Friend of the elves
I need to copy the bookmarks from Internet Explorer from OS 9.1 to OS X. Do anyone know where are they stored. Do you know if it is possible to share the Bookmarks between the two OS?? :confused:
 
Well what I would do is just open up the 9 version of Explorer, go to Manage Bookmarks, and then choose to export the bookmarks to the desktop. Then you simply have to go into the OS X version and import them into that IE. That's just what I would do though. I don't know if there's an easier way or not.
 
I've managed to find a way so that the bookmarks are identical in both OS 9 & X. So if I ever have to switch to the other OS, my bookmarks are always up to date.

In OS 9, your bookmarks are stored in in System Folder/Preferences/Explorer/Favorites.html.

In OS X, your bookmarks are stored in User/Library/Preferences/Explorer/Favorites.html.

Now all you have to do is make an alias of your bookmarks from OS 9, in your OS X version. Or vice versa.

Thats it. Works great!
