I have many favorite addresses, how can I transfer them to a new computer? Thank you...
 
Simply copying the favourite folders contents from your current machine across to the folder on the new machine should work. There are now also a couple of internet sites that allow you to upload and store your favourites, and download them on others.
 
Hi allpiper,

Are you talking about your IE favorites?? If so, then you can export them out to a file and import it into your new computer. To do this, click on "file,Import and Export, then choose to export favorites. It will prompt you for a location to save it to. Then just copy that file onto your new system, and use the same tool to import it.

Hope this helps... mot98
