Transfering data from Firefox 3 to Flock 2.0.3
How do I import all of my data from Firefox 3? I have been using Firefox 3 for a while but I want to go back to using flock now that I am moving to a new PC. I can easily backup and restore my Firefox settings using Mozbackup. I have been able to use this to back up flock but there is no restore option. What I really want to do is restore the firefox backup into Flock.

Inappropriate?Try using the Import feature under the File menu, and choose Firefox. You can bring in cookies, passwords, bookmarks, etc. Does that get enough of your stuff across?

Inappropriate?This is only letting me import the bookmarks there are no other options. -
Inappropriate?Hi Flatpack,
You might need to create a new Flock profile and import from Firefox right at the start in order to get as much of your Firefox settings as possible. Try this:
(1) Quit Flock completely
(2) Locate your profile folder and move it to a backup location for safekeeping. (Make sure to move the whole "Flock" folder if you're on Vista.)
(3) Restart Flock
Now when Flock starts up, it should ask if you want to import settings from another browser.
Does that work better for you?
