Use Xmarks to Sync Firefox Bookmarks to an iPhone or iPod Touch

I’ve been looking for a way to do this for a very long time and was happy to see Lifehacker post instructions on how to do this:

iPhones and iPod touch models can’t sync with Firefox bookmarks, but you can regularly push your bookmarks to them on a Windows system. The trick involves the Xmarks sync service, Internet Explorer, and a tiny system tray utility.

It’s not quite automatic, but the way blogger Shawn0 details his own solution for synchronizing his Firefox bookmarks to his iPod touch, it’s much better than a manual import/export of HTML files. And, as Shawn found out, some of the previous Firefox-to-iPhone solutions don’t work with the latest builds of Firefox (3.0 and newer, specifically). It’s not a tricky process, just systematic, and requires, at most, a right-click of a system tray utility (intended for Internet Explorer users of Xmarks) before you next sync your iPhone.

Organising your Bookmarks

April 21, 2009 Tips & Advice No Comments

Bookmarking websites you have visited and want to come back to is a great tool built into every web browser; however, unless you are organised they can very quickly become completely disorganised and you don’t remember what was on the site.

A very handy bit of new software called Only2Clicks allows you to create an easy to create, setup and navigate webpage that puts a visual snapshot of each webpage you have bookmarked. This means you do not just have a couple of words to remind you of what is on the website, but you also have the website home page in front of you.

If you need any assistance to setup and install please contact our Smart Technology Support team at zuuMedia.
