Keeping IE and Mozilla/Firebird bookmarks synchronized?

[jrichrds]

Kind of doubt there's a way to keep bookmarks in IE and Firebird synchronized, but thought I'd ask.

With IE on a Mac it would be simple because it uses a bookmark.html just like Mozilla, hell with OS X you could symlink one to the other and they'd always be in sync.

That's what I was thinking, didn't notice the IE also. Not much of a way to keep it 100% automatically synchronized, I'm sure there are programs that do the conversion though, and you could run those every so often..


edit: Mac IE uses the same bookmarks.html as mozilla? Wow. Those MS Mac people are crazy

I use a freeware utility called "Favourites To Bookmarks And Back" to convert Moz. Firebird bookmarks to IE favorites (really for MyIE). Just search google for FTBAB.

It's pretty simple to import/export the bookmark.html (IE) and bookmarks.html(Mozilla) with or without a utility. jrichrds is looking for something to sync the two together.

BTW, I fixed the sync problem by not using IE anymore.

I use a program called Check and Get to synchronize bookmarks between Mozilla, IE, and Opera..... it's an irritating POS though and seldom seems to work properly, especially with Opera.

Give it a try tho, maybe you'll have better luck then I.
So far as I know it's the only tool that will automatically synchronize bookmarks across browsers.
