/history/

    And on top of this buggy issues any thing past 5.0 version alot of addons will not work.I still use the 4.0version be cause the Addons i use will not work for newer versions of firefox.

    Very bad idea to run an old FF version (other than 3.6) with unpatched critical security holes.
    FF 4 http://secunia.com/advisories/product/34777/
    FF 5 http://secunia.com/advisories/product/36309/
    FF 6 http://secunia.com/advisories/product/37619/
    FF 7 http://secunia.com/advisories/product/38177/
    FF 8 http://secunia.com/advisories/product/38734/
    FF 9 http://secunia.com/advisories/product/39200/
    The only version 10 listed is a mobile version.
    There is no info for version 11, 12 and 13.

    Better to go back to 3.6, which is patched http://secunia.com/advisories/product/28698/
