Importing and exporting

Exporting from your browser

First save your browser's bookmarks to a file:

• Chrome or Edge: press Ctrl+Shift+O to open the bookmark manager, click the ⋮ menu at the top right and choose Export bookmarks.
• Firefox: press Ctrl+Shift+O, then Import and Backup → Export Bookmarks to HTML....
• Safari: File → Export → Bookmarks....

Bookmark Ace can also read XBEL and OPML files, Raindrop.io CSV exports, and its own backups.

Importing

1. Click Import in the toolbar of the Organizer.
2. Click Choose File and pick the file.
3. Leave Format as "Work it out from the file", and choose where it should go under Put it in.
4. Click Read the file.
5. Bookmark Ace shows what it found: how many folders and bookmarks, links it can't import (such as browser settings pages), and bookmarks you already have.
6. Click Add to my bookmarks. Or click Discard to change your mind.

Everything goes into a new folder called "Imported" with today's date, so nothing gets mixed up with what you have. Changed your mind later? Open Import again and click Undo import; the folder goes to the Trash.

Bookmarks you already had are still added. Use Duplicates afterward to tidy them.

Exporting

1. Click Export... on a folder's right-click menu, or open Settings and click Export bookmarks.
2. Choose a Format: Browser HTML works with every browser; the Bookmark Ace backup keeps every detail.
3. Choose What to export: everything, or one folder.
4. Click Make the file, then Download when it is ready. Files can be downloaded for 24 hours.

A backup of all your bookmarks is also made every night, and the last 14 are kept.
