terrypin Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 Before I tackle this myself I'm hoping maybe someone has already done some similar work and is happy to share? In the absence of specific freeware, which I'm also seeking, I'd like a macro that would quickly copy a bookmark (or multiple bookmarks) to my iPhone and two iPads. Without having to connect each device to the PC. (I do have iTunes installed but hate using it.) I have a Dropbox account so that possibly offers one starting point. Ideally, with a web page selected in Firefox (or Waterfox mostly in my case) I'd like to be able to copy it automatically to the iOS Safari bookmarks.

kunkel321 Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 I'm not familiar with the iOS side of things, but most PC based browsers let you export your bookmarks from within the bookmark manager. I think they get exporter/saved as a standard HTML file, so maybe you could import that into Safari (?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrypin Posted June 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 Thanks, yes, it is possible to export from Waterfox as an HTML. That's ALL bookmarks though, probably over a thousand here. (Time to prune!) I can then open it via Dropbox on the iPhone or iPad and then find and open the one I want (then re-save its bookmark). But that would be slower even than emailing myself the specific URL etc. So I'm still hoping for a neater solution, albeit not optimistically. Maybe the intuitive email route is the best I can do.

Cory Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 Most browsers have account synchronization including bookmarks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
